    Pros & Cons of a Vegan Diet for Weight Loss & Cycling Performance?

    Paleo diet is a fad, the article even stated he doesn't actually follow it properly. An athlete will perform poorly if they strictly follow the paleo diet. It's a good start in that it cuts processed fake food, but to low on carbs for my liking.

    Pros & Cons of a Vegan Diet for Weight Loss & Cycling Performance?

    Agree, I've never met anyone who got fat on carbs from fruit and veg or carbs from rice or pasta even. You have to try really really hard to eat too many calories when you're eating real food.

    So does that mean this vegan thing is a complete load of crap? Why is it that the people I know who eat mostly greasy food are all huge fat pigs?

Also, i'm not one to dispense advice to those who don't ask for it. But I can see you're in need and i'm going to do...

    Pros & Cons of a Vegan Diet for Weight Loss & Cycling Performance?

    I have a horse that needs a super high protein diet, so he gets fed a lot of meat. My other horse does better on carbs, so he gets hay and chaff. I also have a goat, dog and a sheep and they switch depending on the diet fad of the day. All three are doing a water fast currently, last week was a...
