How Do Vegans Gain Weight
[mage lang="en|el|ja|en" source="flickr"]how do vegans gain weight[/mage]
i’m vegan, but i seem to be gaining weight–help! (seeking the advice of skinny vegans, and others)?
i’m naturally a small person, so this comes as a surprise to me. i’ve been vegan for a while now, and somehow i seem to be gaining weight, not losing it! what have i been doing wrong? i am healthy, always eat well, try to get enough protein and such, and i work out regularly–how can i stop this?
Since you’re working out, the “weight” may be muscle (or water), not fat. Have your doctor do a body fat analysis and let her interpret the results.
If you’re gaining muscle, you’re healthy. If you’re gaining water, check your sodium intake.
If you do happen to have more fat than desirable, the only thing that can put it there is: too many calories. Even if you eat high protein, if you eat too much, your body will store it as fat. Analyze how many calories you’re taking in (there are calculators for this) and reduce it 10% or as necessary.
Make sure to get all the nutrients your body needs. You may need a supplement to accomplish this.
