Beyoncé has just announced she still occasionally eats meat, after publically living as a vegan since her and Jay-Z completed the 22 day challenge back in 2013. During an announcement on Good Morning America Beyoncé said ‘Now, you know, I still eat meat and it’s all about balance, but absolutely I make better choices.’
Beyonce’s lifestyle
plan, created by her nutritionist Marco Borges, focuses on a carb-heavy,
plant-based vegan diet, so naturally no meat or dairy is allowed. In his new
Beyoncé-endorsed promo video, Borges says: ‘22 Days is about allowing people to
define plant-based living the way that works best for them’. The diet
completely rules out dairy, gluten and eggs, but Borges believes that after the
initial 22 days are up people can alter the plan in a way which suits them.
This is why Beyoncé and others following his ‘vegan’ plan can occasionally eat
meat. ‘It’s not about perfection, it’s about progression,’ says Borges.

In the Good Morning America clip Beyoncé
praises her new lifestyle, saying ‘I felt like my skin was really firm, a lot
tighter…and the weight stayed off.’ Speaking of her previous battle with diets
Beyoncé also revealed ‘I am not naturally the thinnest. I have curves. I’m
proud of my curves and I have struggled since a young age with diets and
finding something that actually works, actually keeps the weight off, has been
difficult for me’.

being all of nothing, but he believes it’s not about that
Beyoncé slimmed down to tiny size 6 after completing Borges’ The
22-Day Revolution: The plant-based programme that will transform your body,
reset your habits, and change your life
saying her energy naturally
increased, she slept better, sustained weight loss, and had improved
digestion and clarity.
Beyoncé and Jay-Z lost a combined 100lbs over 6 months on a plant based diet
, follows a similar diet pattern.
Believing in veganism, she does however enforce that you should do whatever works
for you, and you should make your own diet rules. If that means the occasional
slice of pizza or steak then that’s completely fine. We couldn’t agree
more.Think you could give veganism a try, even if its just part-time? Check out healthista’s 8 best vegan cookbooks
