Hi: I went vegan back in 2004, and avoided a heart bypass operation. I pretty well continued, about 85% vegan with some trips for cooked cow cadavers. (steak or such) Now, went back to vegan. Got a trainer at the gym, needed the exercise. Needing an outline, went to the RAVE type of nutritiion, had been following Hallelujah Acres for some 8 years. Anyway, I'm 6'3", now 205#, at one time I weighed 310# and took size 50 trousers. Got into a size medium shirt for the first time since maybe 10th or 11th grade. I'm 70 years, retired Pharmacist and NC LMBT. i don't know what i want to do when i grow up! Looking for encouragement, maybe a vegan buddy / gym buddy.
