Talking 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

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!

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!
