My husband and I have been eating this way for 6 years. I'm at a point where cooking like this is so easy. I can often take a traditional recipe & turn it WFPB. That chicken & rice casserole recipe can be made with brown rice instead of white. The chicken can be replaced with white beans. The cream of mushroom soup is replaced with a creamy homemade cashew sauce & sautéed fresh or frozen mushrooms. The butter or oil isn't necessary. Given enough seasonings, you don't need it.

I jumped in with both feet. I went cold turkey to avoid all animal products. I don't regret that, but I was overwhelmed as I didn't know how to make meals without those products. I am 72 and married over 40 years. My husband didn't want to join me, yet he does like what I make and eats much, much less animal products now. He is very supportive, too, thankfully. I was so overwhelmed at first that I wouldn't go anywhere because I was reading and watching videos to learn for about 2 months. It's been 11 months now, and I feel very confident and blessed to have changed to eat this way. I love food and cooking more than ever. I had gluten intolerance for 22 yrs but now can eat sourdough bread and noodles from Italy. No more gut pain or reflux. My advice to others is to watch Well Your World and read Dr. Mcdougall's book plus a few documentaries. Start with breakfasts, and then lunches and then dinners. I printed some of my favorites and put them in a notebook with dividers for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snack and desserts. I can make notes on them, too.

My biggest mistake was compromising my health and values due to other people. I was trying to people please and not inconvenience them. Often, others are upset thar I can't or won't eat what they made. I often bring my own food and tell them I am here to see them, not what they made to eat. Not compromising my health helps me stay on track. 😊

I really appreciate your videos and how you tell it like it is! I have been striving to be plant based/vegan for 2 1/2 years ever since I had a 99% blockage in my widow maker artery at age 60. The first six months I was very strict and went crazy trying to make all kinds of recipes. Finally my husband asked if I could just make the several dishes that we enjoyed and forget about the “experiments”. Your recipes are some of our favorites and I appreciate how simple they are to make. Your videos are also very motivating. Lately I have been straying from this lifestyle and need to get back to the basics and cutting out some of the foods that have crept back into my diet. Watching your videos helps me to do that. I recently bought some of your products to help make prep even easier. Thank you for all you do to support those of us who need to eat this way for continued health.

I started succeeding when I simplified my meals and prep. I really couldn't handle too many decisions at all. Every morning became steel-cut oats with berries or a banana. Every lunch became either soup and a salad or chili and a salad and I have designated bowls with covers so I can bring those to work and not spill. Plus, I have a square insulated bag from the grocery store and it fits my 2 bowls perfectly, so once again I don't have to think. Snacks for me are fruit and my cheat snacks are 100-calorie pretzels or lightly salted rice cakes or 5-calorie miracle noodles with tomato sauce. Dinner is the only meal I have to think about but I make it on Sunday and put 2 servings in the freezer and the rest in the fridge. My backup meals, in case I fail to make any thing are Plant Strong chilis and Amy's low-fat soup (which has too much sodium but it tastes good and is low fat and low calorie)

Eating enough is something I still struggle with. I am WFPB 100% now, but so eager to lose weight that I find it hard to stop counting calories and restricting. I am often very hungry, especially in the afternoon and at bed time, but I tell myself I have to use willpower to ignore it. I then start dreaming about junk: "Maybe a little treat is okay at the weekend". For decades I've been binge-then-restrict; losing weight then gaining it back. Hearing you talk about eating enough has helped 🙂. I might even be brave enough to delete my calorie spreadsheet! I'm looking forward to next Friday's show. Thank you.

Right on! I like the way you think. You've got me by 18 years, as I just hit the five-year mark of eating WFePB (whole-foods, entirely plant-based). I am a total batch cooker. I cook a fast meal on Saturday afternoons, where the fun and challenge is to try to make something that takes as little time as possible, with the goal of keeping it within 90 minutes, from the time I step foot into my kitchen until everything is entirely done. This meal will be my dinner for Saturday, a brunch on Sunday, and then breakfasts for the rest of the work week (I like dinner foods for breakfasts). Then, on Sunday afternoons, I make a more in-depth meal, which will be my dinner for that day and then dinners for the whole entire work week. I invested in two sets of Pyrex storage containers made of glass, with the plastic lids. They do a fabulous job of keeping my leftovers fresh for that entire week. I, too, usually make something different each week. I'm always working on recipes. Hey, I LOVE to cook, what can I say -- but I know myself, and I know that I'm not going to want to cook after work. This arrangement, like I said, has been working great for five years now. 😄

I've been WFPB for over 12 years following the principles of calorie density, never use oils, don't eat sweets, and though I lost over 100lbs initially, I'd still love to lose 50 more. It's so frustrating to see how you guys and others eat, and hear about pounding starch, my favorite.

Sometimes you still need to eat more to kick in the loss. Someone else may have a better solution, but I’d start by upping foods with high fiber/water content. ie, eat what you normally would, then finish the meal with something high in fiber/water. Your body may still be storing and you may have to tell it everything is ok by eating more.

I don’t know why but something Dr. Gregor said help simplify the meal planning and helped me lose weight, he said instead of having a bowl of rice or something else with some vegetables in it, we have a bowl of vegetables And oh look, there’s some rice in it and some beans and maybe some seeds or nuts. Framing it in that way helps us to psychologically make the vegetables the centerpiece of the meal. Maybe that will help.

Dillon and Reebs are not paying me to say this: But they are 100% right in that after some time, you will stop craving all those bad foods you once ate. For five years now, I have been whole-foods, entirely plant-based. I describe what I eat as in the style of primarily Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn with a nice dollop of Dr. John McDougall thrown in, as well. I LOVE to cook, even though I'm not particularly skilled at it, so I virtually never go out to eat, choosing to make all my meals instead. I don't remember exactly when it happened, but maybe after a few months or so is when I noticed that I started craving all the new plants and complex carbohydrates (aka starches) that had become my food-consumption norm. Trust me, I know in those early days you'll be thinking to yourself, "There's no way I'm not ever going to NOT crave my beloved cheeses and such," but it honestly happens. Just relax and give it a little time. 😃

I don't know if this is a mistake, exactly, but maybe in some ways? I went WFPB very gradually, over a year or two, and I wish I had done it overnight. I didn't have any health problems or extra weight or "bad" numbers that I could point to, but I'm sure I would have noticed a huge change in how I felt if I had done it quickly. I think easing into it works for some people, but I also think there are people who would be more likely to stick with it if they could see a dramatic difference in how they feel after only a few days or weeks.

Maybe this will help. I tell people I'm not technically vegan -- I'm WFePB (whole-foods, entirely plant-based). I say that everything I eat, right down to the last crumb, a vegan can eat. But not everything a vegan would eat, I would necessarily eat. What this means is that a vegan might eat those vegan sausages or those vegan cheeses or those vegan Impossible burgers or Oreo cookies, or potato chips, and so on. I would NOT eat any of those things, and that's because they're full of oils and sodium and processed sugars. Veganism is technically a moral stance and has nothing to do with one's health. But someone who is WFePB, on the other hand, they not only stay away from ALL animal products, they also stay away from all cooking oils, keep a very close eye on total daily fats (keeping fat consumption in the range of 10% of all daily calories), keep things as sodium-free as possible, and try to avoid excessive amounts of processed sugars. To get you started, I would recommend two books: "Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease," by Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn; and "The Starch Solution," by Dr. John McDougall. (You can find both of those books on Amazon for only a few bucks.) And watch a bunch of these "Well Your World" videos. Dillon and Reebs are all about making this way of eating simple by offering easy meals to make that are delicious, filling, and of course, nutritious. Good luck. If you stick with it and get the feel of it, this way of eating will become second nature; I guarantee it. 😃
@juanitaevans27156 ай бұрын
@@Jim_L Thanks so much for replying. WFePB sounds like what I've been doing. I have eliminated sugars (as far as I know). Not sure how much natural sugars from fruit is too much. Would pure maple sugar and raw honey be okay in smoothies? I will definitely look into those books. I have been pre-diabetic for 2 years and definitely want to do this for my health. Again thanks so much for the recommendations.
@Jim_L6 ай бұрын
@@juanitaevans2715 Hey, you bet -- you're welcome. I am not a doctor, so keep that in mind. But it is my understanding that the sugars you get in whole fruits (not fruit juices) is nothing we need to be concerned about, because when you're eating the fruit, you're getting all the fiber surrounding those sugars. Personally, if I were to make a smoothie, I'd just skip the maple syrup entirely. The fruits should make the smoothie sweet enough. But if you really need more sweetness, then so many WFePBers like adding medjool dates to things. As far as your pre-diabetes is concerned, if you make the switch to eating this way, you should easily eliminate your pre-diabetes. Even the vast majority of folks with full-blown Type 2 diabetes who start eating this way completely get off insulin. I know it sounds crazy, but it's true. Here's another WFePB KZbinr who you might get into. His hero is Dr. Joel Fuhrman, but quite honestly, all the iconic plant-based medical doctors all pretty much advocate the same eating style, with only slight differences. This KZbinr is HappyVeganEating. He once had concerning health issues, made the switch, and has never felt better. He's all about cooking your own foods.

Thank you , I like , and agree with all you said. I am trying wfpb, spouse not at all, I'm a diabetic, I can not eat a lot of starches, I'm always hungry, is there a solution for a diabetic to thrive on a wfpb diet.

My biggest mistake: taliking about veganism. I have really changed my thoughts on this, and just do my own thing.

I agree that it takes time to not crave foods. I used to enjoy chips, crackers, etc and now I could care less. Same thing with the alternative meat/cheese products. It was a good stepping stone, but don’t care for those either anymore.

I’ve been on a month and sugar sweets are the worst craving for me. Also those granola bars with peanuts are a weakness I try to have fruit but the cravings are real and hard to break. I’m sure you have a video somewhere about that I have not found yet.

Wonderful video and I've made all of those mistakes and are still making them. I do pretty good for 3 or 4 days and then I get so weak and so tired then all I want to do is sleep. I am taking good supplements for B12 from compliment and extra vitamin d but I'm not see 0:04 seeing the results I would like. I've lost a few pounds this last week but I need to lose 20 lb according to my doctor or she's going to force the issue of medication. She put me on metformin once before and I said no I wasn't going to take it. And now she's talking about many other pills that are available and I resisting so she gave me 6 months to change my lifestyle and change my numbers. I have spent so much on trying to make this lifestyle change I just can't see spending more but I know it's the best way to live. I just can't eat enough to make it work.

I have been working with WFPB diet for about 15 months now. My purpose is because of my health issues. I got sidetracked with "Vegan" commercial products that look and taste a lot like cheese and meat. My health took a turn for the worse. Stick with Whole Food.

You showed a soup and it had corkscrew pasta and maybe potatoes and carrots. What was it? It was not the potato and corn chowder. This one had pasta in it.

It is our No-Chicken Noodle Soup. You can watch the video for it here, kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y6DNq4WIps14p80

I think another mistake is trying to do it “perfectly” whatever you think that is. Puts too much pressure on you. I’ve eaten this way almost 12 years.
