  • Hi Everyone

    I'm a newb. My name is Holly and I live in Southern California. 48 year old single mom of a fantastic 15 year old son.

    I can't believe how fat I am after just not caring for the past 5 years. It's to the point where my knees, ankles, and feet are giving way! My last blood test showed obesity-related problems that I never had before: pre-diabetes blood sugar, high bad cholesterol...ridiculous. So it's past the point of just not having any clothes; it's kind of a life or death situation!!

    I'm glad to have stumbled upon your forum. From reading the posts, it appears to be a terrific group of folks. I'll be cheering on your successes - they're so inspiring!

    I have the book and started induction today. Chicken breasts in the oven. So far, so good!
