If anyone could make eating a 100% plant-based diet for three weeks sound easy and exciting, it would of course be Beyonce. Queen Bey recently announced not-so-surprisingly on Good Morning America that she's vegan, which goes along with her partnership with trainer and exercise physiologist Marco Borges, 22 Days Nutrition, a plant-based home delivery meal service.
The superstar recently admitted that she lost over 65 lbs due to the diet and showed off her new body at the 2015 MET gala. “After having my daughter, I made a conscious effort to regain control of my health and my body,” Beyonce stated. “But I didn’t want to do a crash diet. I was a mom now. I needed to change my ways and set an example for my child.”
Back in 2013, Beyonce and husband Jay-Z took Borges' 22 Days Nutrition challenge, eating only whole-foods like beans, grains and vegetables.
Via a press release, Beyonce said:
"I am so grateful that I took the challenge and credit Marco with leading by example," says Beyonce. "He is the most energetic person I know and it's all because of his decision to live a healthy lifestyle. He came up with a great program to get people motivated to make better nutritional choices. All you have to do is try. If I can do it, anyone can. I am excited to partner with him."
Why 22 days? The program is based on the popular theory it takes 21 days to break a habit or make a new one. By day 22, the new habit should be more of a lifestyle.

The 22 Days Nutrition delivery service offers...three meal plans, ranging in cost from $9.76 to $16.50 per meal.
Borges assures the goal isn't to turn everyone into vegans, but to help people make healthier choices.
"We all know the importance and value of eating plant-based foods but often times find ourselves trapped in a series of bad habits that sabotage optimum wellness. The Vegan Meal Delivery program makes it easier to reset your habits with healthy and delicious plant-based foods."
