After watching the excellent documentary "Eating You Alive", I have mostly switched to a whole-food plant-based diet and feel fantastic, although I do eat the occasional pair of eggs. The big difficulty with the diet is avoiding all the refined oils that permeate our packaged food culture. Luckily, my wife is a professional cook and still cooks at home.
That said, this document already has some of my favs and has added a ton of new ideas. This crazy diet is really difficult just from a "finding foods I can actually eat" sense. As such, I have lost a few pounds but one thing I notice for sure is that my skin is in much better shape now. The beautiful thing about the diet is that I find that my body can handle cheat foods much better and I feel happy to get back on the diet right after.
Of all the things I miss, I miss cheese the most, but coffee with oat milk is just fine. Ultimately, I think the beauty of this diet is that I am forced to eat things like beans, tubers, tofu and whole grains for lack of anything else to eat. And I'm usually so dang hungry that I love them, thanks to my wife's efforts.
Oh, and the diet is actually much less expensive, especially when you buy dry beans.
