Hi everyone!
I've been away from MFP for awhile and boy it feels GREAT to be back! Like everyone, I've had a lot of changes going on in my life (and body....LOL) over the past couple of years and now I want to start concentrating on getting myself in better shape/health and making myself a top priority.
I was wondering if there are any members in this group who, like me, are over 50? (Sure hope I don't scare away all my young friends here.....you are all very dear to me!
) It's just that finding vegan friends in general is tough (as most of you know).....finding vegan friends in my age group seems to be tougher.
Either way though, I'm very pleased to be a part of this Team Vegan group just as is.
Feel free to respond here or message me if you wish.
Wishing you all an amazing day!

I'm going to send a friend request to the last three folks who commented here. The older posts are people who are no longer active on MyFitnessPal. I just started losing weight a couple of months ago and I'm really loving it.
