Hello Gwen,

beautiful name!

You sound like a success story in the making to me. "I"m proud ta meetcha," as they say down yonder.

Welcome to our weird and wonderful world.

Hi Gwen, Welcome. I'm a newbie too. I'm doing a 3-5 day Meat & Egg Challenge to see how much I can lose. You're more than welcome to join in. The thread is at Countdowns, Buddies & Challenges. I've been spending time browsing and there's also an exercise challenge going on by T Man.

Hi Gwen, glad to meet you and glad you're still sane with 3 teens in the house. There's always a silver lining, eh?

I'll pop over to your journal as well.

Welcome to the forums and the TDC! I can't imagine having 3 teens in the house at the same time. You must be a saint!

Default May you never be bored or deprived

Best wishes as you start your journey. There is an old Chinese saying that goes something like this: May you never be bored.

You never will, if you do this Way of Eating properly; the possibilities are endless and unpredicatable. For example, it is possible to turn friom a sluggish couch potato (me!!) to someone who looks forward to exercise. Who would have thunk it??

It is possible to make gourmet appetizers, dinners and desserts to rival any found in fine restaurants. You never need feel deprived, what's that worth?

Will it take 6 months, 9 months, 2 years- it's up to you, your mileage will vary, but you have taken the all important first step. GOOD FOR YOU!!!
