About 4 years ago, on a bet, I went Vegan for 90 days and ended up doing it for about 9 months. I ate whenever I wanted, as much as I wanted and lost weight, felt great and had tons of energy.

I took a multivitamin and got my protein from nuts and soy products like soy milk. The first few weeks are very difficult because your body is adjusting. I was tired and hungry and annoyed by it all. After that I got in to a groove and started feeling really good.

I ended up stopping it for two reasons: I missed meat and dairy. Sometimes you just want a pizza or a burger. The second reason is that it is a pain in the ass. There are very few things that are quick and easy to make and there is almost nowhere you can go out to dinner and order anything but a salad. It just got to be annoying after a while.
