if t wants you to eat meat because by "going vegan" you are using that to eat high volumes of carbs which aren't agreeing with you, then I would say to take another look at what your goals are. You might have more leeway in your diet when your appetite is more under control. I have been very happy with not changing my basic diet TOO much, but having a set group of foods to fall back on. I can always get myself a yogurt or an apple or a chicken sandwich or some veg and hummus. make vegan "versions" if you wish, but keep it simple, keep it small, and keep it handy, those are my watchwords. i've lost 20 and have at least 100 more to go.
