Hello! I am a 43 year old Mama of 7 year old twins! My parents visited a few weeks ago and introduced me to Doug's book. At first, I balked a bit- what with running kids around, plus my full time (and then some) IT job, I did not think I would have the time or mental energy to plan meals, pack my food, and such. I have been exhausted for years, and the thought of making effort to go through another diet plan just made me want to crawl off and take a nap
Anyways, after thinking about it a little more and deciding to start simple (no fancy cooking- at least not to start) I started last Tuesday.
This has been much easier than I thought! I am not starving on this plan, I feel a little less tired, and I peeked at the scale this am and saw I have lost 3.5 pounds!!! I still have a long ways to go (I am 5'0 and at 172.5) but this plan is NOT feeling diety at all to me!
My first big goal is to get out of plus sizes by Mid December (we are going to Uni Studios in Orlando then- I dont want to be too big to ride the rides!)
