Hello all-- I'm a long-time visitor to veganbodybuilding.com but new to the forums. I was vegan for 3 years but fell off the wagon about a year ago. I've finally committed to going back to the life, I miss it so much! Nothing compares to the energy, clarity and endurance of a plant-based diet. I was a weightlifter in high school, about 5 years ago, but haven't been very disciplined as of late. I build and ride bicycles, but once again it's been about a year since I rode, knowing I was so out of shape. I'm getting myself together because I miss the feeling of being fit. I'm "healthy", with better than average HCL/LCL and blood pressure, BMI of 21, etc, but my numbers have been getting worse and I'm too young to be like that. I'm excited to get back into what I love and talk with people who get it! --Jack
