Until recently I had described my diet as plant-based, as opposed to being vegan. Because veganism is the whole lifestyle thing, including not wearing leather shoes, etc, and I hadn't reached that stage yet. I only consumed a diet of 100% plants, hence a plant-based diet. Simple enough I thought. but then up pops this article about a chap who has had amazing success losing weight on a plant-based diet which is described as 90% plants and 10% eggs and fish.
Although in other parts of the article it mistakenly refers to a vegan diet, but that's the Daily Mail for you
I perhaps should have described myself as having a vegan diet instead. Ironically I had originally described myself as having a plant-based diet so as not to confuse the holistic approach that is veganism.
I have noticed that we do tend to tie ourselves up in knots with various labels.
