From dead man to Ironman, nice work 🌱👊🏻
Plant based gains are awesome, but plant based losses are often even more amazing! What a story. Where are all the similar carnivore diet victories?
Amazing transformation! I was close to 500 pounds and miraculously I was guided to a Plant Based Whole Foods lifestyle that has saved my life!!! I no longer take blood pressure medication and I am healing, I still have weight to lose, so far over 160 pounds. THIS WORKS and you are I'm never deprived and have a deeper respect for all sentient beings.
BEAUTIFUL
Thank God for that! Keep up your great work
Wow congratulations! 💚🌱👌👍
They should do a video on you. I'd love to hear your story.
@@evouga13 Thank You! Once I accomplish my goal, I want to dedicated my life to helping others, there are so many mind blowing transformations on a plant based vegan lifestyle it's amazing!
It make me cry with happiness to see people like him.
I'm so glad there are genuine compassionate people around who encourage others. You guys are a breath of fresh air. 👍 You guys obviously realise that everyone is fighting some battle that isn't obvious to others.
@Leo why are you putting your cut-and-paste reply here. This is not the right thread.
Man I’m 38 307 pounds I’m being released from hospital as I write this. My bp was 205/1something I was dizzy and felt crazy. I’m laying here and I get this notification I’m gonna really change my life. I’m gong plant based for life I never felt like this the way I felt yesterday. Love y’all be healthy !!!!
You can do it! Please keep us posted on your progress. There are lots of videos on youtube if you need help or feel tempted!
If you haven't read lots about a whole food plamt based diet yet - there are great books that teach how it works and what it does for your health. I'd recommend educating yourself on it as much as possible, so that you really know what is good and why!
Focusing on weight loss:
How not to diet (Dr. Greger)
Eat to Live (Dr Fuhrman)
General health:
The China Study (Dr. Campbell)
Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease (Dr. Essylstyn)
How not to die (Dr. Greger)
Psychology of eating:
The pleasure trap (Dr. Lisle)
There are many more, eg from Dr. Bernard, Dr. Mcadougall etc, but the above I have read and can recommend.
Good documentaries and inspirational films on Netflix:
Forks over knives
What the health
The Game Changers
All the best to you - I wish you great success in your journey back to health!
Good luck, it's an amazing journey! There are some challenges but the rewards are real!
You need to check out NutritionFacts here on UA-cam. Dr. Greger is an amazing doctor with lots of research on the vegan plant based whole food lifestyle. Good luck on your journey!!
Bloxeh thank you I will definitely check out I’m leaving hospital now I cannot leave here without changing my life I think I’ll make a UA-cam channel
So inspirational! I wish my father was willing to make healthy changes in his life. He died at age 63, and was obese, and a type 2 diabetic ☹️
I'm sorry to hear that.
April B.
So sorry for your loss.
I had a wonderful friend who literally drank herself to death by kidney failure with Diet Pepsi. As I stood by her casket I made a silent promise to her to never drink another carbonated drink sort of feeling like I would do for her what she had been unable to do for herself. That was seven years ago and I have kept that promise to her.
Hopefully, in your father's honor and as a tribute to him you can live the lifestyle that he wasn't able to.💚
I'm sorry for you and your dad too, but as a doctor doing a TED talk said (I forget the dr's name), it's not too late for you.
"It didn't just save my life, it gave me a new one" Amen brother. You are an inspiration.
2019 has been a very successful and great year for veganism. Plant-based foods are in high demand and are being supplied by many companies. Just a fee years ago, so many plant based foods options were not around but today it is the opposite. I'm looking forward to 20 20. Animal agriculture will disappear in our lifetime. I just can't wait. Happy 2020 everyone🙌🏾😊
Amen!!
@@melon5806 more cancer, diabetes and strokes for you! Very exciting indeed!! 🤦♀️
@@Rojayzee Lmaoo exactly.
@@melon5806 Good luck, Genius!! =)
@@Rojayzee ditto-animal flesh and secretions= more cancer and heart disease
Wow... WOW... so inspiring... that last picture says it all!!
What a great motivational story and your wife could tell her own story too. You both look amazing!
Congratulations! You look amazing and I know you feel amazing! I have been vegan since January 7th 2019, currently went from a 2x to a L and shrinking daily! Isn’t life beautiful!
You must feel fabulous! And not afraid to eat! LOL I was 55 years vegan November 2019. I was somewhat forced to go to school in the medical industry. Though I do have a teaching degree. Everything I learned in science on my own should we have no enzymes and not a body for eating dead animals unless it seemed urgent which it is not in a normal society. And I don't expect to be stranded on an island anytime soon. We always get stranded on Islands or stuck in an airplane crash or something and people stories. As they try to bypass no pun intended there poor diet. When somebody like you comes along and proves it immediately well let's just say private thank you so much when on when was much better than working for the big pharmaceutical companies which is what being a doctor basically. You have a quota to pass out whatever drugs are being sold at that time. I am so proud of you for making that connection. And keeping it. As time goes on Things become ethical and you can't help but see everything for what it really is. While participating it's just something for people to argue about and deny because they would have to make life changes and most humans are pretty stubborn until they're looking at their own mortality and then summer still stubborn. You're definitely a great example of what this can do!👣🐾🥀🌱

Carolyn Brown thank you
Gomez Addams ah yes! And I am 55 and have the blood work now of a 22 yr old, I am also ALMOST off my thyroid medicine. I hike 5 miles every morning and longest has been 19 on the PCT which I plan on hiking innings entirety in 2021!
@@gomezaddams6470 55 years vegan!!!?? Whoa that is impressive... Well ahead ...
AWESOME! this brought a tear to my eye, I'm so happy for this guy!
You are awesome!!! Amazing story.... Love the pics of you running!
Wow let's spread the message!👏🏼🙌🏼🙏🏼💙 veganism isn't just a diet..it is an awakening!😌🙏🏼💙🙌🏼
JJP ! ! well yeah, veganism isn’t a diet it’s an ethical standpoint against exploiting or harming animals, Whole Foods Plant Based is a diet, just to clarify
@@garden.of.thistles you can eat healthy and stand up for the three things that are important. We different a whole food plantbased "diet" as another thing because a lot of us or all of us don't eat good, and diets and excercices are trending because of how we eat. Not saying that excercise and eating healthy isn't necessary but it's just trending because of how we live, so we call it "a diet" which is not, we should be smarter than that..
JJP ! ! I just know a lot of people that start to call themselves “vegan” because they started eating 90% vegetables and it’s a little frustrating. Veganism is a way of life, healthy diet or not, but a diet is just a general eating pattern. People heal because of whole plants, not because they stopped using animals. No hate, I just figured I’d clarify the definitions because most people assume Veganism IS just a diet, when really that distracts from the cause we’re fighting for (you also can’t just eat vegan cookies all day and expect to become a super human lol).
@@garden.of.thistles yeah I know, the real reason is for the animals while it benefits the planet and us to (if we eat healthy), when I mean "if we eat healthy", that's whenever people separate from the real meaning of veganism and just takes it as a "diet" just because of weight loss, health benefits, etc which are good but the three of the the meanings are the real thing that we should incorporate, put our minds into. It's better for everyone.🙂
He's not a vegan he's an animal killer. Let's get that straight.
Is this the same guy who spoke at Durham Veg Fest a few months ago? So inspiring!
So Proud of you dude. It's more than that for you, and it's not about having people pat you on the back, but please know that you sharing your story is going to be that one success story that will change someone else from a downward spiral. Thank you for being an example of transformation, showing us that it is possible to heal ourselves... body mind and soul. God Bless you man.
Missy Moonwillow you are so right
Every doctor on the plant needs to see this
“My finish line sat about 20 ft the other side of the line and it was Heather” Awwwww 😍

What a beautiful story! Sends chills down my spine. Everyone should hear this transformation story.
That’s just amazing, so happy for him and his family! But even happier for the beautiful animals being saved by their new lifestyle ❤️❤️❤️
nyxs60 💚
I am SO happy for you , who could possibly argue with that !!! I love stories like this !
Good video, need more like it, vegan for a couple months, I sleep great too! Finally....
Congrats Rocky. I've been plant-based and vegan for 10 years.
Rocky 💚😘💚
Beautiful story! Happy you loved yourself enough to save yourself!
So inspirational. Thanks for sharing this great story of success.
I’m so cheering & rooting for you. Lots of loves to both of you and blessings. I’m sure your wife had difficulties to see you suffering along the way BUT... waking up on the other side. That’s the magic of plant best diet and willpower taking responsibility over your life & your surroundings. 🙏🏻⭐️
JUST TOTALLY AWESOME! Plants are our Medicine!👏👏👏👏👏
Happy tears... Congrats to this man and his family! ❤
"Switch from sympathy in my wife's eye to pride".
I'm not crying... You're crying
Looks like Heather made some positive changes as well. Way to go both of you.
Love this, such an inspiring story.
I love the ending. I saw my finish line on the other side. That was Heather. Wow!
VEGAN MOTIVATION: Went vegan at 13, not rich, non vegan family, and still vegan 4 years later. If I can do it, so can you!
Vegan UA-camr btw
@@melon5806 And look at me...
I'm also proud of you for having intelligence at such an early age! I had my 55 years vegan and November of 2019! I've been rich I've been poor during this time. I didn't change my diet too much. I'm happy for you and I know that you will live a much more comfortable life and more than likely passed peacefully in your sleep rather than being hooked to machines fat unhealthy and in pain. Congratulations on your 4 years at such a young age. No Doubt a great example to your friends!🖤👣🐾🌱
@@melon5806 Because thats the right fuel for their body but putting diesel fuel into a gasoline engine wont work very good.
I just subbed 👍

Wow, incredible journey of transformation. I am proud of you for taking the time to tell your story. Continued success.
This is bringing tears to my eyes! Good for him! 🌱💚👌👍
Inspirational story of transformation about the power of plants & human will. This man is helping himself, his family & the environment - INSPIRING
Bless their hearts! 💗💗💗💗
Congratulations I hope you will continue this for the rest of your life
Another beautiful story. Teared-up. So happy for hi and his family
Awa I feel ur pain buddy that's why I switched to plant based
@@melon5806 why are u here?
@@melon5806 so... just because we do something for years that makes it right?
@@melon5806 actually. If you look back they were pretty plant based too. They didn't eat meat everyday since it didn't make sense to spend all day waiting for an animal to come along and kill. So their diet consisted of primarily vegetables, berries and even roots from plants in the winter. Also, that argument is very outdated. In the 21st century we do not "hunt" as our main source of meat. We go to the local grocery store's meat section, where it is conveniently placed in plastic with a price tag. If you are the kind of person that hunts for every ounce of meat that you eat lemme tell you right now how unnecessary that is. We have all the resources to go vegan and it is soooo easy! We are very blessed. I've never heard anyone who has gone on a whole food vegan diet (aka the right way to vegan) and regret it! You are also saving the planet and yourself! With no need to kill animals! It's truly amazing. I know our society forces us to think the way you are thinking right now. It's okay every pre-vegan said the same thing. But we need to do our own research and find the truth. If you have any questions I will try my best to answer or direct you somewhere that can. Have a lovely day.
Inspirational just inspirational 👏 👏 👏 with respect to his wife your husband is fit AF!
YOU MADE ME CRY.. WITH JOY!!
You've got a beautiful story there, specially that last sentence there. Thanks for sharing!
What a transformation. Brilliant stuff

Yes Robert, I shouldn't have too!
What a beautiful story! Thank you so much for sharing! Best wishes to you, your wife, & family!
Yes, do it for your wife, your husband, the people that love you, and the people that you love. Do it for the animals that are helplessly waiting for us to be compassionate.
That is awesome.
Very impressive!
Congrats!
Totally inspirational !
The body is an amazing machine, and can heal all by its self given the chance and the right fuel !
This mans story touches us all at what is possible when faced with leaving this planet, and of coarse his beautiful family.
Just inspired me to do a 70.2 before I am 60 !
Anything is possible going by this mans turn around in health and achievements.
Great positive story or what plant based eating can do for your health.
watching stories like this from PBN make me think of that line from Jerry Maguire: You Had me at Hello.
