Justin Weber

Justin Weber resides in Southeastern Wisconsin. His career background as an English teacher may seem like an unlikely segue into authoring a cookbook, but his love of language and teaching others paired well with his passion for cooking. Justin's food and cooking journey began when his son was born. At the time he was nearly 400 pounds and was being warned by doctors that he was on the verge of major health complications. He reflected on his food choices, started moving more, and changed his eating habits. In two years he lost nearly 200 pounds and was told by his physician that he was in model health. As he learned more about health and nutrition he transitioned to eating whole food, plant based meals and living a vegan lifestyle. WFPB and veganism was never a weight loss plan, he simply feels better eating and living this way. Justin shares his food and health journey on social media, and in his book "The Whole Food Plant Based Diet," in order to provide a creative and holistic approach to cooking that empowers people to establish for themselves a healthy and sustainable lifestyle.
