Lurker turned newbie trying to stay on track! hello all!

HI guys!
I have been lurking here for years, i love this place..on and off i've tried mcdougall..
I guess i never joined as i felt a bit left out being in Australia, but I know that's silly I can find the same things here and there

I tried the McDougall two years ago and lost about 8 pounds in two months or less it was great, this time i have about 20 pounds to loose (hard for me to conver kilo's to pounds for you guys!) but i've put on too much weight for my smal frame 5'1 and i feel sluggish and horrible

Anyway I'm looking forward to being an active member, i have to thank you all in advance for having such a lovely and friendly forum! there's a great vibe around here.

As i work full time i find McDougalling hard but I bought a 'crock-pot' or slow cooker as we call it and I"m looking forward to doing some recipes.

I have the McDougall max weightloss plan cookbook and recently got the new McDougall Cookbook (love Amazon for shipping to Oz! it is impossible to find McDougall stuff around here!)

Happy to share any recipes from there or requests.

I'm going to try to start this week, i'm very determined. Just hard as my bf, although vegan and very healthy loves sweets and good food.. but he's very supportive.

love to all,

Nicky
