Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead: How Fruits & Vegetables Changed My Life
Joe Cross - 2011
He decided to make a major change, so he did something radical: he decided to embark on a sixty-day "Reboot" to give his body a chance to detoxify and heal itself. For two straight months, he drank only fresh fruit and vegetable juices - no solid food of any kind, no soda, no coffee, no alcohol. He decided to turn his Reboot into a journey across the U.S. and bring a film crew along to capture him talking with the people he met along the way, sharing his experience (and his juice). He made a hugely inspirational film about the experience, also called Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead. This book details his journey.

Fat, Gay Vegan - Eat, Drink and Live Like You Give a Sh!t
Sean O'Callaghan - 2018
But for a word that's grown so popular, what does being vegan actually mean? The vegan community has grown hugely in the last decade, but is surrounded by questions of ethics, of community, of celebrity food fads and spurious health claims. For the last seven years, Fat Gay Vegan has been a voice that cuts through the fuss and the fads, and calling bullshit wherever he finds it. Now, he brings together his story and those of others in the vegan community to answer to the questions both vegans and non-vegans alike might have: Why should I be vegan in the first place? Does not being vegan mean I'm a bad person? What should my friends and family do... and are they bad people? Do I need to be a gym bunny to be worthy of veganism? (answer: no) Can I still eat junk food if I'm vegan? (answer: definitely yes!) In Sean's own words: When a wave of realisation swamps you and you come to learn how incredibly simple and sensible choosing veganism is, you'll have me sitting up there in your head like a friendly, fat uncle whispering, "I knew you could do it." The day will arrive when you proclaim, "Hey, if that fat gay guy can do it, so can I!" Packed with personal stories and non-preachy advice, this is a compassionate, no-nonsense guide to veganism from one of the community's biggest celebrities.
