Hi.
My name is Eloise.
I am a mommy to a wonderful boy.
I run in the sunshine of soCal.
I have been a vegetarian on and off this year but i'm sticking with it for good now.
*I do have a piece of fish once a week, if i feel up to it.*
I have already lost about 70 pounds.
I have 40-70 more pounds to go.

I'd love to make some friends on here.
Who wants to go through this wonderful lifestyle change alone?

    Wow! Congrats on the 70lbs! Is it because you became a vegetarian? I've been staying away from dairy products recently and I think my body digs that. Welcome to mfp =)
  • THANKS :)
    The latest twenty have dropped off after I made the switch.
    The first fifty was just from not continuing to binge or eat fast food or drink soda.

    Just sent a request!
    I was a vegetarian for about a year but had a hard time dealing with it in a college dining hall!
    Good luck =)

    Hi! I am also a runner. I was vegan for many years, then added dairy - vegetarian for about 15 years, and then I started eating meat again - long story. However, I have just read the book, Eat to Live, and I'm planning to go back to vegetarian eating - convincing my hubby is a bit of a challenge, but it's definitely the way I prefer to eat, and I KNOW it's healthier! Add me as a friend if you'd like.
