Lunch can be an afterthought for most of us, especially working from home. We lose track of time and before you know it, it's dinner time! But I think that has a lot to do with the fact that we just don't always know what to make that can be light enough, to not spoil our dinner

Can you lose weight eating vegan?

There's a lot of misinformation out there regarding if being vegan helps you lose weight. The answer is... it depends! Being vegan doesn't necessarily mean automatically eating healthy, there are still tons of vegan junk foods that most everyone eats daily. Most chips/crisps are vegan and still not great for you. It's really all about portion size.
