I am starting tomorrow! My husband has been dabbling in McDougall for a couple of years now, and I had an epiphany a couple of weeks ago that this is what I wanted. The house is clear of all non MWL stuff (I think), and I am very much ready. Just thought I'd say hello.

I am no stranger to plant-based diets and this is very much how I want to be in the world (+thinner! :D ). I have somewhere around 150 lbs to lose, ideally (ouch, "saying" that "out loud" is scary).

Ok, that's it for tonight. I will occasionally appear here, probably.

Goodnight!

Welcome to the boards. At the top of this forum is a "sticky" thread with all the guidelines of MWL if you need them. We also in this forum have a weekly weigh in thread. Please feel free to join us on Fridays and weigh in. I tally up the groups total losses and post on Saturday mornings. Heres the link if you want. viewtopic.php?f=11&t=28015

Welcome again. Keep up to date on your progress. :cool:

Welcome Katey!

A year ago I had 150 pounds to lose too. Now I am almost half way to my goal and I am very happy and optimistic. I feel so much better in just about every way. I just came off of a three month plateau where I was essentially eating too much food, even though it was mostly MWL. I started logging and tracking my calories (and exercising) and I am back in the groove for now.

We can do this together!

Lori Lynn

Thanks, Lori! Great job on the losing and on not giving up and finding a solution to your plateau.
