My Story: From Searching for Weight Loss… to Finding a Purpose

My name is Bongani Mthombeni, proudly South African, and this blog is more than just a website—it’s a journey, a transformation, and a mission that began on September 1st, 2016, the day I decided to go vegan.

What makes that day unforgettable is not just the decision itself, but the moment I was living in. People around me were playing with water, pouring buckets over each other, laughing, enjoying the moment. It looked fun. It looked exciting. But at the same time, I couldn’t stop thinking: this is nothing compared to what a vegan diet can save—water, animals, the planet, and even human lives.

That contrast stayed with me. It was like I had stepped into a different level of awareness.

How It All Started: Not Health… Not Ethics… But Business

Ironically, my vegan journey didn’t start with animals, health, or even climate change.

It started with a simple question:
“How can I make money online?”

I had discovered affiliate marketing and the idea of helping people while earning income. One of the biggest markets online? Weight loss. So I thought:

“Okay, let me promote weight loss diet books.”

I wrote my first book review post. I published it. I was excited.

But then something happened.

Someone commented and said they didn’t understand what I was talking about… and suggested I do more research.

At first, that might sound discouraging. But that comment changed my life.

The Turning Point: One Post That Changed Everything

I went back and started researching again. That’s when I found a post about vegan diets and weight loss.

It wasn’t just another diet article—it was detailed, powerful, and convincing. It connected the dots between food, health, and results in a way I had never seen before.

It felt like the person who wrote it knew exactly what they were talking about.

That led me deeper…

I went to Wikipedia.

I started reading about veganism—not just as a diet, but as a lifestyle backed by science, doctors, and global awareness.

I learned about:

  • The health benefits of plant-based eating
  • The role of diet in chronic diseases
  • The environmental impact of animal agriculture
  • The connection to global warming

Everything started to make sense.

And I remember thinking:

“This is it. This is the answer.”

The Decision: September 1st, 2016

That same year, after everything I had learned, I made a decision that would define my life:

I went vegan.

Not slowly. Not halfway. Fully committed.

From that day, everything changed:

  • The way I eat
  • The way I think
  • The way I see the world
  • The way I create

Before Veganism: The DJ Life & Creativity

Before going vegan, I was already a creative person.

I was a DJ, starting my journey around 2012 and continuing into the years after. I love music deeply—especially Afro house and electronic sounds. I can DJ on 4 decks, inspired by legends like DJ Kent.

Music taught me rhythm, discipline, and expression.

But that’s not all.

I’ve always been:

  • Active (soccer, freestyle tricks, running)
  • Creative (drawing, music, dancing)
  • Curious (especially about maths and learning)
  • Hands-on (fixing bicycles, understanding how things work)

I also have a deep appreciation for culture. I can play Ndebele/IsiNdebele traditional songs on piano or organ, something I’m truly proud of.

After Veganism: A New Mission

Going vegan didn’t take anything away from me—it added purpose.

It gave me:

  • Clarity
  • Direction
  • A message worth sharing

I became not just a vegan—but a health enthusiast, a researcher, and eventually… an author.

My Books: From Learning to Teaching

What started as research turned into creation.

Today, I have written around 48 books, many focused on vegan health, weight loss, and disease prevention.

Why This Blog Exists

This blog is where everything comes together.

Here, I will share:

  • Vegan health knowledge
  • Weight loss strategies that actually work
  • Real science behind plant-based living
  • Personal experiences and lessons
  • Ways to live sustainably and consciously

Because veganism is not just about food.

It’s about:

  • Improving human health
  • Living with purpose

More Than Vegan: A Lifestyle

I don’t just care about diet.

I care about the future.

I love:

  • Electric cars
  • Sustainable living
  • Clean energy
  • Forest farming (inspired by Robert Hart)

I believe the future belongs to people who think long-term—about health, about the planet, and about humanity.

Final Words: From One Search to a Life Mission

It all started with a simple search:

“How to lose weight on a diet?”

And it led me to something much bigger than weight loss.

It led me to:

  • Veganism
  • Purpose
  • Creation
  • Impact

If you are reading this, you might be where I once was—searching.

Let me tell you this:

The answer you’re looking for might not just change your body… it might change your entire life.

Welcome to my world.
