Today is day one and I don't know what to expect.  Excited and fearful (what if I can't do it).  Realizing that is a poor attitude.  I am very interested in changing my eating and thus my nutritional habits.  Want so much to be healthy and to feel good.  Just do it.  It is something that I have to do for myself. And I have to stop procrastinating!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  NOW, the time is NOW.

I have tried everything.  Every over the counter pills and plan.  I've tried many, many online programs and spent, yes, thousands of dollars.  From the Beachbody programs and diets to the I bought the audio book, UM and have since read every one of the Dr Hyman's books and articles.  I've researched him online.  I've also read several other Dr's books, including the Perricone plan.  I have to say that of everything I've read, I found Dr Hyman's approach to be the most realistic, the most humanistic.    I've changed the way I cook and the way I look at

I'm really hoping that this will help me...I'm getting to the point where I feel it would be better to just be heavy and tired and slow and unathletic.  It's so discouraging to have spent 20+ years of your life trying to lose weight (especially when those close to you mention that you looked so much better when you were thin that one time).

 I'm hopeful this site will provide a good place to talk with others about our experiences and share what works.
