What are some of the changes you’ve noticed physically and mentally since becoming vegan? -Jennifer in Charlotte Q2 - 3:20 I have been combining my Intermittent Fasting with the vegan lifestyle for about a month now, and I am starting to get stuck in a recipe rut. What are some of your favorite meals? -Alexus in NY Q3 - 8:29 One of my FAVORITE things about eating Vegan is the money I am saving at the grocery store! I am still cheap when it comes to organic produce. Does organic make a big difference, and should I spend the extra money? -Crista in VB Q4 - 9:50 I am sure you get this question all the time, but I grew up learning that I need meat for protein. Where do you get your protein? -Ashley in Springfield Q5 - 10:36 I am always curious to ask people that I meet, what caused you to become vegan? -Eric in PA Q6 - 11:23 I have done a lot of reading about eating Vegan online, and it seems like the health benefits are huge! The one thing I am worried about is that it seems like the diet involves a lot of carbs and carbs are the one thing that make me blow up! Have you noticed a change in your weight since becoming vegan? -Katherine in NC Q7 - 14:58 I am single, and very social. I don’t like to stay home. I am worried that eating Vegan would affect my social life. Where are your favorite places to go out to eat? -Carrie in Virginia Beach Q8 - 17:29 I am always looking for new things to try and add to my cart- I have been eating mostly Vegan for 3 mos and have done tons of Pinterest research looking for new things to make! What are the Top 10 Staples on your grocery list, and what is your favorite place to shop? Do you have any favorite products? -Jess in Tampa Q9 - 19:01 I am convinced that Vegan is the way to go! I have been eating vegan for several months and feel so good. It is getting exhausting to cook separate meals for my family though. Is it safe for my kids to eat vegan? And do you have any advice for getting my husband on board? -Sarah in Roxboro Q10 - 21:15 I have switched my diet over to 95% Vegan! I am so proud of myself and feel soooo good. I am considering my cosmetics and body products now. Do you use Vegan products, and if so, what do you recommend? Have you noticed a difference? -Rose in Norfolk --------------------------------------- To learn more about the principles of intermittent fasting, purchase Chantel's book, Waist Away: The Chantel Ray Way NOW by visiting http://amzn.to/2CVmTgs YouTube Channel Link: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCteFjiVaY6n0SOAixcyZbWA Like us on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/TheChantelRayWay Things we love: https://chantelrayway.com/things-i-love-2/ Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/TheChantelRayWay
