Well, to put it mildly it didn't jive with me at all. I was a little surprised but over all I ended up even gaining weight! Weight loss wasn't my goal it was simply to try a new way of eating. It was an eyeopener for me to learn how different body types really do require different food. I have known for a while that I need to take it easy on the wheat but other than that everything is game.
The experiment also brought many different cook books and recipe ideas that I had never even thought of before! That was really fun because I like to cook, a lot. It is my moment at the end of the day when I keep my mind busy enough to let go of the day and the kids are usually, mostly occupied.
A couple of recommendations for folks who want to eat less meat:
Veganomicon: Great book overall. I use this multiple times a week.
Vegan Slow Cooker: My newest addition with several real winners including Indonesian Stew and African Peanut Soup.
Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World: Amazing cupcakes! They are all winners.
And below are some other non-vegan cookbooks that get regular rotation in my kitchen.
