- In just six months, Mikey's life underwent a breathtaking transformation. From a meat-eating individual who "would rather be dead than fat," he embarked on a journey that defied all odds. Despite years of struggling with restrictive diets, fat loss pills, and binge eating, Mikey discovered the Vegan Superhero Academy. Through unwavering commitment, he embraced a fully vegan lifestyle, took control of his health, and lost a staggering 74 pounds. Along this path, he found a supportive community that believed in him, boosting his self-confidence and helping him cultivate self-love. Mikey's incredible story showcases the power of change, resilience, and the transformative impact of finding one's tribe.

Mikey! Mikey! Mikey! It was a pleasure meeting Mikey at the Vegan Superhero Academy Retreat last year! It was so cool to hear his name being chanted by his team when he was the final person standing in dodgeball. Going from being chosen last over the years to to being the last man standing in a team sporting event is an epic transformation that we watched unfold before our eyes. Congratulations, Mikey! Keep on going! Looking forward to seeing you again soon. You rock!
Mikey! Mikey! Mikey! 👏👏
Robert, you are my Vegan idol, and you have no idea what it means to have your continued, and valuable support. You were such a pleasure during the retreat, and have continued to inspire me long after! Thank you for watching, you have inspired so much of this journey, and more ... to the "long game"!
WOW! What an inspirational story! It took great courage for Mikey to be vulnerable enough to share what so many people feel! Amazing job!💪
We couldn't agree more - it takes so much courage to face yourself and know that you need to change, and to take these big steps towards that change. On top of that, sharing your story to help others. Mikey is amazing 💚
Jason, thank you so much for watching. This story was very personal, and hard for me, but I know and hope, that it will inspire, and empower, so many people in their own journeys.
Mikey, your story is so beautiful. Thank you for sharing your journey. You are strong. You are healthy. You are happy. You are an inspiration for all of us ❣
We are so grateful for Mikey! 💚
Coach Daphne, thank you so much for your continued support! You are a true Vegan Angel, and I am so looking forward to seeing you again at this years retreat!

Thank you for your kind words, Phil 😊❤
Phil, I am finally able to know what it means to stand tall and proud! Thank you so much for watching.
Words cannot describe how proud I am of you Mikey. You are the epitome of a Vegan Superhero. Lova ya man 💚
Mikey is absolutely incredible 💚
Anders man, From first meeting you at the retreat, I use to think man, "if I can ever get as fit as that guy" .... and here I am today, in full belief that I CAN get there .... all because of YOU, and this amazing program! Thank you for inspiring soooo many Vegan Superhero, and allow me to show the world, that I am good enough!
Yo I’ve got the chills like no other! That was an incredible video. Mikey you are one badass dude. I’m so incredibly proud of what you have done. No one should ever have to feel or be in a place like that and I’m really glad you found The VSA. Congrats on your success and good luck to the future !
Thank you, Connor. Mikey is really incredible, and we know that he's the one that put in all the hard work to change! 💪
Connor man, I feel ya on the Chills, and I am so thank to you for watching this! Ive never in my life thought that I could ever be a badass, and it means so much to know that I am able to use my journey to inspire others.
Dude you’re freaking badass and you’re only in the beginning. You have so much more to conquer and so much more inspiration to give ! I would be honored to meet you in the future! I hope to join the VSA at some point !
Congrats Mikey! Your hard work and dedication with a coach by your side has truly placed you on the path of transformation!
Yes! Coach Andrew is a rockstar! Thanks, David 😊🙏
David, you have been there from Day 1, when I first met you at the retreat, to our silly gym photos! You have rooted me on every step of the way, and given me the confidence, and faith to keep believing in myself! Thank you for your continued support.
@@FlabuousVegan Yes, from Day 1, what a privilege to see you through this entire transformation!
You've made the right choice. Thank you for sharing your inspirational story. God bless you 🌺 salutes from Egypt 🇪🇬☘️
Thanks, Shireen! 🙏 Veganism is the future ❤🐮🐷🐔🌱🌎
@@TheVeganGym I started it to heal my acne few years ago. It worked like a charm, now, like most of others, advocate for it for the other benefits. Here in Egypt it's so hard to influence because people are stuck to traditional dishes and the religious aspect of Adha feast (an annual sacrifice/slaughter 3 days in row). But I succeeded to convince few including my dad. I'm also shifting my career to fitness and nutrition and my peers at the gym are really amazed of my fast recovery/building vegan muscle as a lifter. It's not only the future, it's our genetic predisposition and the far evolutionary past that we ignored because of the lack of resources during hunter gatherer times. Thank you guys for the good work you do in this world as this takes us gradually to a higher collective consciousness as humans. ☘️🌎🙏🏻🇪🇬
@@shireenseif5644 Good job Shireen!
Thank you so much for taking the time to watch my story, all the way from Egypt! Your support means the world to me!
Amazing transformation! Glad Mikey told his story!

You have ALWAYS been enough!
Congratulations on your transformation so far!
May you continue to find healing in your body, mind and spirit on this journey with the Vegan Gym!
You've got it in you! 🔥
I can proclaim that Whole Food Plant Based Eating (aka only eating nourishing foods that "love" me back) has transformed MY life - in body, mind, spirit and purpose!
May it continue to work the same magic in you!
Plant(ing) Strong! 🌿
Best of luck with your own journey, Corina! 💪🌱

Yes, WFPB eating has had a powerful impact on my health, it also opened the door to a new, more active lifestyle.
Just hoping to inspire others now to change their health outcomes as well! Feeling so empowered!
Best wishes to you, always!
Thank you for sharing! You look great and happy. I’ve been vegan for about 2.5-ish years and I feel like I’m 19 again at 44. I totally get the yo-yo dieting comment! The biggest I’ve been as a 5’4” woman was 181. We’ve got this!

You've got this, Suzy! 💪 And you ROCK, Mikey!! 💚💚💚

@@TheVeganGym your Site is Awesome and of course You are Awesome and Amazing 🤩
Amazing story! Waw a lot of your past experiences are very similar to mine right now! Im 294 pounds 6ft1. The difference is i actually became this obese while i was a vegan. Eating carls jr beyond burgers after my shifts as a nurse has not been helping me at all. I havent reached 300lbs yet but i do not ever want to reach there! Ive been contemplating joining the vegan superhero academy for a while now... I think its about time...
It can be challenging working around a busy nursing schedule, but we are here for you! I'm just going to leave this here... 😉 www.vegansuperheroacademy.com/learn-more
I'm happy for Mikey, I'm glad he turned his life around with VSA
Mikey is truly incredible! 🌱
Thank you so much for watching, and your support!
I’m 272 and Ive tried every fad diet and fasting but it wasn’t comfortable but when I started going vegetarian I loved the way it makes me feel especially my morning poops, it comes off like butter rather than pushing boulders leaving streams of blood.
Hello Mikey's I was four XXXX and I could not stand any one taking a picture of me. when I seen my Doctor for a cold I got weighed and the Doctor told me that I was 300 pounds when I got home I talked to me wife and told her as of today fast food stops for me. I lost 125 pounds and I told my wife that I was going vegan to be Healthy and she told me ok but do not push it ok me i am trying to get her to change I love eating this way. congratulation to you my friend.
This is an amazing story!! Thank you so much for changing your life for the better. I am so happy that you're doing better now. Please take a look at our meal prep videos for some awesome recipes! 😃💚
Wow great job on your journey! And what an awesome organization..i love learning there are like minded people out there..very inspiring.
