But of course it's possible. When you make drastic changes to your diet, your weight is bound to change. Just make sure it's HEALTHY weight and that your diet consists of plenty of fruit, veg, legumes etc and not just all mock meat.
Yes, of course it's possible. There are other factors to weight gain too of course, like, change in the amount of exercise you do. But like Carina said, just make sure you're getting your calories from healthy foods and not just potato chips and soft drinks and you should be good
Personally my weight didn't change at all when I became vegetarian and later vegan. I'm the same as I always was, though I generally suffer fewer colds now, which is a nice bonus
I have recently put on 4kgs and almost gone down a size. so everyone is telling me its muscle cos im still tiny... my best friends thinks i have really muscley arms for my size though. yay pole dancing!
I put weight when I went vegetarian purely because I knew nothing about nutrition and lived off pasta.
Me too... and my addiction to cheese!
I lost 8kgs when I became vegan only because I started eating healthy. It's easier to maintain my weight now, without even trying. And I haven't been sick once since becoming vegan 4 years ago!
When I first went vegan I thought it would be a really healthy change and help me lose weight, which is did but now that I've joined more communities and found out about all the vegan food there is on the market it really doesn't make a difference and I've still got to watch what i eat, god knows I've overindulged in soy ice cream after one too many bad breakups LOL
