How to Lose Weight on a Vegan Diet
Want to Lose Weight on a Vegan Diet Like I Did? Don't Make These 4 Mistakes

My meals are based on plants; I can eat as much as I want. I know that's not how it works, and yet I'd been telling myself this for years. I had already made the decision to cut out cheese, so surely I must have earned the right to eat whatever I wanted for the rest of my life? But here's the thing. Vegan food still adds up. Sugary cereal for breakfast, a huge bowl of creamy avocado pasta for lunch, sampling London's food scene for dinner, and throwing myself with wild abandon into my pot-a-day hummus habit eventually caught up with me.
Here's my advice: think about controlling your portion sizes. Eat when you are hungry (actually hungry, not just wanting to eat) and consider using a food-tracking app like MyFitnessPal. Doing all this really opened my eyes to how much food I was really eating in a day. Who knew hummus was so calorific?!
