Oh hey @Jeri Sos ! Thank you for stopping by today. It was so nice to meet you in real life. Here’s our picture for proof of life! Today was the Asheville Vegan Fest and we had a blast!

Yes, of course. Calories in versus calories out. If you are taking in more calories than you're burning, you're going to be gaining weight. If you're taking in fewer calories than you're burning, you're going to be losing weight. So yes, fats matter. How much do they matter? Do we need to avoid them at all costs? I would say no. For both men and women, fats are essential for hormone production, skin health, brain health, and things along those lines. So you do want to include dietary fats. For women, I don't really like to take them under 35 to 40 grams of fat a day. For men, more like 45 to 50 grams. Those are kind of my bottom-line numbers.

The last few years I had a day job where I worked Sundays & usually missed out on these events but am excited to get downtown this Sunday & bump elbows with all the vegan folks 🫶🏼 https://www.instagram.com/p/DY5SAffqYrE/?igsh=MThkeWY1MmM4MWlpMQ==

I made in a Instagram post that needs a bit of love please which is documenting my journey from 3 years ago moving here from Montréal Québec and now thriving in a rural place that is beautiful on the East Coast called Newfoundland and Labrador. Which is a bit underrated to be in that is really only known it’s colourful jellybean houses, puffins, icebergs, Irish sounding folk and it’s Irish/Newfoundland culture/music, sea (and all that comes with it) and nature. I have so much more yet to explore and I plan to document more of the uniqueness of this island from a vegan and a tourism lens as time goes on. Showing that you can be vegan anywhere even here and thrive! I may gripe at my options sometimes but I am truly blessed to be out here. Wanted to share it with you all. Give it a like, comment, and definitely share. ❤️ https://www.instagram.com/p/DZDQfjxFdDA/?igsh=eG0xNGR1dnUzNXBv

What brand do y’all think is the best vegan cheeze? My favs are Violife and Chao. I don’t really like Daiya but tastebuds vary.
