Hi! I am Carolyn and would love to talk about healthy eating! Check out my intro post!

in #myintroduction8 years ago (edited)

Hi, I’d like to introduce myself to the online community here on Steemit. My name is Carolyn and I am excited to be a part of the startup of this social media platform. I have heard a lot of good things from @kenny-crane about it and decided I’d like to be a part of the movement.

I have 25 years’ experience working in banking and communications. Home life is always an adventure for my husband and me; our two teenagers keep us pretty busy but we have a great time and a lot of fun with them!

My latest endeavor has been the transition to a plant based Vegan diet. As a result, I have seen wonderful results in the past several months. I struggled with some health issues but since making the changeover to a vegan diet I haven’t had any more problems. Pretty amazing! Making the change had its challenges but doing it a little bit at a time really helped me stick with it and learn the “new way” of eating. A much healthier and cleaner way.

I will be looking for others here that are interested in healthy eating and a Vegan diet. If you’re into this, please say hi! I will be writing an article on the changes I made to my diet, and I hope it will be helpful to you.

I am not a vegan but I do try to eat Healthy... looking forward to your future posts!

Hi chitty! Healthy eating is very important! Looking forward to sharing more posts!

Hi Carolyn, I'm glad you're here!

I know you have a lot of great things to say about healthy eating and I look forward to reading your upcoming articles.

Best wishes and have fun interacting on this exciting new social network!

Welcome. Yeah, food is important. I'm a dancer who used to weigh over 400lbs. Pay attention to your energy levels. When you feel lethargic (sluggish), it's a sure sign that you diet and/or rest is lacking. 1up-vote. Again, welcome.

Hello, yes that is so true! And, there are so many people that are on medication nowadays that probably don't need to be if they just changed their diet and got the proper rest. Looking forward to sharing more and learning from folks in this community!

You'll do just fine around here. Good luck. 1up-vote.

Glad to have you here, Carolyn. Looking forward to reading your posts on healthy diets. I could get a tip or two from it. My sugary diets are taking a toll on me.

Hello! Thank you for the welcome! I have cut sugar out of my diet and feel so much better! Sugar is so bad for us in many ways; some studies suggest sugar may fuel the growth of cancer. And, since there are claims that sugar beets may contain GMO we would all do best to stay away from as much sugar as possible!

Hey Carolyn, welcome to steemit.

Hello funny! Thank you for the welcome!

Welcome to Steemit! I am looking forward to your posts and am excited about all the new energy towards healthy vegan eating- I am considering doing a one year holistic natural chef program myself :-)

Hello! Wow, that sounds like a great challenge! I wish you the best and am excited to start sharing my adventure as I made the transition over to a Vegan plant based diet! Stay tuned!

I'm also vegan! Nice to meet you!

I've seen at least one other vegan and a lot of vegan friendly folks. I think we should have been writing #vegan and #veganintroduction in our post. I'll edit mine so it does appear in those to tags.

YEEESSSS! Love meeting other Vegans! Nice to meet you!

Hi Carolyn, glad to have you here!

It may be that your introductory post will get more eyes under the tag #introduceyourself. I think you can just edit your post and add that tag and it should show there as well.

Looking forward to your nutritious commentary! ;) Cheers!

Hello! Thank you so much for the information. I'll make that adjustment and I'm looking forward to sharing!
