Hey there I'm a junk food Vegan looking for fitness and support buddies (Vegan or not). My goal is 60lbs and I'm 5'9". I'm a junk food Vegan but hope to achieve eating better at meals. For now I'm watching calories. My home is Colorado and I loveeee hiking! Getting married in a year! I need to look good for my wedding, but also feel good for the adventurous lifestyle my fiancé and I live! I'm ready to get smaller, feel good, and be fit the rest of my life after! I'm sick of being exhausted a mile in on our hikes and feel bloated all the time! Just started this journey 3 days ago I would love for new friends here to hold me accountable and so that I log here every day and keep up! I'm super motivated and I'll motivate you too!!

    Waaaaah Colorado is top of my bucket list of places to visit (damn you Instagram, you have a lot to answer for)! I'm over here in the UK cheering you on and have a similar (non-vegan) goal and my wedding in November (eeek)!! xx

    Hey there! I'm not vegan, but I'd be happy to help with support. I have over 70lbs to lose until I get to my goal. :)

    Hi! I am a vegan also, who has delved into too much vegan junk food and vegan gelato (living in Italy at the mo!) and have about 6 kg to lose/about 10-15 lbs! I'll add you. So jealous that you live in Colorado!

    Hello! I'm newly vegan, about a month, and new on here - good to see you! I'm using it to learn about getting enough nutrition as a new vegan, and also because I have 60lbs to lose, so I better start counting calories/macros.

    I would love to get to a vegan lifestyle. I've seen it transform the health of several people in my family. But junk food is a problem for me too...can we say coconut ice cream?! Feel free to add me for support!

    Vegan is definitely easy to do if you're ready to take a leap and try it out. You can still be pretty junky eating off being Vegan but I'm ready to be more healthy. Lol

    Hello, I'm not vegan, but have lots to lose. I love hiking, but have done very little of it in the last few years due to injury and weight gain. I'm ready to get back to nature. I live in Alaska and have 68 lbs to lose. I've lost 17 so far thanks to MFP helping me stay accountable.
