Active vegans and veggies

TheBoldCat · February 2017

Hi everyone,

When I used this app first time I got active and was eating healthy. And even after I kept my habits. Unfortunately, last year went through family disaster, still grieving and being upset but trying to get back. As last year I wasn't exercising, eating junk and started emotional eating, I put on a lot.

I'm vegan, into climbing and running, looking for new friends to support each other and reach our goals and mainly keep it going.

Have a great day

Denise

Hi Denise,

I have had some major family issues the past couple of years too. 5 immediate family deaths (including my cat) and I have a few very sick family members still...I get how grieving can be derailing to your health and fitness plans.

I am a vegetarian (I eat a predominantly vegan diet, but I drink wine (which I understand is rarely vegan) and occasionally eat things that have milk/eggs in them and I'm ok with that)

I love running, and am trying to like resistance training.

Friend me if you want

There are many vegan wines. If you're interested, I've found Barnivore.com to be a great resource for finding out which alcohol is vegan and which isn't. They contact the companies directly to find out ingredients and if animal products are used during filtering (which is usually the issue with non-vegan wines).

Thanks @janejellyroll
I really should look it up because from what I gather the non vegan ingredients in wine are kinda gross

I'm a reasonably active beegan

(means person who CBA to avoid honey, but is militant about everything else

); I do sport four days a week, and walk/cycle a lot.

I'm aiming to get to my goal weight (1.5kg/3.3lbs to go), and become fitter and more competent at my hobby.
