Got to meet Austin Aries today and got a free signed copy of his book cause card machine didn't work. Genuinely nice guy and came away from his talk with some good advice.

He was mostly there to talk about the Vegan\dieting lifestyle and being healthy. Not my thing, but made it seem interesting and healthier than I live now ha.

Said how he goes to Big Lots to get a lot of stuff because it is usually cheaper, like nuts.

Fruit smoothies help mask the greens kids don't like. Adding plant protein powder and fruits to kale shakes.

If wanting to start going with out meat, start small. "meatless mondays"

Buy foods with labels you know what's in them. Less ingredients the better.

Find healthy foods you like and try to find new ways to incorporate it into your diet. experiment with flavors.

Said he started by buying Morningstar farm products then realized their ingredient list was ridculous.

Ethiopian food is basically vegan and tastes good.

The benefit to your self by eating healthy out weighs the benefit of a few bucks saved because cheaper products have cheaper and less healthy ingredients.

Of course the kids just wanted to ask questions tons of questions about Wrestling.

Mentioned his greatest /memorable moment was returning to TNA and taking championship and being in ROH.

He addressed bullying and was super patient and nice with an annoying disrespectful kid that even I felt like elbow dropping.
