If you are a vegan can you lose weight faster than if you eat meat?

Not necessarily; dieting is as much a matter of portion control and exercising as it is choice of what you eat.
If you are intent on losing weight through a vegan diet, try and make that diet as balanced as is possible, to ensure you get the right amounts of nutrients, proteins and minerals from your diet.
Oh, and 2.5 litres of water, daily, is usually of benefit to any attempts to lose weight, especially in the long term.

Not if you are insulin resistant. I went vegan then I went on Atkins (high protein low carbs). I lost the weight faster on Atkins. 30 lbs vs. 8 lbs (vegan) in 4 months. I don't experience bloating and gas on Atkins like I do on vegan.

Yes you definately can, Meat for the most sits in you system for a very long time. In fact in most people's systems they have pounds and pounds waste sitting in their intestinal tract from meats and startch and other things taht the body never digested or pushed out after it was digested. So in addition to exercise it is important to eat things that while 'clean you out' fruits do this a lot of vegtables, so herbs like cascara sagrata or gracia, or even a good dieters tea can help with getting all those things just sitting in you moving and up out of you. Also its important to drink a lot of water. Remember the idea is to flush out the old/bad and starting replacing it with healthier things.

In the mood for the hot meal? Make a enormous pot of veggie bean soups, divide into two-cup containers, and store within the freezer. Before bed, place a container inside fridge, then grab it before heading out the door in the morning.
