Hi everyone! My name is Susana. I am 24 years old and live in Southern CA.
I am here because I want to be healthy and strong. Strokes and high blood pressure run in my family- my dad had one that left him paralyzed for 3 years. Despite that terrifying experience, I still continued unhealthy eating habits and no exercise. I attempted to lose weight a couple years back, and lost over 100 pounds. Unfortunately, I developed bulimia along the way. Although I would say I've recovered, I've also gained a lot of the weight back.
I realize now that I want to live a long happy life. I want to do this the "right" way. Clean eating and sweat! And for extra motivation, this June I will be meeting a very special person. c:

I'm a vegetarian but that doesn't mean i'm a healthy one -__- So I'd love to be friends with people who are vegetarian/vegan so I can sneak a peek at your food diaries! And even if you're not, we can still be friends and help support each other! Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!!

    Hi Susana! I'm an omnivore! You can add me, if you want. I can at least point you in the right direction.
