Win a Free Vegetarian Weight-Loss Kit
Tired of the diet rollercoaster? Are you ready to stick with your weight-loss resolution this year? With all the different weight-loss "solutions" out there, it's difficult to know what will work and what's just hype. But the answer is actually simpler than you might think. Deborah Wilson, M.D., explains, "The only weight-loss diets that have succeeded in scientific studies beyond one year are vegetarian diets, and the best part about them is that they're not really 'diets' at all: Delicious vegan foods are naturally low in fat, so quantity and calorie restrictions are unnecessary."
Did You Know?
- Population studies have proved that meat-eaters have three times the obesity rate of vegetarians and nine times the obesity rate of vegans.
- Adult vegans are, on average, 10 to 20 pounds lighter than adult meat-eaters.
- Dr. Dean Ornish calls vegetarianism the "eat more, weigh less" diet. Although 97 percent of dieters gain all the weight back that they originally lost, people on Ornish's vegetarian diet consistently lose weight and keep it off.

On going vegetarian: "I did it for my own reason: because I don't want to eat animals. What ended up happening was that I got healthy, I lost a lot of weight, and my skin cleared up. And I never get sick."
Celeb Success Story: Ruben Studdard
