Hi
 

Hey, I'm Zeda
I'm 27, 5ft 7, and have a 6 year old son. I have a lot of weight to lose. 100lbs would still make me 40lbs overweight. I've struggled with my weight all my life and had great success with the LA weightloss plan. I went from 270 to 188. I swore i'd never hit that 200 mark. Then my center closed, i went off to college, had a bad breakup, and when i tried transferring my plan to the one in my local city but when my center closed they lost my info. I was out 400 bucks!

blah blah blah few years passed i expanded to 240 then 270 then 290 and i will be damned if i ever reach 300. I had the LA purple plan booklet, googled the red plan and ended up here.

My whole diet thing is messed up, I recently found out that part of the reason i gain so much weight so fast is that i am gluten intolerant to add to my lactose intolerant. i have also decided to go lacto-ovlo (sp?) vegetarian. So when you take out the dairy i am pretty darn close to vegan and i have no clue what to eat on the plan. So if there are any vegans out there i'd love some recipes.

I guess that's it. I am gonna do a modified LA plan to fit within a 2000 calorie/day diet and work with the absence of meat. I dont want to really advertise my weightloss journey to my friends cause frankly i am embarassed that i gained so much weight back. I'd love to make a few friends here and journey along with them. Guess thats all :carrot:

Welcome! I'm not vegan, but I have seen some vegan recipes around. If you go to the splash page I'm sure you can find some -- I usually see them listed there. Hunt around a little bit. I've a feeling I've seen a support group for vegans who are dieting here.

I'm sorry that the weight loss center lost your info. That completely stinks!!

Good luck on your journey!

Thanks :-)

You are not alone! There are all kinds of people from different walks of life who are working one step at a time to make their lives healthier and to drop a few pounds in the process.

I, myself, am now taking off weight that I swore I'd never put back on.

You can do this. Look around. Participate. Best of wishes!
