Hi Gina.... I too am new and also a Gina who desperately needs to lose 50lbs. I can't believe I have let my weight get so out of hand. I am 45, married to a wonderful man and have 3 teenagers. I read Fat Fallacy and French Chic and it made so much sense to me. I have been doing this way of life for about 2 weeks and have lost 4 lbs. I know I can eat this way for the rest of my life and this has given me much peace. Now all I need is a little patience
Good Luck,
Gina
