25 Reasons Why You Can’t Stick With A Plant-Based Diet

Do you want to stick with eating a plant-based diet, but find it hard to do so? I was once that person.  I failed many times, but I never gave up.

Eating a plant-based diet is not easy, especially in a world where eating animal-based foods is the norm.

I see many people who start a plant-based diet and they never stick with it.  Why is it that one person can stick with eating a plant-based diet, while the next person cannot?

We are all individuals and I know that individuality and other circumstances play a major role in a person sticking with eating a plant-based diet.

If you really want to eat a plant-based diet, then you will do it.  It might take time for you to find diet that is best for you, but you cannot give up.

You have to hang in there through those tough times, because it is during those tough times when you learn the most about yourself.
