Any other vegans?

Options
Are there any other vegans looking to lose weight and get into shape here? I have been vegan for over 9 years, but I only recently began focusing on learning how to cook and be healthier. I became a vegan for ethical reasons and realized if I want to continue long term, I have to learn how to cook for myself! Now that I am buying my own groceries, I can't afford the processed stuff, I need to cook from scratch and figure things out as I go. I'd love to hear from other vegans!
