Hello!

I'm not new here, but I've been known to glean from these boards from time to time. It's been a very long time since my first post here.

I've been and on again/off again McDougaller since Nov. 2002. Cheese was my biggest downfall. I'm happy to say that this year is the first time ever giving up cheese. The weight is suddenly coming off! I'm thrilled!!!

We went on vacation earlier this summer and I fell into my old way of eating, plus we were eating out a lot. I had planned for healthy eating on the trip but things didn't work out.

I'm ready to get back to healthy eating because I'm feeling lousy! I like the way I feel when I'm eating well and exercising. I think this September challenge is exactly what I need to get back into focus. So, as of right now, I'm committing myself to the McDougall WOE. You can count me in!

I weighed myself last week so I should be able to participate this week. We'll see....my numbers may not cooperate with me since I've not been eating right.

Lost a few pounds in July then skipped August. I am back. I have trouble with salad dressing ideas and moist toppings for potatoes. Down 3 puunds from last week so on my way.

Hello everyone -
I hope I'm not too late to join this group! I've been a fan of Dr. McDougall since I purchased one of his books in the early 90's. Recently read Starch Solutions and MWL. I need to lose about 40 lbs. so I appreciate having the support from a group like this. I'm new to posting anything online, other than FB, so forgive me if I make posting errors.

Hi guys! I am excited to get going and join this group for the first time! I'm not too sure how it (the group) works, do we just report our weight loss once a week or is there anything else I am missing?

I am a senior this year in Human Nutrition and Dietetics, crazy! My DREAM is to be a plant based dietitian but I am an on-again-off-again plant based eater, I'm currently off and need this to help me get back on track. I have a HARD time losing weight, not an excuse but I have hypothyroidism and find it so difficult to shed the weight. I am going to give this my best shot because I need my energy back and my sore feet and joints to leave me alone!

Wishing everyone success!

Brand new today! I have been a junk food vegan for two years. I am ready to get on track. Hopefully this is the support I need!

I have read the China Study, Forks Over Knives, and many McDougall books. I have been following the McDougall Maximum Weight Loss plan for 5 days and decided to join this group for support. I am doing well so far and look forward to visiting with people who are working toward a healthier lifestyle. I am 70 years old and have my doctor's blessing.

Hi everyone! I'm new to the forums here, but not to the McDougall lifestyle...or even the vegan life. I just welcomed my second son to this side about 12 days ago. When I discovered I was pregnant, I had only just discovered and applied Dr. McDougall's principles to my eating style. I stayed on the plan during my whole pregnancy...it's easy when eating this way makes you feel so great...there's also McDougall's revenge...but I digress! Anyway, while I only gained 12 lbs during my pregnancy (some of which I think was actually weight displacement...offset by my growing bambino), I hadn't gotten down very much before I conceived. So, here I am. I had a GREAT pregnancy and am ready to work and get back down. I am nursing, so I need to be sure I get the calories in, also. Count me in! Thank you!

Hello, I would like to join in the weigh in group for September. I have been following McDougall's Starch Solution for a month. I lost six pounds. I want to stick with it and know that having the weigh in will keep me 'on the straight and narrow." I look forward to reading the posts of others in the group, as well.

Same weight for me. Hopefully next week I'll get on the right track!
