I'm a 43 yr old SAHM of 5 & 9 yr olds. I am tired of feeling tired and being on meds. I want to look better, feel better, be a better example, be more active with my kids and enjoy life and do the things I feel my weight is keeping me from doing. My big picture goal is to lose 40-50 pounds, but trying not to look at the big picture and just concentrate on 5 pounds at a time.
I am 64 turning 65 in a May and retired (altho I still teach 3 mornings/week). I was vegetarian for 12 or so years before going vegan 2 1/2 years ago. I have read just about every book out there on plant-based eating and they were all motivational for me, well, maybe except for "Veganist" by Kathy Freston. Didn't agree with that one. My first book was China Study and then I mowed through all the others. Just can't read enough about it. It keeps be motivated to go the "whole foods" route.
50 something single mom working 3 jobs and getting ready to make some very big changes so I can live barefoot.
