Putting Myself Out There

Hi everybody!!
I've been on mfp since January-ish. Prior to mfp, I've had 4 children. My oldest is 6 and my youngest is 9 months. I'm well-educated and plan to practice medicine in the future. I have a masters degree now, am going back for nursing, and then medical school sometime in the next decade. I've got a PLAN. I've got about 50 pounds to go. None of us are perfect though and the major thing I have struggled with over the last 12 years (minus the three years I was pregnant) is alcoholism. I'm getting the help I need now. I'm eating a 80% vegan diet on a good day - ice cream and non-soy lattes sneak up on me every once in awhile. I'm looking for people similar to myself, who have been where I've been, or who are working towards the same lifestyle.
Thanks for reading!
