Why did you decide to eat more plants?

I was diagnosed with epilepsy, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and pre-diabetic. My blood work was a hot mess! I was overweight, sluggish, and felt like shit! I was basically waiting for a heart attack.

How has eating more plants helped you?

I have lost 100 lbs, I have way more energy, my cholesterol is in a healthy range, I lowered my blood pressure meds to almost nothing, and I am no longer pre-diabetic. Eating a whole-food plant-based diet has saved my life!

How has our open-minded, LGBTQIA+ friendly community impacted your life?

I have followed Molly for a couple of years on various platforms. I am transgender, and my wife identifies as queer with they/ them pronouns. It is nice to see someone like us that is open, honest, and has no fucks to give. She made me feel like “if Molly can do this, then so can I!”

What is the most important thing you’d like to share with the Clean Food Dirty Girl community?

It takes all kinds of people to build a community. This is what’s best for us, it may not be best for someone else and that’s OK.

What do you love about yourself?

My eyes and my sense of humor.
