in Health and Weight Loss
Hello! My name is Heather and I'm turning 30 in a few days. I've been working on weight loss for awhile now and Hibernating Holiday Heather has really set me back recently.

I am vegan and looking for friends who are also vegan to share support, recipes, food diaries, and non scale victories with. Judgment free zone for sure. I have found through this journey that something that helps me a lot is getting inspiration from the food diaries of my friends. Maybe your every day go-to meal is my next inspiration for a new go-to for myself. Maybe some of you are snacking on secrets I haven't thought of!

I'm just ultimately looking for people to share in this journey with me. Please add me or comment here and I will add you if you are interested :)

    Hi! I'm vegan, too, anyone feel free to add me! My goal is to lose 20 pounds while maintaining muscle and gaining strength. I'm a pole dancer and my progress is more important to me than weight loss. Am currently trying to increase my protein, aiming for 20% of calories from protein.

    That's awesome! Pole dance is such a great strengthener. I have faith in you ❤️ adding you!
