Secretninjanut Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 Hi! I'm Jennifer from San Francisco; I've been reading the articles and board for awhile, but had some downtime at work so I figured I might as well take the 5 minutes and officially join the community. I've been a vegetarian since 14, and tried to be vegan while I was a starving student (literally) in college. But I didn't do a very healthful job, so I went back to being veg. for years. Now I am a teacher and am vegan again, and love living in the SF Bay Area because we have a lot of locally grown organic produce at our fingertips. I've been training with weights for a year, on and off, and recently just got very focused about reducing my body fat %. I'm petite but have 27%BF! Eegads! So, I'll probably keep you all posted on my journey to toned muscles and lower BF%, and in the meantime, I'll look forward to all the advice, opinions and information that are offered on this site.

veganmadre Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 Jennifer! Hi! I'm from Santa Cruz!!! Welcome! I'd love to meet up sometime if you are interested!! Any excuse to drive to San Fran would be warmly welcomed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Secretninjanut Posted November 16, 2005 Author Share Posted November 16, 2005 Veganmadre- I lived in Santa Cruz on and off for 6 years. First, during high school, up in Felton (I swear Jerry Garcia lives in Lompico), then during college on both the East and Westsides, and then my first year teaching I worked in Watsonville. I think in another post you mentioned wanting to work out w/out going to the gym- SC is the best place to live for doing outdoorsy things! Especially when it is so nice like today!!! We should go for a hike- you with your baby and me with my "baby". Cheers,Jenn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
