5 years on vegan keto, and this is the result 

Not thinking about food is the greatest freedom ever.

Listening to your soothing voice is like a therapy for anxiety.

I've been through the same with my body all my life....cravings, stuffing myself, overexercising to make up, just so unhealthy. Now, in midlife, I've finally got balance. It's come from only eating whole foods, which I prepare at home every day. I finally feel fully nourished. 🙂

Despite not being vegan I absolutely think that your mental approach to keto/low carb is the BEST on the internet anywhere. Every time you talk about food freedom I just want to clap 👏

Keto helped me escape the duality of full and hungry also and experience…inner peace in this aspect of my life and others

I tried to be high carb vegan for decades. I was always hungry and never achieved a level of satiety (fullness). After I tried vegan keto and am never hungry all the time. What is significant about this is that with vegan keto, you are not grazing, binging or mindlessly eating all the time.

".... its about being free from the mental and physical struggles that we have with food that takes us away from of our true goals in life..."

So thankful I found you again. I tried doing keto, helped my anxiety but I hated eating animals to do it. I tried a whole foods plant based diet and with my carb addiction I would go out of control. Then i saw your video in my feed and was like duh, best of both worlds, thank you 💚. I will be binging on your content.

As a Type 2 diabetic I was given Dr Neal Barnard's book on reversing diabetes. It turned me vegan but didn't really help my blood sugars. I realised, after a year or so that I was eating way too many carbs (pulses/pasta/sweet potatoes/bread). Then I found you, Heavenly Fan! and my bloods have gone back to normal, I've never felt better but I also eat delicious food and actually don't feel restricted. Thank you :)

This is SO helpful. I'd been Vegan Keto for years with the same results but recently fell off. Now not only have I gained significant weight but I'm back to the constant cravings, overeating large amounts even of salads and still wanting more. I'm waking up hungry, going to bed hungry and I feel like I've lost the peace and control as well as joy and freedom I once experienced. I'm trying to get back on track but it feels SO much harder now. ☹

I’m not Keto, but I am vegan. I’ve tried several of your recipes, and enjoyed them, except for the bagels which disintegrated in the pot. I totally relate to what you’re saying about either feeling full (and guilty that I’ve overeaten) or feeling like I need to eat. Thank God for temperance and self control.

Thank you so much for your honesty and vulnerability. Your story is so inspiring! I was keto for 3 years before my wedding, and low carb/“Atkins” for years before that. In the year+ since the wedding I’ve struggled to find inspiration to feel better and look after myself. I miss how I feel when I’m on keto. Your video has inspired me to focus my attention back on my relationship with food. Thank you 🙏🏻

Great video Fan. I started doing keto and intermittent fasting about 2 years ago. I was very strict when I first started because I wanted to get results as fast as possible to keep me motivated. After reaching my goal and losing fifty pounds in six months I decided that it would be fine to eat whatever I want from time to time. I’m happy to say that this less restrictive approach is still working well for me and I’ve kept the weight off.

You are such a plant-based pioneer!!

Thank you for sharing this. I have been living with disordered eating for most of my life. Keto has been incredibly helpful to me. I learned so much about my body and my food needs. I love your recipes. They help me with some of my cravings and are absolutely delish! And your voice and demeanor are so soothing!

I had wandered back to carbs a few months ago...gluten free, but still carbs, and as usual, I ended up with uncontrollable cravings. I'm now back on keto - and it didn't take long for my brain and stomach to feel at peace. It's nice to be reminded that I'm made different from other people, and so what...I'm not the only one, and if this is all I have, I lucked out. Thank you for these wonderful and inspiring videos. They really help.

So good to listen to your story!! Intuitively eating is so so important.. with lots of love and kindness!! Thank you for all that you do!! Your struggle, my struggle.. learning and being in touch with our bodies!! 💙🌻🙏

I cannot believe this video because it is sooooo dead on correct. This is EXACTLY how I feel and EXACTLY what I have experienced with my low carb way of life. This is the first time I have heard ANYONE explain this process so perfectly. So logical and so helpful!! I hope that this message gets to many people because it contains such great advice and such an amazing life experience.Thank you so much for this important message. I just subbed and am a bit upset that I didn't find you sooner !🤨Thank goodness for Highfalutin Low Carb, he sent me here. And he was right, you do have a beautiful voice! But I am here now and I can't wait to binge watch your videos. Once again, Thank you and Thank you !!

I have been on Clean/Healthy Keto for over 4 years. It has been absolutely amazing. I am healthier than I have ever been and I will never go back to a sugar based diet. I've recently been feeling like I want to reduce , or eliminate, animal products from my diet. You have inspired me to do at least 1 year of Vegan Keto. If it works for me I will stay on it for 4 years to compare it to my Clean Keto data. Also, you're channel is so genuine and honest. Thank you for doing this. I just sent this video to my daughter. 🤞🏽💜🙏🏽

I'm not vegetarian, vegan in any form, but I've found this video excellent in helping me to understand why my body constantly wanted me to eat, especially chocolate and sweet things. Thank you for this, and your recipes!

Can’t Thank you are enough for all of your help! I dropped my A1C to 5.5 from 6.1 thanks to you! You’re amazing 🤩

I live in France and vegan keto for about 10 years. A recent trip back to my home town in the UK made me feel very sad. I love my birthplace and the people. What can we do about the obesity in the UK? Everyone complains about waiting lists to see a general practitioner on local television. It’s a huge subject of discussion and yet diet seems to be the last thing people talk about. Take care .

Greetings Heavenly Fan. You are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!! I LOVE ALL of yours recipes. I have learnt so much about myself through you, your recipes and all your (insights) knowledge. Keep bringing more healthy Keto foods to the whole world. And, by the way...your voice is so soothing, as well as your beautiful spirit and personality. Giving much thanks for you and your many delicious food 🥰

Isn’t it interesting how you experience “hunger” when you’re eating truly low-carb?! I honestly didn’t verbalize it this way- you have found the words for it. It’s this exact phenomenon that might be the motivating factor that causes people to become experimental cooks! I’ve seen this happen to people who’ve never done more than microwave frozen food, but on low carb, begin cooking complete meals and desserts.

I am at the 3 month stage on Keto and have lost lots of weight and have also been amazed by that feeling that my body is in balance and don’t need to eat for lengthy periods. I also follow your approach of not doing precise portion measurements and tend to eat when my body tells me to, on average 1 or 2 meals per day. So everything you have said in this video rings true to me. You have a wonderful way of explaining things and teaching great recipes. It makes me feel calm, happy and stress free. Thank you so much.

Blue zones eat about 85% calories from carbs. Got to have my beans and bake my own bread (freeze bread makes resitance starch 35% less glycemic index). As long as you are not insulin resistant you can eat like people did in the 60's. I'm 150 lbs, vegan, high starch eater and can't imagine what keto-vegan would be like.

your story is so wonderful to listen to - thank you for sharing these deep, lovely insights. i love the idea of forming that relationship with your body and creating the least resistance. this is probably the most loving/gentle advice I've ever heard towards diet change. thank you!!💜

I was hearing myself though not my voice. I so agree with you, you don't feel hungry anymore. Low Carb, is not a diet, it is, eating with empathy, things that are good for the body. I have to say, thank you, for giving simple yet delicious recipes.

OMG, I’m so thankful I found your channel. I’m new to IF and Vegan and have been struggling so much with food choices!!!! I’m so happy I found you, thank you for your video’s!!

Thanks for sharing. Glad you´re back.

I was on a vegan diet for 15 years and I had so many health issues that doctors told me that I should start eating animal products. I made my own research and I discovered the keto diet, and this nutritious way of eating helped me with a lot of my problems. I do now more of a low carb, for me is not strict at all and this make me feel so good that I don't want to go back to pasta, rice and potatoes. I don't eat a vegan keto diet, but after 15 years on a vegan diet I understand and respect that choice

And, thank you so much for this video - and all your others that I have watched. Somehow, I haven’t heard from you for a while - and I am subscribed, I think. Thank you - and good health and strength and happiness to all! We are all so lucky- we have choices!!! And we have information to inform those choices!

Wow Fan, did I need to hear this! You so clearly and concisely described what I have been experiencing! I have been on a carb binge lately and was really busy beating myself up. I am just like you, I get claustrophobic thinking that I have to do it "forever". Thank you for giving me permission for occasional detours, as long as I get back on the keto journey. I am crying with relief. Thank you, thank you!

Thanks, this deeper level reflection than you get in most 'results' videos has been really helpful for me. I've also struggled with feeling trapped by dietary choice, and feeling limited enough as a vegetarian in very meat-eating Umbria, Italy. But I suffer badly from auto immune psoriatic arthritis, and I've been thinking I should try giving up gluten and lactose, and stumbled across your video... I love the idea of becoming attuned to my body, and having a more constant, happy way of eating. I am convinced to give this a try!

"Your body will guide you back, IF YOU ARE WILLING TO LISTEN," is the main takeaway for me.

I could listen to you all day. Wisdom and soothing voice, great combo.

Your explanation was spot on, thank you for taking time to do this video. I agree about the discovery about how relaxing and freeing it is. It was especially helpful to me who 'lived to eat' and food was always at the top of my list until keto came along and what a surprise it was.

You give voice to many of the things I’ve experienced, so thank you for that.

I could eat your keto vegan lasagna every day! I feel best on low amounts of simple carbs, high protein, moderate good fats. Warm weather helps me accomplish more easily; I just don't want lots of food. I'm also more able to eat well when I'm emotionally healthy and I'm working to get back to that! Good to hear your report! Thank you!

This is so relatable. I am always starving or stuffed. Thanks for sharing this so thoughtfully x

Thank you so much for this. I am still a work in progress, but I really appreciated all the encouragement you offered in this video.

This is the first time I've heard someone understand what I've been through. Amazing.

You look SOOO good, and healthy and awake and stunning. Your skin is so beautiful. I have started Keto Vegan for few weeks, intuitively and seeing changes, not omitting the nutrients and vitamins required. Your video is so informative, helpful and inspiring. Thank you !

Thank you sooooo much, Fan, this was very interesting and soooo true !!! 👍👍👍 Love your recipes and your voice ❤❤!! Sending you a BIG BIG HUG and nice greetings from Germany, Ela 🤗

Excellent presentation! Before keto/low carb, I struggled the same as you. Keto has helped me so much. Thank you!

Very informative and encouraging. I found your channel a couple of years ago and have tried many of your recipes for my daughter who has coeliacs and chooses veganism. Some very tasty food and at last learned how to cook with tofu. Thanks!

I don't think I've ever heard anyone talk about food issues that you have described. The frustration of feeling too full for the natural rhythm of our body. Where we don't feel like we're starving. Versus feeling like we're so full it's ridiculous thank you so much. Thank you for the information you've shared on your channel I will be watching

For years I've been making your recipes; just today I found this vid, on the keto process itself. It's great to hear how you experience this way of eating. Like others here, I've also missing meals when not feeling hungry. At first I thought I'd just forgotten what I'd eaten (which was a bit worrying!!); then that feeling of not being shackled by food took over, and I fell in love with ketogenic nutrition. More power to you for all that you do!

This woman launched an incredible weight loss on the vegan keto diet. I felt great. I fell off of it and am now getting back on. I'm 2 days in...already in ketosis... and feeling better than I have felt in years. I am focused in a way that I was really missing.

I love the way you explain things and I so relate to your experience before keto! Thanks a lot for sharing! 💗

Thank you for telling us your experience.. ❤️ I have been on a keto diet since july 2018 (but I'm not vegan) and I'm very happy with it.. like you said, not feeling constantly hungry is a fantastic "side effect" of keto! I don't weigh food so it's never been a stressful thing for me.. I was prediabetic before, but now my blood work is normal (and I lost 20 kilos) so I'm very happy with my way of eating.

You put some great thoughts into words that most everyone can identify with and understand. I am not vegetarian but can gain much from this video. I'm a "fan".

You are so lovely. Thanks for sharing your experience. It's helpful in ways you can't tell.

Thank you so much for this video ! I really needed something like that ... I am happy for you !

You are so right about the freedom from thinking or all that anxiety inducing food logging. When I started vegetarian keto…I kept it very simple and stripped down. That is where most of my weight loss came from quickly. Then I started doing a lot of baking and things went sideways with a stall. If you keep it simple 90% of the time and then treat yourself with home made keto baked goods or just small bite sized pieces on the daily it’s amazing how good you feel. Not hungry and constantly obsessing over food. So weird when I am on sugar (went off Keto for a whileeee but back now!) sugar makes me kinda kooky tbh! Gets me very moody, depressed and kind of obsessive! I feel soooo great on Keto honestly. Love your videos and soothing voice. Your food is wholesome and creative. Thank you so very much for a great 5 years! 💖

I really enjoy hearing you. Many of them Resonate with me. I hope you keep enjoying sharing with us

Congratulations! And I love your recipes!

I felt like that also. Thank you do much for sharing .❤

This feeling to be never hungry again was for me the most important point in this way of diet. My whole life I had to cut my food other wise I would gain weight. I‘m sportive and slim, but as a little child I was a little thicker and all the adults around me give me treats to show their love, because they had no time for me. I was raised up and lived during the week the first three years of my life in a foster family because my parents both had to work to survive. My foster parents lost their own baby and gave me all their love and more they had to me. Now I‘m 56 and first time in life I‘m not battling with my habits to eat. I‘m feeling so free and happy. Thanks for your channel. You give me so much daily inspiration.

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and experiences with Keto❤

Good to see you!

Hearing you is like hearing myself, in that my approach to gluten-free/keto is exactly the same. Getting used to living it is complicated enough, it seems to me, without weighing and counting and calculating and analyzing every morsel. It's exactly 50 days of living this new life for me, and have to say, going back is out of the question. Really, I'm having the time of my life! The weight loss is slow, but the pounds are coming off with no other effort than staying well clear of excess carbs. Thanks for the chat!

Thankyou I needed to hear this right now as I've been struggling to get motivated to let go of carbs...like you I try to find ways out and sabotage myself... I will listen to this regularly. ❤

its been 4 years for me. ur recipes were big help as i was learning. thx for this review. very informative

Thank you Fan. I love your approach to eating 💕

Thank you so much for this, Fan! I hate that constant hunger thing! Love and blessings ♥️🙏

You helped me so so much! I have been in this food/body struggle it's seems my whole life! You put it so well in this video. Thank you! I plan to get back on course after seeing this. \o/

Perfect description of keto’s benefits

Hello, Fan Wow your journey is so inspiring. Thank you for sharing good recipes.

You put into words what I have experienced being on Keto for not quite a year (Mid-May for me). Thank you!

Your wisdom is priceless...much ❤️ luv

Superb explanation for people considering this way of eating....making it such a personal experience ! Thank you

Hello Heavenly Fan! Love your Recipes and all your insight, thank you so much

Thank you so much for all the recipes you have given us. I have become allergic to meat and eggs. I think it was from tick bites here in Australia. It left me with a fear of what to eat. I knew I had to be vegan and I have celiac disease so have always eaten gluten free. But now I had to find recipes that were vegan and gluten free. You have given me this wonderful net to fall into.

This was fascinating and you are so eloquent!

Excellent video!! Thank you for sharing your journey! Powerful insights!! 😊

Sweet, Thoughtful Fan ... I think I will probably watch or listen to this video every day for a while and then once a week thereafter for the rest of my life. It isn't enough to simply 'know' this information ~ I think the emotion & vulnerability in your words adds so much more to 'what' you've said that I want to (probably 'need' to) hear it often and gradually internalize it. Going through living a Keto lifestyle has consumed a lot of my brain activity these past few years and listening to how you approach Keto just makes way more sense. Absolutely the single BEST KETO VIDEO I've ever watched. Thank you.

Thank you I needed to hear this. Very articulate 😊

I love your voice and the depth and eloquence of the topic of mastering self.❤❤❤

I'm predibetic, lyme disease, osteoarthritis possibly underlying auto immune disease waiting to see rheumatologist and 17 stone because my joints are so painful I gained weight. I cut down on carbs and feel the benefits but I know that the only way to shift the weight and feel better is keto. This seemed quite an overwhelming task but then I found your channel this weekend. The recipes look so delicious and are doable and won't feel like im missing out. I'm going to write a list of ingredients to start. 💐💗

As someone who has had food issues all across the spectrum and also done a ton of personal experimentation to try to heal the issues, I really, really identify with all you've done here. Your channel is truly helpful and your whole manner is very soothing on complicated confusing and oftentimes very frustrating overbearing issues we face with food ❤

Fantastic content sharing! Thank you Fan!

Fan, thanks so much for your honesty and insights... hearing your life story, gives clarity to mine, thank you

Really grateful I listened to this. It’s helped me to not feel guilty when I have an occasional splurge. You are right - it’s like I can just switch back again with ease.

Thank you for sharing and speaking of being free of guilt. Be blessed.

That was REALLY well said!! Good job articulating something that is so complex and difficult to explain, but you sure did it!! It happens that you and I are just alike on all points you spoke about, so to hear you articulate that was really illuminating and clarifying and concise and I sure do thank you for that ♥️also I really like your recipes! 👍 Like you said not everyone is alike but you and I are, and anyone who has experienced these kind of issues will benefit from what you've said. I feel very proud of you🙏 Thank you so much♥️

My doctor suggested I see a nutritionist to help me have a healthy relationship with food. What you described is what I've been trying to explain to my doctor. Thank you, I feel free this very moment! ❤🤗🤗🤗❤

Thank you for shaing . It is totally true in my experience too and lovely to hear! I love the mental charity keto gives me and that is a missive motivation for me to stay with it and started to develop a new way of living that is with no resistance and guilt. I leared in this process how to listen to my body, it is fascinating ❤

Really interesting and inspirational. Thank you

I love listening to your calm voice❤

Great points you had thank you so much for sharing the video 🙏❤

I love the educated English accent.

I can relate big time. Diagnosed with diabetes Jan. 2023. Always loved high protein and fresh veggies. But unaware of how much starch, gluten, carbs and sugars in breads in American food. Now total Keto learning a new way of cooking which I enjoy. Thank you.

So interesting! Thank you for your insights 🙂

YOU TOUCHED ME 💖 I'M TRYING TO FOLLOW YOUR WAY 🙏

I'm 62 and vegan for 7 years after several periods of vegetarianism. This is a great video. Thank you so much.

Thank you for this. I have often tried your recipes and they always turn out great. I loved listening to this video. I am T2D and because of keto I am diet controlled. My weight loss has been slow and I have never understood this, I follow keto and intermittent fasting. I am trying to keep motivated as my health is good, if not my weight 😂

Wonderful video. I can relate to what you’re saying. Thank you for sharing. Very much appreciated. ❤

this is comforting and helpful. Thank you.

This video was such a pleasure to listen to: thank you! I related to all of it. Especially the ease with which the body can remind us we are better off with very few carbs when we stray a little and indulge. After experiencing the clarity and clean, smooth energy of ketosis, it becomes so easy to recognize what is not great about burning carbs, and that recognition becomes all the motivation that is needed. All the best, Fan!
