"I immediately thought of you going to a reunion 20 years down the road.  Lookin' all hot and healthy while they're all overweight, sweaty, stinky and wrinkly ;)  They won't be laughing then! "

"Uggghhhh!  My father was dating a registered dietician a while ago and she was all up in arms about me being vegan.  Didn't think it was healthy.  Meanwhile she, too, drank diet coke which apparently was ineffective(shock!!)…"

"There is also a behavioral (learned) component to sight so it would make sense why some people experience vision change and some people don't.  A lot of people have bad "seeing" habits such as looking at something the exact same…"

Profile Information

Our community would be delighted to know you better. Please tell us more about yourself and what brought you to 30BaD. Detailed responses will only be accepted (feel free to reapply with more detail if at first not approved as a member). We suggest you pick a name other than your own if you want to maintain anonymity.
I am a 30 year old wife and mother of 2. I currently work as dining services supervisor at a local university, personal chef for my own company, and VP product development for a new company working on opening a restaurant! I am also an avid volunteer for numerous organizations, some being the hospital, a local cat shelter as well as my church.

I have always had the understanding food directly impacts ones state of being, from the inside out. Before finding this group I was health concious and did my best as a regular joe shmoe carnivore. I knew there was still a big piece missing! I knew my body wasn't at its optimum potential! Then I came across 30BAD, on facebook I think. It was like a light bulb went off =)

I have started to transition to a predominantly HCRV lifestyle. I am looking forward to learning more and sharing this experience with like minded indivuals.
What is your gender? PLEASE NOTE: To enhance the community experience, profile pics of yourself are *REQUIRED* to gain membership. Membership will be declined otherwise.

Please tell us about your dietary inclinations:
