there is such thing as vegan BBQ!

No, there's not. BBQ is, in it's simplest form, meat cooked slowly on a metal frame in a container filled with smoke. If the protein being cooked is not meat, then it's not BBQ in a true sense. My 2c.

Debatable. BBQ by definition is the cooking Method which is low and slow as well as the distinct tastes. Over the years BBQ has been linked to meat but is not exclusive to what you are cooking.

Here's one thing I made yesterday that is vegetarian and could be made vegan - glazed carrots!

carrots.jpg.e33c284f23b3747c5ceab63baac0aa1c.jpg

These were carrots from my garden this year. Sous vide 2.5 hours at 185 degrees with 1/2 tsp salt, 1 Tbsp sugar (or sugar substitute for those of us who are low carb), 2 Tbsp butter (sub oil for vegan). 

I sous-vide'ed on Wednesday and then put them in the fridge overnight. To finish, dump the contents of the bag in to a skillet and saute until all of the liquid evaporates and the carrots began to brown. I add thyme and a little black pepper. Shortly before serving toss with a bit of lemon juice.

Just caught up my google sheet if anyone is interested. Was logging daily but past 5 days to be expected were pretty busy.

Week 2 recap is in there but overal I feel great and am definitely “groggy” when I am not eating a food meal. The past few days prior and after thanksgiving we had done quick meals and and ate out after Friday’s round. I can feel the difference even within a few hours. 
I am somewhat tired but I don’t think it’s the diet change it’s work is pretty busy and the holiday season sucks it out of me (get all our stuff done early so we aren’t rushing around later)

Also had my first round and my first time swinging since starting this. Speed is still there and walking the course (fairly hilly) and didn’t break stride, felt good the whole day. Also built a frame for a swing yesterday with my dad and brother, no strength lost whatsoever. I think I would have been a little more sore as well after yesterday, could be nothing but could be something not sure.

I'd be very interested in how that info trends as you continue down this road.

Forgive me if I'm asking something you've already addressed, but are you adding workouts as a part of this?  I'm just wondering how much you'll be able to attribute to this dietary change if you're also adding some aerobic work, etc.

So at this point in time with work I do not have much time for workouts and the gym at work is closed (will most likely be the last thing to reopen once folks are back) so all I am doing is daily stretching and whatever workout I get from stuff around the house and kids. Anything that changes at this point can be directly attributed to the diet change.

Eventually the workout will be back in the routine but hopefully will see some good results before that point.

Today was my first day of back to back days under 200 and stayed pretty much at the same weight which is pretty reassuring to me.

testing a new minestrone recipe tonight. Minestrone is one of my favorite soups so I hope it’s good

Found this article interesting and cites research. Overall reduction in blood pressure/heart attack/etc etc.

https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2020/07/200724191441.htm

Initial take on blood pressure is both systolic and diastolic have lowered. I took my BP at the same time I would at my annual doctors visit and after my normal breakfast like I would going to the doctor.

I by no means like I have said before have an issue with my blood pressure and is very normal for my age but wouldn't mind lowering. I am "concerned" slightly about my LDL and cholesterol, not sure of any other way to take that other than my bloodwork on my physical so that will have to wait until next year.

So today I saw another good size drop in weight. I dropped 2 lbs and am at 197 today. I am definitely eating less (still a lot because I love to eat) but again I am feeling fuller with better food. 

Been a wild week so we actually had Daiya Pizza last night and it was amazing. I was full after a half a pizza (not sure the diameter of these but its fairly small like any other oven pizza). I previously could easily eat a whole pizza myself put it that way.

If you have not tried these pizzas highly recommend.

I recommend you try the Amy's Supreme. So much better!! Greatr job on the weight loss. Couple that with exercise and you'll be at 180 or so. I am around 190 now but don't workout near as much due to COVID and a toddler.

I have been pretty good about sticking to the plan overall. Have had a few days where the wife and I have ordered out or the kids wanted something and we just were not in the zone to cook. Had Chinese last night but stuck to non meat stuff. 
did not see a big jump in weight this morning and feel good.

long story short I think sticking to this vegan meal plan and still slipping occasionally works and I am seeing some really good results. For anyone looking into this and doesn’t think they can do it, you can even if it’s not 100% of the time it’s beneficial even if only for weight loss

So thanksgiving my son still had turkey but we did different veggies. Stuffing was still vegan. Mashed potatoes was plant based butter and oat milk. I prefer the oat milk and plant butters over the former. We actually had everything we would normally have besides French stuffing and turkey just prepared differently.

BP has dropped and have only taken it once. I will take it again this Wednesday (trying to take it middle of the week, Monday and Friday’s are usually hectic so trying to get the even keel days) I would like to try to get my diastolic below 70.

on the first post On this thread I have a link “follow progress here” At the top and it has a spreadsheet link for my day to day weight, weekly thoughts and weekly BP

I have never had a gluten free store bought pizza crust that didn't taste like cardboard or limp mush. We make our own from Bob's Red Mill Pizza mix. It's easy!

Not all “vegan” pizzas are necessarily gluten free though this and daiya are. They are actually fantastic. Crust isn’t too bad but the cheese is honestly better lol

So legit question is yeast allowed in vegan food??? I mean they are living things that create CO2

hardcore vegans will avoid yeast since its living, but since it doesn’t have a nervous system and can’t feel any pain...most people allow it in their diet. 

yeasts are considered a fungus, not an animal.
