VEGAN WEIGHT LOSS
What is veganism?
(Keywords: VEGAN WEIGHT LOSS, chiropractic help, free weight loss programs, lower back pain)
VEGAN WEIGHT LOSS can be stated without fear of contradiction. Go off meat and all animal products and you will lose weight. The average vegan is more than 10 pounds lighter than a meat eater.
Veganism is more than being a vegetarian, ie eating no meat products. Most -isms come in various degrees of extremism, thus under Catholicism some (a dying breed!) will use absolutely no contraception, and some use it freely!
In like manner, some vegetarians will drink milk and eat cheese, eggs and perhaps even fish and fowl. But veganism is more. It's really a whole lifestyle exluding the use of any and all animal products. No leather shoes, certainly no furs and no animal products of any sort for food. Perhaps even no B12 injections, because they are of an animal source.

"The time will come when men such as I will look upon the murder of animals as they now look on the murder of men."
Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519)
Is it safe?
Vegan weight loss is safe - if it's carefully planned. Simply excluding all the animal products you were eating, and continuing with what remains in your old diet is certainly not advisable. But, even if there are certain difficulties with the vegan diet - which there are - because of the profound ill effects of obesity and disability associated with it, a change to veganism will almost certainly benefit your health, if you are obese.
Vegetarians who eat a few eggs, and perhaps some dairy products, don't have to be too concerned about the balance of grains and legumes in their diet, or about vitamin B12 deficiency which causes a very serious illness called Pernicious anaemia. But vegans have to plan their diets very carefully if they are not only going to lose weight, but remain healthy.
Is VEGAN WEIGHT LOSS an Extremism?
It's the extremism of certain vegan groups like PeTA that raised the ire of many Americans recently. By likening fat American women to whales they have invited the anger of friend and foe alike upon their shoulders. Are VEGAN WEIGHT LOSS shock tactics justifiable?
" All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves.
We must die to one life before we can enter another. "
Anatole France, Nobel laureate
Whales
To be a whale, if you are supported by water, is stunningly beautiful and healthy. But on dry land, beached whales suffer and die long before their time. That applies to real whales and human whales too. First and foremost PAIN with a capital P. Obese people are far more prone to arthritis.
And then comes strokes, heart attacks, diabetes, high blood pressure and several dozen other miseries.
FROM THE COAL FACE: FREE WEIGHT LOSS PROGRAMS
In the days when I could not avoid losing a patient for any reason, I confess to being a less-than-good doctor. I had my own needs to consider, and stayed well away from prickly issues.
Now I am abrupt and direct. Such is the Dutch manner. It's called speaking the truth. In the process I lose a few angry and irritated patients. Too bad, because I save some from the misery that lies ahead.
Yesterday I was consulted by three young women, let's call them Stephanie, Helene and Anja. All three six months ago were 30 odd kilograms overweight. That gives them a BMI of over 35.
A Body Mass Index ( bmi ) of over 35 is extremely serious.
Six months ago all three had significant low back conditions, and plenty of pain. At 30 they were miserable.
Stephanie took me seriously, and decided to follow our
FREE WEIGHT LOSS PROGRAMS ...
She has lost 19 kilograms and is a totally different person. Not only has her serious back problem cleared up, but she's managed to get a job and is actually a very attractive young lady.
Helene has lost 21 kilograms following a vegan weight loss diet. She lives on a large barge with her husband and three children, transporting diesel from Rotterdam to Berne in Switzerland. Although she had no serious lower back pain, she did regularly have a disabling ache.
LOWER BACK PAIN
Despite my bullying, Anya hasn't lost a pound. She's also a smoker, double trouble. Perhaps I have done her a disservice by fixing a very serious sciatica of some nine months duration, thus she sees no urgency to lose her weight.

Instead she has opted for an operation where a tight restrictive band is placed around her oesophagus, stopping food from entering her stomach. It's made her feel nauseous...
A beached whale?

get it off or face having to swallow bucket loads of pills, operations, pain and an early death.
This has nothing to do with PeTA racism, sexism or any other extremism. It's all about PAIN. And pain does discriminate. It goes mercilessly for the beached whales. Are you one?
OVER-INDULGENCE
Whilst most obesity is due to poor diet rather than glutony, some of my patients at Chiropractic Help are grossly obese simply because they eat far too much.
May I humbly suggest you seriously suggest cutting back on 30% of what you eat, and making a donation to the African Enterprise Street Children's fund. That way you'll save your life, by eating less, and saving your knees and hips from painfully debilitating arthritis, and that of 10 African children who could survive on that saving. One million children die every year in Africa of starvation. Africa Enterprise Children's fund:
So, Anatoly France's pertinent words invite the question. Are you ready to die to cup cakes, fizzy soft drinks, chocolates, and generally foods stuffed with carbs? Before you can enter the world of less pain and good health, some part of you has to die.... unfortunately, in this instance, you can't have your cake and eat it.
I can feel it, there's a titanic struggle going on in your heart. Make TODAY one of the most important
RIGHT CHOICES
you will ever make. Choose less pain. Choose naturally good cholesterol levels. Choose a life without Type II diabetes. Choose a life without heart disease, or a crippling stroke. Choose a life without pills. Choose vegan weight loss and get those pounds off. Die to cupcakes...
ESSENTIAL AMINO ACIDS
Amino acids are the essential building blocks of the tissues of the body. Without the proper spread of these proteins, vegetarians can get a nasty disease called Kwashiorkor. The children of vegetarians and anyone on VEGAN WEIGHT LOSS are particularly susceptible. Google kwashiorkor if you want more info.
Sesami Tahini is particularly rich in two amino acids that vegetarians find difficult to get. Delic stuff used in the making of hummus (chickpea garbanzo bean dip) and many other delicious foods like Baba Ghanoush. Yes, it's Mediterranean in origin.
Now it's my turn to put both feet in! Why is it that anything to do with sex, booze, cigarettes is a serious sin, but obesity is absolutely kosher? No problem with tucking into chocolate cake after church, but a glass of wine...
Scripture teaches that each Christian should consider him or herself the temple of God. Caring for the Temple is going to be the title of my next book. The fifth. You can find the others at the Bernard Preston site.
At church a month ago I met an old friend, a truly delightful lady, but complaining of a painful, arthritic knee as all the obese end up doing. Bone on bone. I wondered whether to say something to our friend, truly a beached whale, wife of a minister. Wrongly, I held my tongue. Last week she had a very serious stroke, and is struggling for her life.
Food abuse, just like alcohol and tobacco abuse knocks on average ten years off life. And the last years are a misery.
Christian hypocrisy. Let's hear more from the pulpit about the sin of glutony, padre!
"Their end is destruction, their god is the belly..."
