Hello all, just wanted to do a intro post. I just joined the group and started to us MFP more reguarly. My wife and I decided a few days ago to go Paleo and felt this group best lined up with our new dietary views.

    Hello there, I am new again to MFP. Trying to figure out how it may fit in with helping to motivate me again. When I am motivated, eating clean/Paleo or primal is what I prefer. Currently, motivation is the problem though....

    Hey everyone! I'm new as well. My family and I started to eat clean about a year ago, and I'm STILL learning. My favorite thing is to learn from others, and swap recipes:) Being in groups like this help keep me inspired!
  • Hey! I'm new too. I've started clean eating about eight months ago. I look forward to new ways to prepare the same healthy food. My recipes are simple & quick. I love my crockpot. Enjoy.
  • Good morning. I am attempting the eating clean (or close to it as possible). I do good for awhile then something happens.
  • good morning, i am new to the group but not to MFP (been using steadily for a year) but have not used any of the other features until now..

    Hi :)
    I'm new and wanting to re-educate myself on healthy clean eating :)
    I started uni last year and the diet was awful, i worked hard and started eating really clean and lost an amazing amount of weight and reached my target. I relaxed a little over the holidays and have gained a little back and am now determined to lsoe it and keep it off but mainly looking to improve my diet and healthy clean eating. Looking forward to see what everyone else is eating!

    I am new here. I currently have a highly processed diet, I am wanting to reduce my intake of those type foods but I do not even know where to start.

    Hi. I am Rosemary and I am looking for ways to help me shed pounds. I am not looking for a quick fix! I need to be healthy and want to cook most of my meals.

    Hello! I'm new as well. I'm not "new" to clean eating, but I really want to have that be the majority of our foods. Tough with a super picky husband, but I'm hoping to learn and find more ways. I'm a huge fan of the 100 days of real food website, and I'm looking forward to getting more information here!

    I have just started back to MFP, and recently started eating clean.
  • I am new to clean eating. Just trying to make a change in my life.
  • Hello All,
    I am new to this group as well. I have genetically high cholesterol so am trying to further change my lifestyle. Any advice is so welcome!

    I'm about six months new to clean eating. I lost weight from being 250 in 2010 but cholesterol and trys were still high. so I'm focusing on what is making my body make LDL. And I'm really trying to limit the acids in my diet to see if that will help. Someone told me and research proved it, that our bodies don't make "bad" cholesterol. LDL is used to repair our bodies and HDL is used to clear out the LDL. So, I'm trying to help my body by not eating things that would cause my body to need repairing.

    I'll post back later this month and show the 6 month progress.

    Hi I am new to the group. I have been using MFP for a while but am new to clean eating. I have slowly been making better health choices. I quit smoking in February, and have been working out regularly 5-6 days a week. I still have about 100 lbs to go and am looking forward to this life style change.
