    I think it varies from person to person. I ate this way for awhile (with occasional fish) but did not start to lose weight until I lowered my carb intake no matter how few calories I consumed. I've had PCOS issues (I've never had a regular period) and that is basically code for pre-diabetes. As long as I do low GI, it works great for me. I still consume occasional fish/seafood though.

    I'm trying to lower my body fat %. I'm also a competitive extreme endurance athlete so I still need to maintain a high carb diet.

    That is interesting (about pre-diabetes.)

    I could never do vegan but I think a lot of nuts & legumes are good for the staples of this diet.

    That is my #1 protein source. It's good. You just have to watch out with calories from fat. I feel healthier than ever. I used to not like beans and now I love them. I have almonds or walnuts most days, and also peanut butter in moderation. I swear they are a good substitute when you're craving sugar, I don't know what it is. I don't even crave sugar anymore now.

    Yeah cutting sugar down (for me) has resulted in me feeling much much better.

    I'd say to OP, just avoid crap carbs, like refined anything & non-squeezed fruit juice? Tea is also a big part of my day.

    Same. I ate generally healthy for so long but always kept sugar thinking why not? No. That was probably the largest irritant in my body, even before dairy and gluten/non-organic wheat. I said bye bye to the three of them and now my health feels amazing.

    This channel might be useful to you - she popped up today in my youtube feed - a couple of those shakes look really good and are high protein and vegan.

    Look up Marzia Prince. She's a vegan fitness model. She has a Jessica Rabbit body too.
