Someone mentioned it on another vegetarian group.

> 7) Is there anything specific you want to get out of the group?

>

Well, I have been making some lifestyle changes the last month or so and

I have lost 13 pounds almost without effort. But it's a drop in the

bucket. So I am looking to share tips, support, ideas, motivation to

get the ball really rolling.

> 8) Tell us a few of your favourite things.

I am a serial hobbyist. I love to sew, knit, bead, make soap, lotions,

paper. Right now I've just come off a knitting jag (the weather is

warming up) and I've been making jewelry. I'm a single parent of two

girls, one a mostly vegetarian and one an avowed carnivore. (The

carnivore is a serious student of ballet, so I don't mind her

consumption of meat one bit. That kid is sooo skinny, I'm grateful for

whatever protein she eats.) My other daughter has my body type, poor thing.

 

Anyway, this group so far seems pretty quiet. I look forward to finding

that kale recipe - I just read an article on the benefits of kale but

have no experience buying/cooking it. In fact, I've only recently

gotten into cooking so I'm learning.

 

Thanks!
