No Meat For You!!! My Plant-Based Diet Experiment

A couple months ago my wife and I watched Forks Over Knives on Netflix. I was warned beforehand that if I wanted to keep going out for dinner that I should not watch it, but after awhile we eventually did. I have to say that watching the movie does make you want to throw all …

Independence Sprint Triathlon 2012
