I'm in the process of doing something similar with my family and your post was simply inspirational. I'm a stickler with my kids on high nutrition eating (not as much with myself) and my 3 year old loves fruits and veggies...people look at us like we're crazy when we go out to eat b/c she eats what we eat while the rest of the kids around are eating fried junk food. It can be done and I wish more people knew that and didn't buy into the concept of "kid food" versus healthy food. We've come a long way, but I am currently trying to lose 40 pounds of ill-gotten baby weight and I had a hard day today...your blog post was very timely. :) I don't usually post on blogs, but thank you for your candidness in sharing your journey!

My weight chart looks a lot like yours... Wow. I've read Eat to Live but haven't made the jump... too many excuses. But my knees (not so much my back) are so pissed with me that I have to do something soon... Thanks for the inspiration! Congrats. My weight chart looks a lot like yours… Wow.

I am not 100% animal-free, but pretty dang close. I do allow for a little flexibility. That's just how I have to roll :) Thanks, Jennifer. I am not 100% animal-free, but pretty dang close.

It's like electricity in my veins. Kick the caffeine habit and wake up energized. And then I go back to sandwiches. I do love me some turkey sandwiches. But I'll be keeping with regular juice fasts. I love those too. Congrats on making yourself younger inside and out. I’ve watched your movies and started regularly doing juice fasts. It’s like electricity in my veins.

We did a vegan challenge at my home, and my husband is still fully involved. I have added back a small amount of animal protein. Most important is that you feel great and make the decision that is best for yourself and your family. And you're doing it! Good luck. Good for you, Susan!

Sounds like you're on the right track. We went vegan last June. It's been great. My husband has lost 60+ pounds, me... not so much. Ha. One thing I wanted to recommend was to do your research on soy products. They are unavoidable, no doubt, but I try to avoid as much as I can. For instance, we use Almond milk for our cereal. Soy acts as an estrogen in our bodies, and we don't need more estrogen. At least I don't. I am not an expert, but since I'm infertile, estrogen is something I am intimately familiar with, and I like to courteously warn/educate people about the effects. Keep up the good work! Good for you!
