The Skinny
Vegan Diet
This diet plan is fancied by celebrity
and every day people alike. It is supposed to help you lose
weight so you can look like one of those thin girls in the
magazine ads.
The diet is based on a book, Skinny B**** but we won’t say that
word here. The name is over the top and so it the language in
the book but we are more concerned with the meat and bones of
this diet (there is plenty of the latter and none of the
former). This is basically a vegan eating plan that detoxifies
the body.
As
a vegan eating plan, there are no animal fats allowed. You’ll
have to leave the pig, cow, fish, and chicken at the door.
According to the creators, animal products are ruining our
organs and overloading our intestines.
Here are a few of the foods that are
allowed on the Skinny Vegan diet plan:
·
Organic fruits and
vegetables
·
Whole grains
·
Organic oils
·
Desserts made with raw
sugar and unrefined ingredients
·
Water, tea, and wine
(sparingly)
They do allow some processed foods like
soy ice cream and veggie fries but that’s it. Usually you eat
when you are hungry or every few hours, but here, you wait
until you are starving to know the feeling of true
hunger.
There are more banned foods than foods
you can eat. If you aren’t sure, anything that you are used to
eating is probably not allowed.
The
emphasis here is on cleaning out the body to reprogram it to
accept healthier fare. Unfortunately, this diet doesn’t list
nutritional information or go by any known guidelines for
daily nutritional requirements. In fact, many vegans and
vegetarians have issues with getting enough protein with the
absence of meat. You will encounter the same issue here. Other
vitamins are also probably missing from the mix here as
well.
Think about it: you will lose weight because you
are eating next to nothing when it comes to calories. The
hunger factor is high with the lack of food choices. If you
could stay on this diet for a month, you’d probably fall off
the wagon after that. There are other diet plans that allow
meat, fish, eggs, and dairy in moderation and you still lose
weight.
The
Skinny Vegan diet is definitely a fad. The meal plan lacks
proper accounting of nutritional value to make proper food
choices. Besides that, fish, dairy products, and lean meats
contain vital nutrients you can’t get naturally from other
sources. Look for something more satisfying to get
healthy
