GETTYWeight loss: 4.5 stone transformation thanks to this diet plan
A WEIGHT loss transformation of 4.5 stone was achieved by a young woman thanks to following one very simple diet plan. By turning vegetarian and eating more protein she went from 14 stone to a lean 10

Weight loss can be a challenge but this young woman managed it all just by going vegetarian.

Emily Moore gained four stone at university by drinking and eating calorific foods.

After she vowed to shed weight she cut all meat from her diet, and now follows a high protein, 95 per cent plant based diet for her lean physique.

Through making cleaver swaps she swapped a heavier figure for svelte abs and slender limbs.

Explaining her weight loss methods she said:“It’s all about swapping the high sugar and fat foods for alternatives.

“I read up and started to get really savvy, so instead of going to the convenience store and spending £1 on a flapjack which I thought was healthy, I bought a box of 12 protein flapjacks online for £8 with my discount.

“I didn’t realise that the store bought flapjacks were actually really high in sugar and calories.”

Emily also swapped calorific morning lattes and cappuccinos for protein shakes which had only 100 calories and the 20grams of protein.

“Then I swapped my cocktails for gin and tonics or vodka sodas and I did reduce my drinking quite substantially,” she added.

For her food however the student decided to ditch meat all together, with incredible results.

“I switched to an almost entirely vegetarian based meal plan, as veggies are low calorie and filling but more importantly they’re cheaper!” she said.

“I tend to make burrito bowls full of veg, rice cakes or corn cakes with peanut butter is my go to evening snack.

“On weekends I love to swap fry ups for protein pancakes and flavour them with the sugar free syrups which are delicious and convenient but far lower in fat and sugar.
