Hi, nice to meet you. I'm Cathy and I am also new to MFP. I am on a serious weight loss journey that I am just re-commencing. I had lost a lot of weight, but sadly l found it again. I can do it, just need some support this time and it seems like I have come to the right place. Happy New Year!

Hello. I've 83.4lbs to loose. I'd like to remove the chemicals from my life, I thinks it's going to be quite the challange ....

Good morning ladies; I'm Betty, soon to be 57. I bounced around in MFP last year and am back to try to remove the barrel I carry around my torso. I use this app to track calories as tracking what goes into my mouth is the only way for me to lose weight. The older I get, the more I realize that healthy eating is important so this is my plan. I will work at reducing carbs and fat and increasing fruits and vegetables. Setting achievable goals and working to reach them is also in my plan. I look forward to chatting with each of you and help where I can.

Hi, My name is Tyshieha Keitt and I am new to the entire clean eating world. I basically have been eating clean for the last 2 months but I have been doing smoothie challenges and also eating more home cooked foods. I have been doing well. In the last 2 months I have lost a total of 31 lbs. I am proud of myself but I am in search of a program that I can live with. One that I am restricted on what I can eat but not so restricted that I can't eat anything. So I began to research the clean eating life style. Well I have gotten rid of sugar almost completely. I only eat unprocessed honey, agave, and maple syrup and I understand that I on the plan. The only thing I am not to sure of is eating the whole rice and whole bread since I have stopped eating bread and pasta my weight has been coming off but I eat plenty of vegetables to make up for the lack of carbs and I also eat good carbs like sweet potato and squash. So I think I am doing pretty good with that. I also do not eat red meat. I only eat fish and chicken right now. This has whats been working for me not to mention the gym.

My biggest problem is portion control and I am actually working on that.

Well this group I think may help me understand clean eating a little more and how to stay on this life style. I also may have questions from time to time and I want help staying on task.

My ideal weight is 125 so I have less then 75 lbs left to go.

Good morning, new here. I am 64 yrs. Young. Care for 5 grandchildren daily. Start my day with yoga 7 days a week. Haven't eaten red meat in 37 yrs. However, I love to bake and prefer carbs. Soo, have been reading alot about clean eating since last year, and adopting it more and more, this looks like a good place for inspiration. Thank you.
