Vegans and Ex-vegans

[opal73]

Freelee has always been terrible, I never understood her appeal especially in the peak of her Durianrider raw vegan cult days. Can’t believe there are people who actually take nutrition advice from her still.

If I ate pretty much only fruit I’d be on the toilet all day. So many 'fruitarians' (and vegans, for that matter) look so emaciated and sickly.

Idk, even cult leaders somehow get a following. They brainwashed so many people, and they're both still at it.

I’ve had a glance at some of the vegan ‘activist’ channels. bleeping hell! Some real psychos on there. Has anyone watched Joey Carbstrong? Ex crim and now a vegan evangelist? He’s creepy as duck!

I don't know what it is about vegans but so many of them seem to think they're superior to all the non-vegans out there....annoys me so much!

I agree, there are some good ones out there that respect that not everyone’s vegan but too many come off as super sanctimonious and preachy. Then there are all those that fake it because they just want to be trendy.

The only vegan channel I like is Pick Up Limes, so well done and some great recipes whether or not you’re a vegan.

Yeah it's the vocal majority of us on social media. Pretty much every vegan I know in real life are chill.

Did anyone else used to watch Raw Alignment? That’s been a wild ride

 

[SkinnyTurkeyDinosaur]

I've watched most of the big vegan youtubers and I'm constantly yo yoing between being vegan and not it's crazy how many are ex vegans now

Tim sheiff no longer being vegan was huge drama. He clearly went mental fasting and drinking his own pee. The amount of hatred and backlash he got for deciding not to be vegan anymore was shocking.
Joey Carbstrong freaks me out too. he doesn’t blink!
Another that gets on my bits is Hench herbivore. A man who is clearly using steroids pretending he is doing it all by being vegan. Conman.

Ahaha yes, I used to watch her for a laugh. Was shocked when she did a complete 180 degrees and became an extreme meat eater. I haven't looked up on what she's up to in recent times though.

I remember a video of her facial expression whilst she used a vitamin suppository not surprised she did a 180 to All The Meat (a lot of ex vegans seem to be doing this)

Thoughts on Miles Kasiri/ Healthycrazycool

I think he is still very obsessed with food, I wonder how over his ED he actually is.

Agreed he isn't over it, but he said he isn't too. Why he won't do intuitive eating.

Anyone watch helenarose?

Me too. Thankfully the ones I’ve come across on u tube don’t represent any vegans I know. Most of the u tube ones are full of bull

joey Carbstrong is as dodgy as... Agree about HH. He looks absolutely awful. His face looks like it’s melting

Yeah I do! She's one of the few vegan youtubers I actually still enjoy watching. I like how self-deprecating her sense of humour and editing style are, and she seems quite down-to-earth. I also think she gives sensible advice about nutrition/ED recovery and her approach to food is refreshingly normal for the vegan community (and in general). I follow her friend Sophie (cornonthecob) on instagram too, and she seems like another fairly mature one with nice, non-rabbitey, normal recipes.

I like Miles (healthycrazycool) too, though I agree with some of the earlier posters that the exaggerated love/appreciation of certain food and going on and on about the volume on his plate sort of still seem disordered - but I do appreciate the fact that he's honest about this. And then again, does anyone have a completely 'normal' relationship with food in this day and age... I like his no-BS approach to veganism, though. And while I can't afford to eat like him nor do I ever crave fruit/veg in those quantities, I agree with his stance on how intuitive eating can be dangerous for some people. His nut butter reviews genuinely kill me - they're great.

Which other vegan youtubers are people still watching/are somewhat palatable? I watch Unnatural Vegan sometimes, and I like Madeleine Olivia and NikkiVegan's content in general. I follow JessBeautician, SweetPotatoSoul, Rachel Ama, Bosh, and PickUpLimes for recipes too.

I like cheaplazyvegan but I hate the way she says "okay" every two minutes. Her recipes are so good but I hate the way she says that word

Maddie Lymburner is no longer vegan!

She's not a life coach well as much as she claims to be. Charges people a fortune to do a course called confidence mastery or something like that.

I used to love her before but she keeps changing so much it's hard to believe any one it was genuine.

I personally hate all these vegans who give us vegans a bad name. Most of the ones who went back to eating meat never had a balanced diet in the first place.
