Hi Amber, I have been following you site for a while, and I really appreciate your approach. I haven’t read the article, I think I don’t need to, it will only create more negativity (from me reading people making personal comment on someone else, they don’t even know, because deep down inside they are unhappy with themselves) isn’t a little bit in the human nature (ugly nature) to criticize what we can’t have, reach or achieve, or understand I guess?
Anyway, I am glad you are who you are and decided to share all that you have learned on your own skin with the rest of the people that will appreciate it and possibly put it to good use.

Thank you.

I admire you for being such a strong-willed woman. Keep up the good work. Just follow what you believe is right.

First let me say it is nice to hear your voice and see your face when you are discussing a topic … a nice change of pace and allows me, as a reader, to know you a little better. I like that.

On the topic … as with any type of criticism … life is too short! You are so very super-helpful for those of us, namely me, who have tried to subsist on low calories for YEARS. This is the first time in my life I have actually ALLOWED myself to EAT. THANK YOU!

You know what you are doing/saying works and you are wanting to share it with others! I have had the same experience with curing my lifelong acne … I have wanted to share it with others I see suffering.

So .. thank you and keep up the good work. The nay-sayers be damned!

Hi! Love your site.
Hey, I have a question. I’m having a hard time trying to wrap my mind around getting 150 grams of protein on a mostly plant based diet. How heavily would one need to depend on the raw protein powder to reach that? I need about 2600 calories, btw.
If you can give an example of how you have eaten that much protein when you were eating mostly plants based, I would truly appreciate it!

Well said! You are beautiful. And personal attacks say more about the attacker than anyone else.

I have a pretty crazy schedule (I work two different jobs and am at 3-5 different job sites during any given week, plus have 2 kids with after school activities, yada yada…), so I fit my workouts in wherever I can. Sometimes I’ll even do a bodyweight circuit on the bleachers while my kids are at sports practice, because that may be the only down time I have that day. That’s why I love bodyweight stuff so much, you can do it anywhere!
