The myth of "effortless" weight loss and the politics of the vegan movement.  NOTE: This video is, in large part, a response to a letter from a vegan viewer diagnosed with both bulimia and an anxiety disorder, asking for my advice as to whether or not she should share her experience on youtube, both to help others (with similar problems) as part of our peculiar social movement.  Please do not bother to send me hate-mail if you didn't watch the whole video (or, at least, fast-forward to hear the conclusion before posting a comment)… it is really counter-productive for these videos to accumulate comments based on the first 5 minutes.
