I am a 25 year old Canadian living in Orange County, CA. I have struggled with weight all of my life. I was 180 in highschool, and ballooned to 380 by 19. After 2 years on Atkins my life changed considerably. I am now married and as usual struggling with weight due to over-eating. I recently chose Veganism as I do not enjoy eating animals and I am lactose intolerant.
I am an avid scuba diver, hiker and life-lover. I am learning more and more about Buddhism and it's bringing me closer to myself and my wife, and life.
