Hi! 14 year vegan Mom here I’m unsure why your videos showed up in my feed about a week ago, but I have sat and watched them all. And while dr mcdougall isn’t new to me, nor this information, I still sat and watched. I can tell you this. I’ve been vegan before there was any content or real books about vegan recipes, over the years this community has had so much confusion and misinformation. There’s been some good ones who have come and gone, (and there are still some good ones) you have so much grace, and you convey your message so beautifully and well informed from your perception and experience. You are a refreshing welcome change to this community and I stop watching vegan content years ago. Don’t stop you natural beauty. This community needs you.

[@PlantifulKiki]

you made my day! thank you so very much!!

[@michellem7290]

I just discovered her this week too! I got excited, showed my husband... he saw the before and after pics of her husband and just said, "I'm in!!!"

[@karenh.192]

“Girrrl I am Latina, diabetes is REAL for my people. I cannot be eating potatoes.” same here amiga! I’m new at plant based eating almost two months in and 15 lbs lighter! Huge fan, always looking forward to your vids! 💕

[@FitNaturalBelle]

I have been following HCLF you tubers for years and you are the one that has simplified it the most which has been super helpful!!!!

[@PlantifulKiki]

Thank you so so much! That was the sole purpose for starting my channel....I wanted to show everyone how simple it can be

[@GlowySweetFabulous]

Yes that's how I feel. For some reason it just clicked with Kiki and I have already lost 8lbs.

[@snippylongstocking]

I completely agree with this! Kiki has made it so simple ❤. I told my daughter about her and she has now lost a lot of weight and is gaining her health back!

[@laurarauhauser2350]

Binge watching Kiki! Have lost 11.5 lbs already!

[@krissyswearingen7739]

Laura Rauhauser same! Great information and I’m just starting.

WOW THIS IS MOTIVATION, I RECENTLY JUST LOST over 100lbs IN 5 MONTHS ON (OMAD ONE MEAL A DAY ) VEGAN PLANT BASED DIET BUT IM STILL WORKING NOT DONE YET😂 💥💥💥

[@LM-dg1hl]

Our story is so similar, and I'm forever grateful that I found this channel because you keep me motivated. As a 38-year-old mother and wife, it is nice to see someone living a semi-normal family life instead of constantly going on organic retreats in Bali and staying skinny while eating fresh coconut and nut-acai bowls every day. Potatoes work! The 50/50 plates WORKS. The Starch Solution is an ideal way of eating. And I agree with you on this: adventures and experiences always trump things. Keep it up, woman!

[@LilacsAdore]

Same, 50/50 plate for the win

[@PlantifulKiki]

awww thank you! Potatoes are life!! And im so glad you are staying motivated!!

[@TheDel1lah]

Totally agree. I laughed so much about the “organic Bali retreats” so not typical and normal. 😁

[@vkklynn88]

@TheDel1lah I laughed hard too!! 🤣

[@esjebesje8638]

I’m also 38 and mom of 4 kids. Not going on retreats. 🤪 just normal fruits, veggies and potatoes ❤️👍🏻

[@Jamesqqj]

My impatient self can't wait to see where this journey takes me 6 months from now. I'm on week 8 and have lost 15 pounds. Going up and down the stairs has become easier!

you're doing awesome!

[@danielleramos9686]

wow girl!!! how inspiring!! keep it up!

[@IamVictoriaT]

How’s your journey going?! I’m starting today 💕

[@Jamesqqj]

@iamvictoriaT I lost 40 pounds.

[@chrissyblack2719]

I was pescatarian for 3 years and loving it, but I joined the eat your veggies challenge with you & High Carb Hannah (started it before the official first day) and ditched the fish. Since then, I'm down 15 pounds and I'm continuing to follow the Starch Solution way. I have a lot of weight to lose, but I'm taking it one day at a time. I've watched Hannah for a few years and adore her, but for some reason, you were the one I was able to connect with and actually decide to do this. Thank you Kiki for the continued motivation & inspiration 💞

[@PlantifulKiki]

15lbs!!! thats amazing!! you're doing so great!

[@CompostWatcher]

That's why we need both of them.

[@VeganGroceryLife]

Me too! I have been watching Hannah since she was dating her husband. But I clicked with Kiki more. Still love to Hannah though.

[@chrissyblack2719]

@@VeganGroceryLife Yes, love Hannah & Derek...can't wait to see how their house turns out! Both Hannah & Kiki are down to earth & relatable!

@Jayme Janelle Thank you ❤️ Eating this way is so easy. My husband & son think I'm kinda nuts, but I don't care. They're both meat eaters, so they just don't understand.

[@christiner5579]

I wish I found you a year ago. I struggled on the keto diet, which is a complete opposite. Rewiring my brain has been the hardest part! Can't wait for your cookbook! Love your recipes. Thank you!

[@ElinevanderLaan]

I started WFPB two years ago and shed 140 pounds to far. It's taking time but I'm so happy I'm in a healthy weight range right now and have such an improved quality of life. Over the next few months I'll hopefully lose the last 20-25 pounds and your videos are so helpful in my journey. X

[@trishfriesen8943]

I’m not sure why but your story n food breakdown really made me understand how to do this. I am in week 8 and my weight is going down!!! I thought I couldn’t lose weight because I never have BUT I get it now. Thank you for making it simple Kiki!

[@gyallington]

omg i HAVE to agree, you explained this PERFECTLYYYTTYYY. i am so ready to start, im going to update this comment section in a few months!!!!

This is definitely what I needed to hear! Thank you so much for the motivation!

[@frenchie4882]

I have been struggling for years with GI upset and general malaise. I know it’s diet related, but even at the recommendation of dietitians, still haven’t found a cure. I’ve been considering this diet for a while and thanks to the simplicity of your videos and recipes, decided to try it. Currently feeling better than I’ve felt in years! I agree with other commenters that this community needs you. Thank you!

[@analavenderspath3610]

Sending you much love. Thank you for helping me on my own journey. It's been a blessing 🙏.

[@nc139]

Thanks for this. These last few weeks, I have struggled so your message about it being a journey is encouraging.

[@stephmargles1983]

Oh just what I needed today, I’m on the 3/4 week slump and although I’ve lost 13lbs in the last 5/6 weeks, I’ve had a few slip ups with meals not being 100% perfect and was starting to panic, I love the bit you say about your on a walk, a journey. I’m also going away to see family in a week and it’s my birthday too so I know I will eat naughty things, and family already struggle to accommodate just vegan food, let alone a more complicated diet... but it’ll be fine, I’ll do what I can and enjoy it all! Thanks for your inspiration Kiki! My weight loss is all because I was recommended to follow you, still got about 60lbs to go though!!

[@PlantifulKiki]

you are doing so great!! enjoy your birthday!!

[@ginamorrison3483]

I love your videos. I’m definitely still at the beginning at my journey and you put no shame on messing up. I’m just going to step over those rocks and keep going... Thanks for the encouragement and making the transition simple enough to accomplish!

This is the motivation I needed this morning! I really relate to your story and really enjoy your videos and your vibe! I’m only at the beginning of my journey with some health issues to resolve and about 50 pounds to lose.

[@DuncanGardinerClassicalGuitar]

Thank you so much for another wonderful video! I've been enjoying all of your videos for about a year or so now, and I always come away feeling inspired and informed (and entertained!). I really loved your analogy of the journey of life with the occasional bump in the road, as opposed to the concept of falling off the horse and trying to get back on it! That struck a chord with me. Much appreciation from your fan and follower here in Australia :)

[@7natalieantonio]

Girl I love listening to you ❤️!! Thank you for all the information you share with us it’s so helpful , you are such an inspiration! I ❤️how your so knowledgeable & educated on health. I even love the calm tone of your voice it’s soothing to me ! Keep being you girl & keep giving us your awesome content!!! Huge Supporter❤️❤️

[@kellyg9468]

Thanks again for another great video, Kiki. This helped me more than I thought it would. Your message in the latter half of the video is so genuine and kind. Changing to this way of eating can be simple but it is soooo hard some days and the message towards the end helps with that. It's okay to not be perfect. It's okay to indulge when appropriate...make it a decision, move on and don't beat yourself up about it. Thank you!

I should add that from Dec-May I was down about 30lbs and 10 away from my goal weight. I have not been on the scale for awhile but I look and feel super fit. Dec-Mar were a big learning experience for me and I've since adapted more to this lifestyle. I plan to continue indefinitely. Looking forward to that cookbook and the "cheese" sauce was bomb!

Thank you so much for sharing your journey and showing how simple this can be.

[@reneebell1932]

Thank you, Kiki! 🙏❤️ Your message is so inspiring. I’m 46 and a long time vegan who has been having trouble keeping my weight where I like it after taking a desk job two years ago, even though I stopped cooking with oil. I’ve know about whole food plant-based eating for years, but something finally clicked for me (your KZbin channel is a big part of this click, for sure!). At 5’1”, I’m down 8 pounds (now at 111), my digestion is better, and my rosacea is clearing up. This way of eating makes me feel and look great without deprivation. Keep spreading your your beautiful light! You’re making such a positive impact in the world by sharing your story. ✨🌱✨

Thanks Kiki! You posted this July 24th. My 57th birthday. It is a gift to me because I am a newbie to eating whole food-plant based and had never heard of Dr. McDougal. I've only been eating this way for two months (I was tired of feeling menopausal and tired all the time and realized I needed a drastic change in my diet). Anyway, you magically appeared as I only follow a couple of channels, but I think i was meant for me to hear your message. You look glowing, healthy and happy and such an inspirational you tuber! So thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing your story. I know I can do this now because the food is delicious but mostly, I feel alive again! And your "what I eat in a day" videos really help stay on track. Love and blessings to you and yours!

[@MelissaVining]

Since doing your vege challenge (and continuing to eat a 50/50 plate) I've lost over 11 lbs, and have more to go. But best of all I feel less tired, have more energy, better skin and better periods. Thank you so much for making these videos xx

I’m so glad I came across your videos! I just want to thank you for sharing your knowledge and weight loss journey. I’m an athletic person but had been trying to lose 10 lbs for about 3 years. I was just stuck at 128. I had been doing ketogenic for years and it wasn’t working anymore. finally figured it was time to change! When you said I could eat potatoes and rice and beans, my mind was blown. I was scared to death to eat carbs!!! Anyway I’ve been doing the 50/50 plate for 21 days and I’m at 122 lbs . This is the lowest I’ve weighed in years. Eating until full and walking, without a lot of effort, just like you said. Just amazing, I dived in went cold turkey lol no meat no dairy or fat. The Starch Solution has changed my life. So thank you for all of gorgeous plates of food and the best cheese sauce. :)) oh and congratulations on your transformation you look beautiful!

[@kelleytolley4561]

I came across your channel while basically searching for healthy meals after completing a 3 day juice cleanse. Prior to my cleanse, my body was feeling achy and lethargic. Once I came across your channel, I started binge watching several of your videos and I can honestly say you are the first person that has actually inspired me to want to eat this way. I am not totally plant based yet, however, I follow most of your recipes as far as food prep goes. I do, however, incorporate small amounts of chicken and fish. With just the small changes I’ve made from watching your videos I’ve lost 7 pounds in 3 weeks. That being said, I must add that I am also menopausal and have not been able to lose a pound in the last 2 years even while working out. So, I want to say thank you for all you do to inspire people to be healthy. I’m looking forward to your future videos!

[@damarismitchell7355]

Thank You Kiki! You Are Rocking This Lifestyle!

[@arbbednnyl65]

Kiwi, I found your you tube channel at the beginning of June 2020, I binged watched so many of your videos. You inspired me to purchase The Starch Solution and I watched documentaries on plant-based food. I am down 25.4 lbs. (1/4 to my goal weight) since starting this new lifestyle on June 25, 2020. I fell so much better, I have so much energy and my blood pressure medication were cut in half. I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for inspiring me and giving me the motivation, I needed to lose 100 lbs. Because of you I am starting to enjoy life again!

[@Dawn-xf6bh]

Kiki -- You are a gift from God. Your honest, gentle manner and insight (born of real suffering and experience) are what others (like me) need to heal. I've lost 5 lbs on my way to 80. I just wanted to pause on my journey to say THANK YOU! God bless you and your family :-)

[@caseysnider414]

I love seeing other moms losing weight on a plant based diet! Love my non-parent vegan gals, too, but I gained all my weight after having babies so it’s so encouraging to see moms losing weight after the hormonal craziness of having kids! Thank you for sharing!!

You present the starch solution in a down to earth fashion. You make it look easy to do. I needed a simple approach to a new lifestyle challenge.

I started looking at your videos and realized I had purchased Dr. Mc Dougall’s two books years ago but just didn’t think I could do it. Your videos inspired me to try once again. On July 12 I weighed 216 lbs, my blood pressure was 150/94. Today July 26, my weight is 208.5 lbs and blood pressure 127/77. I had to take my pressure twice because I thought it was a mistake. Thank you, and keep inspiring folks like me.🙂

Thanks for this video, got inspired in march and mentioned to you about switching on high starch and low fat, and you had commented on wanting to know on how much I would lose, thanks for your gracious support and here is what happened, i tried it for a week and decided i couldnt deal with the volume of veggies and garbanzo beans and potatoes, i had to include and handle in my menu and the tons of cleaning that got involved with working with so much veggies, I was eating a chicken and sea food and cheese & white sugar centric diet,after being on it for a week, i gave up , told my self this is not for me, and during later march april and may i reverted to eating like i was before, but here is the good thing I did not give up, I did not stop watching your videos, and the transitional pain of adopting this new diet, so one day in june, I decided, this is it, I am switching and going to do a lot of prep work on how my meals should look like and made recipe journals, cleaned out my pantry and reorganized for the whole food plant based, was 166 in june when i started and have come down 5.5 in the six weeks i have been on it, and I am never going to go back to my previous diet with free oils and fried east indian foods, have found a way to make those recipes taste good and it becomes so much easier when you eliminate the sugar and high fat, your taste buds become so sensitive to the subtle flavors in the wholesome foods that are available to us, so the transition in june was not as bad, on this diet I am not worried about getting enough calcium or proteins cos your videos show us your diet and how fit you are, Thanks so much for putting all this out and with so much honesty about everything and keeping it real and simple and the importance of accepting and loving ourselves while we are on this journey and lastly glad to have viewed your video on washing hair with cold water in the kitchen, some three weeks into doing this,mine feels so much better and looks so much more healthier, I am truly inspired - Cant thank you enough KiKi...
