Hi Amanda! Hubby and I just started a plant-based diet as well — 4 weeks into and doing well and feeling great. I sent you a friend request!

Thanks for the invite as well and too see so many Indiana faces! I'm in the 5K walking "group" too now at my weight but ideally want to be in the "run" group a year from now! All these mudlathons, etc sound like so much fun and a great way to feel like a kid again! I've been on MFP in the past but never got "involved" in…

Just yesterday morning, I had on capri's and flip flops. Come last night, I had switched to my winter lace up shoes and a fleece jacket! Crazy!

I just ordered this and rec'd notice that it should be delivered by Saturday! I will be starting this on Monday!

I'll send you a friend request. Been back on MFP two weeks now and made the decision too that I had to get serious about this because of my "health" and not my "look". I have four kiddos too and I want to be around for them and be able to participate. I too have Walk Away the Pounds and just started working out at home! WE…

Hello everyone! I would love to be part of this group! I have quite a bit too lose — in the 100+ plus side of things. I am 43 and a happily married mom of 4 kiddos, all under the age of 10! Life keeps us very busy and very noisy! Back in February of 2012, I discussed having bariatric surgery with my doctor and we thought…

I did the Hungry for Change detox for 3 days simple because I ate like crap and wanted something to kick start me off on my diet. I did not do the juicing for breakfast as it calls for but I'm glad I did it. It might have been more mental than anything but I must say, I did feel better at the end. However, I did not buy…

I'm 43 and live in Indiana, where it is cold as well. Feel free to add me as a friend — I have a lot to lose and have struggled to lose or maintain most of my adult life. I know I will get there eventually and I won't let myself lose this battle. We can't afford a gym membership but I have a large living room with a large…

My hubby and I just started down this path last Friday and so only a little into a week in to a plant-based lifestyle. We too are following Engine 2 Diet and have watched Forks Over Knives, Hungry for Change, etc, and that's what made us decide to see how we can do on this. We are eliminating dairy, soda, meat and…

I just visited my doctor again this past week and she said it's time to begin the road to weight loss surgery and wants to see me once a month for the next six months so that we can have the official "history" for the insurance program as well as she wants to get me thinking "eating healthy" so that I'll succeed when I do…

Hi All — My name is Beth and I'm 42. I live in Noblesville and keep busy working full-time for an advertising agency in Indpls. I also am happily married and have four kiddos and a large dog that keep my quite busy as well! I'm starting over for the upteenth time in trying to lose weight but needing to lose for health…

This morning as I was listening to it (hate that you can't fast forward), she says to stay at each level until YOU are comfortable and feel as though you need the next challenge!

I would like to know too!

Same story here as well — I lost motivation and am back as of last week! I have to get this weight off just for simple health reasons! I'll friend you!

Count me in. This will be good motivation! I have a copy literally sitting on the shelf unused! My name is Beth. I'm 41. As of this morning, I weight 296 lbs. No measurements yet but something I need to do!..will try tonight before I start tomorrow. I'm married, work full-time and have 4 children, 5 if you count the dog. I…
