Hi all!!

I started my healthy food plan back on April 4th as a part of a work contest. It quickly became more than that as myself, my wife and my daughter all under went a total mind change about the way we eat. I've lost 50 lbs as of this morning, going from 224 lbs down to 174 lbs. my wife and daughter have both lost 35 and 36 lbs. Im so proud of them for their loss in weight and happy for myself. Im 42 y/o and I've not been this thin since 1989. Just thought I would share. :-) Oh and btw we will never go back to eating like we used to. My high blood pressure as well as my diabetes have both tamed down. As of now I have been of my meds for 3 weeks and the results are great!! Closely monitoring glucose and blood pressure to make sure it's good, but so far I'm pleased. We will never go back like we were....never!

Shane

    I LOVE that you did it as a family. I just read how this generations children will be the first who won't live longer than their parents due to childhood obesity. Way to rock it guys.

    Hi Shane,

    I'm proud of you for reaching and exceeding your goals.
    Now, will you help me?
    I know what to do, but I'm being lax on my execution.
    Tips, suggestions, encouragement welcomed here!

    Way to go, Shane!
