I recently found my weight had gotten out of hand so I went to a good breakfast, dried fruit and nuts during the day and a light dinner...I've lost 45 pounds in 3.5 months. I feel fine, for those 2 meals I eat WHATEVER I want.
So you wanna be vegan...good luck, you might not be heading down as healthy a diet trail as you believe, but that's an individual choice.
Just the fact of losing weight for 3.5 months is not the only test of a healthy diet.
