What commercial weight loss programs are vegan?
I lost 90 pounds on a “whole plant based diet” (healthy vegan), but want help in losing another 60 pounds. Are there any commercial weight loss programs that are “vegan” in nature?
Gina Kolata describes the abysmal record of the most popular programs including Weight Watchers, Atkins, and medically supervised calorie restricted diets. Her deep research indicated that the vast majority of people fail to maintain much weight loss over a period of a few years.
What commercial programs are available to vegans?
weight loss cardiff answers:
Commercial diet programs sometimes rely on pre-packaged foods. They are not commonly associated with whole foods or with plant-based foods.
Congratulations on your 90-pound weight loss! Most likely, you are now feeling much more energetic and exercising more each day. Since you have been so successful, and you have been eating plant-based whole foods, you must have been doing much of your own cooking.
I think you will like these websites to help you with webcasts, blogs, recipes, and nutritional information. Perhaps you have already seen them.

How come weight loss programs and dieting programs don’t work?
I’m currently doing an assignment for health class and the question is, well, the title of this question — “How come weight loss programs and dieting programs don’t work?” I mean things like Weight Watches, Jenney Craig, etc.
I’ve tried Google but nothing so far.
Thanks in advance!
Lol, Barbra, you helped a lot(: Thanks!

Ok now hear me out….i think the reason they dont wor is because…THEY DONT WANT PPL TO LOSE THE WEIGHT AND KEEP IT OFF!! Reason being is because then they wont be as sucessful at sellin thier product!they want people to be fat and they know if there is somthing out there that works there goes thier bisness..cause ppl would do it lose it and leave it at that ..it would be no more money for all this bs thsey come up with!i think they make stuff to help you loose a little weight but then u will gain it all back and come back to ther product!cause u will think “while on jenny craig diet i lost weight” and u will go purchase whatever again to see a lil results…am i making any sence??lol just my opinion!!

Does anyone know any good weight loss programs that are good for diabetics?
A friend of mine is interested in starting a weight–loss program, but is type 2 diabeties. She cannot handle any sugars whatsoever, and has to limit herself to VERY few carbs. With this being said, does any know, preferebly from experience, any good weightloss programs for diabetics? Something where the food can be ordered, such as NutriSystem, where you don’t have to go to the place to participate. Thanks in advanced~~! Links would be much appreciated,
weight loss cardiff answers:
The South Beach Diet is really good. Try to do this with her. It’s always nice to have somebody to diet with for support. You can also do Weight Watchers on the internet. Both are good.
