Fat Vegan Help Desk - The Smart...

Ivy Artemis

Deep down I feel I was born to be vegan. As a child around 8 years old, I remember asking my mom, why we were eating an animal's liver. I felt pity and compassion for animals being used as food. I remember questioning why I had to eat meat all the time but I knew nothing of vegetarianism or veganism. When the knowledge of veganism came to me, it resonated with me on every level of my being. I felt like I was waking up to a reality that made perfect sense yet learning something I felt that I innately have always known to be right for me. I lost 100 pounds after becoming vegan. I lost weight slowly over time. I gradually ate less and learned to maintain my weight. I was a fat vegan long enough to know how hard it is to get to the next level and reach my goal weight. I understand how it feels to be fat while being a devout vegan, even on a strict whole foods diet but being trapped in the addiction of overeating and binging. 
Fat Vegan Help Desk is here to help you reach your desired weight. 
Fat Vegan Help Desk is the smart vegan guide. Stay motivated. Change your mind-set. Reach and maintain your desired weight. The final chapter is a hypnotic meditation to help you defeat overeating. Narrated by the Author. Written and Narrated by the Author,
