BrianC Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 Hey all. First off, thanks for the great website, Robert, as well as all the great contributions from the members. I've been pursuing the forum for a few days and I must say it is awesome. I’m honored to be a part of it.A little background on myself- I'm 23 and a former 'typical' bodybuilder since the age of about 17. I fell out of the bbing loop around 21 because of the adverse effects I was experiencing. This was not steroid related (I never did that stuff) but rather, in retrospect, from the toxicity of the foods I was eating in huge quantities...meat of all kinds, cheese, whey protein, eggs, processed foods, etc. Needless to say, I was fatigued and my internal health was suffering. So, I took about a year off from that lifestyle, got into cycling, lost a bunch of weight, AND -most importantly- became a vegan. Flash forward a year later and here I am looking to get back into bodybuilding... as a healthy vegan. I don't have the intention to compete and be competitive but rather to do it for fun and my own personal development. So, with that aside, I look forward to getting to know you guys and hopefully make some friends who share this lifestyle. Take care, guys and gals.

Vegan Joe Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Howdy! I remember going to the Space Needle for dinner with my future wife in 1975. We sat down and I went to the mens room. Not knowing the needle spins I get back to where I thought we were sitting and thought she had left me. A second later I realized that it was spinning. Hope to see your input.
