Food Abundance

When it comes to being vegan, there are a number of ‘methods’ that some people tend to stick to as if it was a gospel, and at times, they may even push their agenda on others as if their way of eating is the only way. So with that being said, I’ve never been one to follow the crowd. I eat anything that’s vegan. Those who know me see that I cater to my sweet tooth in moderation, vegan donuts in particular. Good nutrition is a key element to good health and having a normal relationship with food is especially important for an athlete. However indulging in moderation is a vegan pleasure I partake in.

Building Your Body Naturally

Many people want instant gratification, and this leads to disappointment and setbacks that are often worse than the starting point. The goal should be about maintaining this lifestyle indefinitely. Natural Bodybuilding has longevity, whereas impatience can cause yo-yo dieting.

Transitioning

The best tip I could give you is to create foods that mimic what you are used to. With today’s abundance in vegan versions of common culture foods (such as Daiya, Tofurky, Field Roast, etc), you can’t go wrong. Find the ones you like and transition with ease. Focus on abundance instead of restriction.
