  1. Hello all! I was a member a while back, but things got derailed a bit. Anyhow, im both back here and back at the gym! I have been vegan for years and years, and my current goals are to lean up and build, particularly my upper body which I have neglected.
  2. Maybe that arises in people who don't believe strongly in variety of colors, and who don't understand healthy foods at all...
  3. I was... pretty much how I am now. I actually haven't changed a whole lot personality wise, then again I'm only 21. Close relationship with my dad who is my best friend, good school ethic, and I am about as 'vanilla' as it gets. I've never even gotten drunk.
  4. I'm right by! 45minutes south in Bellingham, WA.
  5. My father feels this way, so he does what you do. he says he's in a strict plant based 'life'.
  6. That usually just means that the processing plants and packaging plants do not only produce vegan products. So while the product you are choosing is vegan, it may have been around and in contact with machines that have been in contact with unvegan things. I usually don't worry too much about it, but then again I usually eat whole foods so I dont have worry about it.
  7. The "Yogamazing" Podcast is my favorite if I miss a class.
  8. I dont think my partner could pay me to cook a dead animal.
  9. I don't use any electrical devices for one and a half days every single week, and even during the rest of the week, I'm not glued to my devices. Life seems kinda sad for those that are.

    Hi there, you may check out some of Colleen Patrick Goudreau's books and her podcast, they are very helpful, and she is simply amazing!! I have never heard of such a reaction from quitting milk, usually people feel instantly better, their skin clears up, and they stop having stomach problems. I would guess your sores are from something else. I drink tap water!

    I couldn't agree more with that. To me, overpopulation is the largest problem facing the planet, well, overpopulation combined with rampant over consumption.

    The bolded parts I totally agree with! However, what I italicized I have a small bit to put it: Almost all of the corn, arguably the most destructive crop in the states, is grown to feed cattle. The GMO, subsidized crop that is destroying the land and the animals (humans included) on the land, is grown to fed animals who were not evolved to eat that food. When you stop eating cows, you stop that cycle. If everyone stopped eating cows, and after the earth somehow (big question mark, because some would say it can't) be restored back to healthy land, we would have so much more land, because between the land where cattle are raised (which is wasteland) and the land where the corn for the cows is grown, you would free up so much poisoned land to regrow. (wow I really started to ramble) I would agree with your statements more if it wasn't for the simple fact that corn industry is how it is, with all the land it takes up, and it mostly being grown for cows. I think the basic idea is doing the least harm. At least that's where my family and I are at. We try to do the least harm possible to ourselves and the world around us. This means buying from small farms, food co-ops, growing what we can, and we really do get almost everything we need that way. Then again, we live in the beautiful Pacific Northwest where it's a bit easier.
