Vegans, vegetarians and the lactose intolerant: REJOICE. There is a weight loss program available online that works for you.

There are a growing number of people with an interest in healthy eating who are typically overlooked in most every diet scheme out there. Well, the goods news is, not anymore.

Finally, there is a fat reduction and healthy weight loss system that works for vegans and vegetarians as much as for anyone else. In fact, it is designed to work for the dieter, not the other way around.

Most slim down programs provide preset menus or prepackaged foods, few of which have the vegan or vegetarian in mind. Even among the very few that do, individual food preferences are rarely built into the diet template provided.

Even worse, most weight loss systems require that the dieter order books, menu packages and other literature associated with their product. There are not enough fully online programs that allow for the customer to download and store information on their computer and use online web site options to do the heavy lifting for them in terms of menu planning and food selection.

Of course, few if any of them take into account the tastes and the requirements that vegans and vegetarians require.

However, the good news is that now there is a new, revolutionary online weight loss and fat reduction program for those who consume foods different from the standard paradigm.

The system I have discovered after years of searching for a practical diet program is centered around and based upon a personalized diet generation tool.

The reason it works so well for vegans and vegetarians is simple. Before it provides the user with the 40,000 unique menu combinations, it requires the dieter to choose and enter the foods they want to eat. That is, the options that you prefer as opposed to what happens with most programs: they choose your options and provide the menu that they dictate. That does not work for most people and it especially does not work for those with unique diet requirements.

Consider what this user had to say about it:

“Thanks for not starving me. The last 4 diets I have been on have all told me to limit the amount of food that I eat, instead of telling me how to eat properly. Mail food programs have cost me a fortune and I am honestly glad I don%u2019t have to eat another one of those disgusting protein bars again. Your diet is awesome and I have been losing weight (now up to 9 lbs) consistently for the last 2 weeks.

Thanks for your support and for making weight loss possible. The program rocks!

Jenny Catelina, NY, NY”

Most importantly, this program is available entirely online. No need to wait for delivery or pay for the freight. Once enrolled, vegans and vegetarians login to their personal web site and choose the foods that they want to eat from within the diet generation tool. Once done just click the button and the program provides what seems like an endless stream of menus to choose from.

It is easy, it is convenient, it can be customized to the diet requirements of vegans and vegetarians, it works and most of all, it provides the information and programs necessary to not only take off excess weight, but keep it off permanently. Go for it!

The Basics:

Although the term vegan sounds like you are describing a being from a distant planet in a far off galaxy, a vegan is actually an earth-born human who has decided to adopt a healthy eating lifestyle. A vegan is a person who eats no animals or dairy products at all. Some of the foods excluded from the vegan diet are fish, milk and milk products, eggs, and honey. An extension of the vegan diet is the complete vegan lifestyle where a person seeks to exclude the use of animals for food, clothing, or any other purpose. Veganism is a lifestyle adopted by millions of people across the world and is a very viable alternative to a meat and vegetable diet.

Often when people think about becoming a vegan or a vegetarian they think about what foods they are going to have to give up and what they are going to miss. The alternative way to look at veganism is to think about what you don’t have to give up and what new foods and dishes you may discover as a result of your new relationship with food. If you’re not sure exactly what you would eat if you became a vegan, below is a small sampling of the foods that you could enjoy.

black-eyed peas, red beans and rice, cornbread,mac and cheese, spicy greens, barbequed tofu, sweet potato pie, fried okra, vegan bread pudding

For the black man who is considering becoming a vegan, you may be surprised that you won’t have to give up soul food. There are many restaurants out there that serve soul food for vegans and in addition you can find many recipes online that show you how to prepare many of the foods that you may eat right now (greens, cornbread, etc.) without the use of any animal products. Restaurants like Souley Vegan in Oakland, CA and the Caribbean-focused Strictly Roots in Harlem offer dishes that will definitely make you forget about those ribs and burgers.

What you may not know:

Widespread adoption of vegan diets in the wealthy, urbanized parts of the world would reduce the demand for feeding grains to animals, which would reduce energy and water consumption.

Some full blown veganism advocates believe in not using animal products for anything including clothing and shoes. Adopters of this philosophy are sometimes referred to as “cruelty free” or “earth friendly” vegans.

For those that don’t get the reference to vegans being from outer space, here is a link to a wikipedia article about vega. Vega is one of the brightest stars in space and has been extensively studied by astronomers, leading it to be termed “arguably the next most important star in the sky after the Sun”. There are also many fictional references to space vegans in movies and television including Star Trek, Babylon 5 and Space 1999. Of course most Star Trek fans know that Vega is a class M planet in the Vulcan solar system (where Spock was marooned in Star Trek The Movie 2009).

What you need to know:

Vegans are often at risk of Vitamin B12 deficiency as this essential nutrient is only found in animal foods. Vegans are recommended to supplement their diets with foods high in B12 to include yeast extracts, veggieburger mixes, vegetable and sunflower margarines, and breakfast cereals.
