Meal Planning for Weight Loss Introduction
With so many diets on the market today, it is no surprise that so many people are looking to lose weight. Obesity is on the rise in America, more so than it has been in the past. There is a definite reason for this increase in obesity, generally the fact that portions have become significantly larger since the 1950’s. This demand for larger portions has led to obesity, but at the time, the lifestyle was not sedentary by default. These days, there are many working from home, and more businesses focused on computer based jobs. Social networks like Facebook have created a number of office jobs, and the amount of exercise is simply not suitable for the amount of hours worked. There are some countries, Asian countries for example that employ mandatory exercise for office workers, but the same cannot be said for workers in the United States. That being the case, it is vital that we take our diets into our own hands, and stay away from what has become known as the Standard American Diet. What is the SAD diet exactly? Aside from the larger portions, the SAD diet introduces new challenges altogether.
The SAD diet introduces toxins and fatty foods that would not have been a part of our diet otherwise, and many would call it a diet of convenience. After all, who really has the time to make their own food before and after work these days? The 8 hour workday seems to have disappeared, and has been in fact replaced by a more favorable 12 hour day. This is mostly to increase profitability and productivity, and it works. As a result, people are always on the go and they need a good solution. There are two ways to address this problem. The first is to fall victim to the SAD diet, and the other would be to follow a diet recipe book, such as the one you are look at right now.
This book does not cover the Atkins diet or the Mediterranean diet, but rather the vegan diet that so many Americans are turning to. There is a belief held by many stating that the human body was made to consume plant life rather than animal life. This could be based in reality, or it could be a belief started by those wishing to preserve the welfare of animals. Either way, it is a noble cause, but even if you want to go vegan, you might not know where to start.
Within the virtual pages of this ebook you will find not only the secret to starting the vegan diet, but also a number of great recipes that will help you to get on your way. The last thing you want to do is jump into a vegetarian diet without knowing the proper way, especially considering the protein you will be missing in your new diet. It is important to note that leaving meat behind does not necessarily mean that you will be leaving TASTE behind. As you survey your brand new diet you will see a number of greens, and you likely have a great amount of experience with such foods. If you are one who shudders at the idea of eating nothing but celery or broccoli for the rest of your life, then you will be glad to know that these recipes give you the vegetarian meal your body needs without restricting you to the bland vegetarian diet that you have always envisioned. The following is just one example of the recipes you will find within these pages:
Salmon Burgers:
Ingredients:
1 can (14 ounces) wild caught salmon, drained
2 large eggs
¾ cup whole wheat bread crumbs
½ cup green onions, washed, trimmed and sliced thinly
1 tbsp whole grain mustard (Dijon mustard may be substituted)
salt and black pepper, to taste
a little bit of olive or vegetable oil, for cooking
Preparation:
Flake the salmon with a fork and mix together with all of the remaining ingredients in a bowl, stirring well to ensure that all of the ingredients are thoroughly combined. Refrigerate the mixture for 2 – 4 hours, covered; this will make it easier to work with. Form the mixture into four patties and heat a little bit of vegetable or olive oil (you could also use cooking spray, if desired), then sauté until lightly browned on both sides. Serve immediately.
The final thing covered in this book is superfoods. What are superfoods exactly? While the book does touch on the topic, in depth, we will say that these are foods loaded with nutrients and fiber. These are in fact your greatest chance for eight loss, and they help to improve digestive help. There are a number of foods that fall into this category from sweet potatoes, to kale, all the way to broccoli.
By utilizing this book, you are embarking on a journey – a journey that your body desperately needs to take. As you try these recipes you will find that you not only feel better, but that you also lose a considerable amount of weight.
Starting out with your new diet is going to be difficult, no one can deny that. You will need to make a commitment, and you will need to do your best to stick to that commitment. It would be best of course to make sure you have someone to hold you accountable, and perhaps even partake in the diet alongside you.
Now would be a great time to take a look at the various recipes in this book and decide whether or not this amazing diet is for you. Not only does it contain great vegetarian based recipes, but also a vast number of deserts for that after-dinner or lunch pleasure. It won’t be long before the effects of your diet finally take hold, and give you the life you have always wanted. As we said, it won’t be the easiest thing in the world, and the temptation to deviate will always be there, but you’ll soon have a clear view of your goals and a means to actually reach them.
Section 1: Vegan Diet Cookbook
Why Eat a Vegan Diet?
Many people choose a vegetarian diet for various reasons, some include it being a protest not to eat animals, others it is a choice to go strictly plant food for the health benefits. A vegan diet helps to control and maybe even prevent certain health conditions like cardiovascular disease, colon cancer, diabetes, diverticular disease, high blood pressure, and prostate cancer. Certainly, the vegan diet is highly nutritious.
There are varying degrees of vegetarianism. Some vegetarians will eat some foods from animals such as diary and eggs and even fish. Those are not who this cookbook is intended for. This cookbook is for vegans.
Vegans consume only plant foods, by eating plants that contain all the necessary ingredients to strengthen the immune system. Vegans, if they eat well-rounded foods, live very healthy lifestyles. Plant based foods provide all
