I went vegan overnight and feel incredible 👌 best decision I’ve ever made. I always felt sick and had headaches.
So true! It has been the best decision I made as well. I used to have chest pain all the time but that went away as well as my anxiety/depression.
I agree I use to have a lot of back cramps, bloated, uncomfortable and gassy. Now I'm a lot better
@@_angelicr wow your anxiety and depression went away from going vegan? Wow thanks for commenting more info thanks
@@liztorres7291 wow this is amazing and it's motivating me ...info on how you started what you like to eat and what helps a lot thanks
"You have to be okay with standing alone sometimes" , She is so right! This is something we must apply in every situation. True life lesson.
Exactly

This pandemic has the shelves empty of meat, eggs and cheese. So this is helpful. Vegan aisles is always stocked 😂
5%LowBattery literally!
😂 😂 😂 Meat shortage coming too. I'm already researching lol
@5%LowBattery I need to be where you are because it's so hard to find plant based items in my area. As someone who grew up meat free, I can honestly say I have never seen vegetarian/ vegan items sold out like they've been 😭
Not where I'm at. Are stores are back to normal
5%LowBattery quarantine made me vegan 😂
I do vegetarian and vegan because l can’t completely do vegan but l will say you feel and see a difference in your body
Maria Lovely how did u eliminate food groups from your diet. Did u start certain meal time?
Me too 😊
I've been vegetarian for five years and eat vegan as much as I can and nothing at all changed on my body. I might be the only one
Ann Caldwell lmao this is me! I love veggies and fruits and I don’t often eat meat, that every now and then ya girl wants some bacon with her “eggs.”
Same
Because of you I went vegan I've literally watched all your vegan videos with a pen and paper lol everything was easy to find at the store and I don't feel overwhelmed😁 4th day in thank you!
Ooooh girl your highlight!! I subscribed. 🤩😍
you got this, keep going!! :)
I want to go vegan but I’m soooooo nervous and picky 🥴 my kryptonite is chicken. But I don’t know where to start 😔
Same, I’m on day 5 down 5 lbs because of her & Love Your Natural on here! My tip is to keep it simple and meal prep.
Yes she made me go vegan and I’m on day 5
25 seconds in... Kim you look so pretty in this pink girl 💕.
like straight FLAWLESS, just laid to the GODSSSSS
“You have to be okay with standing alone sometimes” yessss so true!!!
I'm a self declared flexitarian at this point. I only eat meat and dairy 2x a week. Hoping to make the big jump to veganism soon. As she said meal prepping and planning helps a lot. Awesome video !! 👍💖👌
Just be careful with the carbs. I was a vegan over a year and my sugar level went off the charts because all the carbs were changing to sugar..Just some advise because everybody body is different.🤗
I appreciate at your comment because the flexitarian style of eating has given me great results especially with my daughter. For me getting her involved allowed us both to not have a tug a war on snacks. The carbs I can also relate to and have since change up alot of my choices combined with intermittent fasting. I am feeling much more energy these days
Yep flexitarian here but hopefully going into veganism
Thank you this is where I am currently. I starting getting turned off of meat. I need to make adjustments for health reasons. This is so good.
@@angelarambo72 what kind of carbs were you eating
I just finished making curried chick peas in coconut milk, with brown Jasmine rice and corn with stir fried veggies.😋
Thank You for your comment. I was looking for additions to my veggie stir fry tonight for dinner 😊
Sounds delicious 😊
Also, zucchini and kale coconut soup.
Quarantine changed the way I looked at food. With no distractions I started seeing my food as just dead animals and I couldn't shake it. I just quit cold turkey and went vegan and honestly, I'm having a great time. I've been watching videos just to maintain my momentum and I'm so glad I stumbled on your channel!
Kim, these tips are spot on!! I have a few as well: 1. Start cooking/preparing most of your meals now if you don't already. Make cooking your norm. 2. Also, fall in love with produce. Start learning to prepare veggies/fruits that are so tasty you don't even realize you skipped meat. Try/retry new veggies. 3. Subscribe to Vegan CZcams channels for inspiration. This one is my favorite 😊
Awesome tips!! Thanks! I’m a newbie!
Who else likes the video before they even see it cause you know ALL of her videos are good? As soon as the notification comes on, I immediately like it. ❤️
I love this chic❤️
yes, yes and yes
Crystal McDonald guilty lol I love her
🙋🏾♀️me lol
ME!!!
For years now I cut out pork, red meats, and beef, dairy, I already been drinking almond milk I hate regular milk nasty 🤢 lol but l..... I currently eat chicken, seafood and turkey. So I’m trying I gradually transition I want to drop the turkey next !!
Veins With Glitter I’m tryin to cut meat from diet. It hard. Did u cut out red meat quickly?
@@kingdombeauty9174 I substituted turkey for red meat.
Diet twin!!! This has been my diet for almost a year now! I eventually want to become vegan, but kinda stuck right now. Ready to take that next step!!
hey girl if you need more reasons and motivation on why you should be vegan check out earthlings, it is a documentary on how animals are exploited for us as humans i really hope it helps you in your transition
I gave up beef and pork years ago, but I struggled with chicken. I went vegan for 30 days last month and now I’m pescatarian.
I love this video. I wish I could have looked at your other videos before I started my plant based journey. I went plant based in November of 2019 because I'm a type 2 diabetic and I had a serious scare. I had a blood sugar reading of 511 and my A1C level was 13.6. I knew I had to do something about my health. I went plant based and since November I have lost 35lbs and my levels have went down to 6.9. I feel so better now. Thank you for sharing your tips and I love your channel.
That’s amazing! Congratulations on your progress!
Glad you feel better and are healthier
That’s amazing! Congrats on your health journey!!
Amazing
"I started seeing animal parts on my plate" I felt that😩 I'm slowly becoming vegan. This video helped so much!
Wow! I was literally going through your old videos to assist me with the vegan diet since I’ve never tried it before and then BOOM you posted this. Thank you!
You got this!
GIRL, YES on the "everyone is a nutritionist". I had someone tell me, just recently...that Almond Milk has regular Milk. I damn near fell on the floor. Mind you I've been vegan for almost 5 years now. LOVE your channel and I have tried some of your recipes.
ha ha ha this made e laugh! Silly people sometimes :)
I've been vegan over 4 years now!! You were definitely someone who highly influenced me. All your meals always looked so fun and tasty. Love this video and love your hair
I kid you not I told myself I'm going to start changing my diet up and started preparing a healthy meal and this video popped up.🙈 I guess this is confirmation I'm on the right track. Great video. Much love 💖💖
A.sweet same
My mom and sister are "nahsayers" I'm starting my vegan and spiritual journey but I'm not telling them ima keep this one to my self🤣
Thank you for making this!!! ❤️ I love how truthful you are in saying you just have to be okay with being the oddball out and also about how people are rude about people being vegan, but it’s about them not you. Thank you! Also, you are so beautiful!
I love watching your videos. Everything you’re mentioned in this one reminds so much of plant base lifestyle. Thank you so much for all your tips and meal planning.
I love how informative this was Kim. I’m vegetarian slowly transitioning (seafood is my kryptonite) and your videos and recipes helps. Thank you for always sharing with us.
Quani Mac Just a FYI vegetarians don’t eat any seafood, pescatarian’s do though.
I love the vegan crumbles. I no longer purchase ground meat and no one can taste the difference. I've made spaghetti, lasagna and a number of other dishes with it. I am not Vegan but I do love incorporating vegan meals/ingredients into my diet. Thanks for your videos I always watch to see what new items to try or inspiration for my next vegan dish!
I'm not vegan but would try this. Where do you purchase the crumbles?
I just made a vegan lasagna but couldn't find any vegan crumbles so I improvised by buying Gardein vegan beef burger from a local grocery store and tofurky Italian sausage from Trader Joe's and blend the two and it came out like a nice crumble and used in the lasagna, it was delicious my husband and mom loved it as well and couldn't tell if it was vegan.
Yasss!! It’s great before my son passed away I tricked him when I was making tacos he said mom nawl...

I can relate to your transition to plant based, Kim. Over 10 years ago, I just started to get turned off by meat and slowly went from pescatarian, vegetarian, and then in 2020 I’ve been happily plant based vegan for 2.5 years :) its a journey! thanks for making this video! 🌱💕
I'm literally making my shopping list for tomorrow for the week. I think i want to go pescatarian for now because i love salmon too much. But I feel like i can veganize my breakfast and lunch. I'm excited!!!!
Stumbled upon your channel, I’ve been feeling tired of meat lately and I love this video, so real and not just bombarded with info 👏🏾
you’re so helpful. i rarely can sit and watch someone just talk to a camera through the whole video. but you are so helpful and made such good videos 🥰
you always have the best transition videos. These're my go-to.
It's been so cool watching your videos and channel growth over the years! I've been here since the beginning and have learned so much from you along the way :)
This is so good and practical. I was looking for the “how” in this transitioning process. THANK YOU!
Love this. I'm just starting my plant-based journey now, at 56. I need to catch up on your other vids, they're so good and speak to me! New subscriber. Thanks so much!
I have been thinking about starting a plant base diet, your video was so relatable, and you covered everything. Thank you for this.
This video is long overdue lmao I went vegan and stopped so many times lmao
I did the same thing. I went pescatarian 2012, vegetarian 2015 , then vegan 2017;2018
I went a whole year being vegan and stopped. Now I’m getting back into it. I felt my best then.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sis, same!
True. Me too
First! I'm so glad i caught this before starting my school work.
I'm never dissappointed when it comes to watching your videos. Great information!
I do love your channel!! The step by step tutorials are amazing! Thanks for looking out for us! 🙏🏾💙✊🏾
Great video! I have tons of vegan recipes saved on Pinterest! I just have to make them! I have already eliminated dairy from my diet and have been making green smoothies. This has motivated to continue on my journey.
This is such awesome information! Thank you for the simplicity in the video. I'm a bit more confident to go forth now.
I’ve been doing meatless Mondays for years. I don’t eat red meat. Never ate pork. I’ve been trying out vegan foods and eating plant based foods and I am really really considering going vegan January 1, 2022 for health reasons. This video is a great help. Thank you 😊
Lots of great starter tips thank you !! I feel more confident again thank you ! Love how you just kept it moving with the information and not lagging quick to the point👌 🙂
Just found you on CZcams and I love your videos! I'm very close to coming off of a 10 day detox so I'm trying to get some ideas and ways to kick off a healthy more plant based lifestyle afterwards. This video is very informative and helpful, I took notes the entire time ❤
Thank you for this 😩 you make me feel so confident about trying to transition!!! Every concern and question was answered in this one video!! I’m ready!!
You gave such good advice for those of us just starting to transition. Thank you so much💚
I must say this is spot on as a recently transitioned vegetarian in a diverse household. Although I am not vegan but your videos still inspire me and help me develop new meals that fit my diet. Keep up the great content!
I needed this video omggg. I just started on my own journey for health reasons and I’ve been struggling to make up meals. Thank youuuuu
Kim it's such a blessing that your channel has grown so much! You are my first vegan inspiration xo
Thank you for this. I have been researching and trying to figure out recipes to transition into becoming a vegan. 😊 It is something I have been wanting to do for a while. It is also about becoming more healthier for wanting to change the way I eat and put into my body.
Thank you so much for this video!!! I've begun changing my diet slowly over the past year and I'm currently a pescatarian who is considering moving to a vegan diet. This video helped tremendously and I'm really grateful for all the tips.
This was an amazing video full of things I never thought of before and a nice start-guide! Thank you!
Thank you so much. I have started towards the plant-based lifestyle - still learning and gradually moving that way; right now I guess I call myself a flexitarian, mostly still including seafood...for now. I'm working on my prepping. Your videos have been so helpful and simple. Thank you. I have subscribed.
Love the video Kim!
I think I am ready for the transition. Its the mixed household issue that will be hard. Having to cook to appeal everyone's appetite already is hard as it is. Lol.
Glad I stopped by. I am taking my baby steps. Appreciate your tips they are very helpful.
This was right on time (three days in!) for me, so thorough, and so helpful! Thank you for this, Sis 😊.
Not gonna lie, it’s like I knew this (from years of research) but I really really needed to hear it all over again! Mainly because I’m ready to take this seriously now but seriously, thank you for this video. Love it 🥰
You're awesome girl, keep it up. Thank you for all your great ideas & insight. I've been vegan for over 3 years and I also feel & look much better now than I ever did back then.
This is such a great video for anyone who’s newly vegan or looking to become vegan but not too sure how to start! Eliminating slowly was a tactic that worked well for us ✨
This was the simplest way I have heard. Thank you!
Thank you for making this it’s SO helpful! Also you’re stunning!!!
I have literally been talking to my vegan friends about the transition. This was so helpful !!
Love this! Tofu scramble is my go to!
I'm happy that more and more people are becoming concious and start making right food choices! Thank you for the video!
The Myokos butter is the best vegan butter on the market and I am not vegan. Great tip regarding cutting out one meat at a time.
So glad I came across your channel. Just starting out with this. In between pescatarian-vegetarian-vegan. Slowly omitting dairy but can’t seem to fully commit to no eggs. Loving your content. Very helpful!
Such a great idea to do a vegan search of restaurants near you! Thank you so much. Your videos have certainly helped me out, as I’ve just started eaten a plant based diet.
A game changer for me as a vegan was learning to make bread without oil, sugar, or salt! Thanks sis for this content.
Thank you!! I can feel my gut getting healthier already💓💛
I’ve decided I’m going vegan when I come back from basic training and I can not stop watching your videos they are soo insightful
Loved this video Kim! Your tips have definitely helped me in my transition 💕 Thanks for all you do!
Thank you for this video! I'm type 2 diabetic with a need for change. I'm starting to look at meat on my plate as dead animals and after watching your video and reading a lot of the comments, that's a good time to start thinking about converting over to vegan. I'm getting ready to binge watch your videos sooooooo🤣...Thanks again! Blessings
Yesterday was my birthday. Couldn’t go anywhere so we had a bbq. I had all vegan food it was good.
This vid is so good. Very helpful, Kim!!!
❤ your Channel & Thanks so much for the Life Lessons you threw in there that was Brilliant 🙌
Keep up the Great Work 🙂👏👏👏
Vegan food tour is an excellent idea. Thank you so much. I have been enjoying your videos. Thank you!
*if I switch to vegan I DONT wanna see NO bumps on my face, period!* 💯
Boss Queen same girl I want to lose weight and get rid of my acne
Dairy causes acne and a million other problems
I'm vegan but unfortunately I still get acne. Other things could be causing it though like what I'm using on my face or other reasons. It isn't always your diet. But eating healthy & drinking a lot of water helps, as well as having a good skincare routine with products that suit your skin :)
I felt this!!! Amen amen
I have really bad eczema and I don't break out. I know I can't do to much of certain things, but I have gerd so I have to be careful.
Food looks delicious 😋 I have been Vegan/Raw for 15 years and feel soooo much better. I did a lot of research before I began this journey 🙌🏼🙌🏼
I had to play the video 2x I wasn't paying attention, your glow is captivating.☺
Thank you so much Cee Cee ❤️
I truly appreciate your videos!!
I never really comment on yt videos but I just had to let you know that this video is perfect!!! It hits every point that I try to make and follow when giving advice on going vegan and you were so very informative and helpful.
I remember when you were pescatarian
I can't believe I've been following for over 5 years wow.
Thnk u so much. The step by step on how to is wonderful. God Bless
Right on time starting today and have been doing tons of research
I just found your channel and I'm so glad I did! First of all, you have a beautiful smile and you're so beautiful inside and out. Thank you for sharing such GREAT tips with us on Utube. I am working on starting this new life style so your channel is going to be my favorite go to channel for sure. 😊
Thank you so much for making these videos Kim. You are so helpful & I love your recipes. I finally became vegan & going strong since a month now. I'm feeling a lot better physically & mentally. Definitely the best decision I made 💘
Very helpful and informative. Thank you Kim.
Such a QUALITY VIDEO! Keep going sis!
Great food tips. I try to eat a meatless meal at least once a day it really helps my digestive system. I'm edging more toward being a vegetarian just learning more and more about what foods work best for my body and lifestyle. Your food ideas have come in handy down through the years. 🙂
This is some GOOD AND HELPFUL info and guide. THANK YOU. It's so practical and easy. I am soo thankful!! :) THANK YOU!!!
I have been vegan/vegetarian for eight years, I love this! Thank you for sharing!!
The information you gave was so helpful and I like your practical approach!
The different options given for those who may not know what is avaliable for this type of lifestyle is great.
Please do a food substitute video, cause I can’t let go of my eggs and salmon 🥺
The brand just egg, tofu scramble or chickpea scramble
Then Don't :)
The tofu really helps for your egg substitute. She has a video for that. I have place it in a bowl with all my ingredients so the tofu can get all the flavors. Then cook it up. Its really good
@@Martina_E is there a video you would recommend for the chickpea scramble. That sound interesting. I have not heard of it
😂
Thankyou this really helped me I'm completely new to plant based diet. Learnt heaps from your video.
Thanks for sharing how you plan out your meals. That was very helpful. I often struggled with how many meals a week to plan. And it’s just myself lol
All good tips Kim! I have been naturally giving up certain meats, beef and pork particularly. Thank you!
This was great and just what I needed to transition, thank you!
Love your hair makeup and nails! Love your channel!
Thank you for your simple grace and tips . I can do this
These tips were very helpful! Thank you.
This was so helpful thank you!
