Hello all,
I'm a 36 y/o who lost 50 pounds on WW, kept it off for years, and then went through an amazingly stressful few years and put it back with reinforcements. I have 70 pounds to lose and it is hard to start all over again. I went back to WW but felt the leader was talking to the group on the level of a preschool teacher (and I have a hard time with them providing recipes that call for really processed foods and lots of artificial sweeteners).
I studied online at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and completed their health coach program...so I am a certified health coach, but who will take me seriously if I can't lose my own weight? I'm doing my best to get my calories from whole, unprocessed foods - lots of fresh fruits and veggies. I'm also gluten free, which limits some choices.
Please friend me; I'm hoping that having a community of support will keep me logging in and staying on track!

Hello and welcome! I've lost 6 pounds since the beginning of the year and am slowly working on my goal of being 129 pounds! I also try to eat whole foods but also less meat. Good luck on your journey!0
