Or how I got from no where to now here! Welcome to my midlife crisis I will be honest, direct, and funny. I hope we can learn something along the way about life, recovery from addiction, and turning a 50+ near diabetic 70 lbs. overweight couch potato into a lean healthy competitive athlete.

Dance of the Kumquats
Eating vegan means consuming no animal products but leaves EVERYTHING else. Everything is pretty amazing if you consider the world of fruits and vegetables includes enough variety to eat something different everyday for the rest of your life. I have had so much fun blanching chard or kale then topping them with cooked Kashi and eating a warm salad. Sliced Kumquats in a spinach salad it is the first time I have ever eaten that funny little but tasty grape orange.
Meal planning for me has always started with choosing the type and cut of meat then what side dishes would complement it. It sure is liberating to be free from that mind set.
