non-LOSER

So maybe I was a little naive when I started this, but I thought for sure going vegan would make me lose weight. I did cut out fast food, meat, eggs, dairy, all the bad stuff... So why no loss... Uhmmm maybe  definitely had to do with the fact that all the vegan recipes I made were FRIED!! Yeah, so I'm starting all over.. This time around I have to realize:

• Fried is fried... whether its chicken or tofu... its still gonna pack on the pounds..
• Too much bread is never good... I cant make every mean a sandwich!
• Pasta can be a friend or an enemy...in this case DON'T keep your enemies closer!!

Does anyone know of healthy vegan recipes blogs that I can look to for guidance..I need help!!
