Vegetarian 4 hour body canned soup

It is not easy being a vegetarian on the 4 hour body diet. It seems there are only so many recipes that combine vegetables, legumes, and vegetarian protein. I am happy to share my vegetarian recipes and discoveries with other vegetarians on the 4 hour body diet. If you find something please share it with me!

I have found the best vegan canned soup that fits in with the 4 hour body diet. It is Amy's organic Golden Lentil (Indian Dal) soup and it is delicious. The ingredients are; Filtered water, organic yellow split peas, organic red lentils, organic carrots, organic tomato puree, organic extra virgin olive oil, shallots, organic garlic, organic ginger, sea salt, spices, organic turmeric, and organic black pepper.

I have seen this soup anywhere from $2.50 - $3.50 per can. Here is a link to Amy's website with information about this soup. http://www.amys.com/products/product-detail/soups/000593

My first week on the 4 Hour Body diet

I am a chubby vegetarian.  I gained a lot of weight when I was pregnant with my son.  After he was born, I never did take that weight off.  In fact, I just kept adding weight!  I have tried everything so when I heard that people I knew were losing weight on the 4 hour body diet, I bought the book.  This is not a paid post, this is my own personal experiment.

After the first week I am down 5.5 pounds and 5.25 inches.  I will keep everyone updated on my progress as a way to share my experience as well as keep myself accountable.

If you would like to read more about this crazy ass diet, check out the website at http://www.fourhourbody.com/.

As I go I will be sharing vegetarian recipes that are 4 hour body friendly.  If you are a vegetarian trying this diet, be prepared to eat a lot of lentils!
