Hello to my new LDL family My name is Michelle Garrison my husband Chris and I started on this new LDL journey today. Please keep us in your prayers. We are excited about this and Chris seems more determined than ever before about losing weight...I have kept off about 100lbs from Gastric Bypass surgery 7 years ago but it is those 50lbs or so that I have put back on that I want gone for good. My husband weighs 340lbs and is finally after years of talking about losing weight ready to take action. He is pretty hard headed so I am hoping that if I can help him hang in during the initial process we can do this. These boards are great I have been reading them for a week or more while we were waiting on our book to arrive. You all have already given me great encouragement without even knowing it.
God Bless you all and Thank you Roger for sharing this wonderful gift

Chris and Michelle Garrison
Arab,Al
Day 1 of our journey

Your husband is fortunate to have your encouragment. 
I was over 360 when I started in Nov and have now lost 92lb.  I love all the great food and the weight has fallen off over these months.  I have just started exercising in small amounts so it didn't come off by anything but changing my eating habits.
Remember to read the book more then once so you will understand it all.  It is so easy and so life changing.  I know you both will do great and will see the results you are looking for.

Michelle and Chris, this is like nothing else you've ever done.  You'll see that you'll find foods that you love and will enjoy.  It makes losing and sticking to the plan so easy, when you have no cravings and no deprivation! 

Congratulations for finding this way of eating!

Congratulations and Welcome....

You are going to love this WOE.  My biggest problem has been trying to make it harder than it is.  I simply love to eat and am doing plenty of that each day.

The threads on this website are great for any questions you might have and for encouragement.
