Why does that feel like a win-win to you? Are walnuts a particular favorite, or some other reason? (I don't intend for these questions to be confrontational, I'd like to get a better sense of your perspective on this ).Rufus_519 wrote:If I can lose 2 lbs/week and still eat some walnuts, that's a win-win to me.

This group will have Friday check ins, where everyone can touch base. Weigh-ins are optional, and will not be tracked. Please feel free to share your non-scale victories (NSV) as well.

Greetings from Santa Rosa!
Thank you to everyone who has reached out asking about how the McDougall Team has been doing over the last couple of months. Like many of you, we’ve been finding our bearings in the midst of so much change. Our days have been filled with homeschooling, lots of cooking, puzzles/board games, reading, movies/TV shows, and walks around our neighborhoods.
As a team we have been coming together (remotely!) to figure out the best way to stay connected with you and serve this wonderful community going forward. We are so excited to share some of the ways we are transforming our business to reach and help more people.
New platforms for online learning and Telehealth: We are working on developing new platforms for both online learning and Telehealth to bring the McDougall experience into your home. This will allow so many more people access to our Medical Programs and Intensive Weekends, including lectures, cooking demonstrations, and more one-on-one health coaching - all in the comfort of your home!
Website updates: Our website is getting a makeover! Once complete, our website will be easier to navigate so that you can find all of our recipes and educational content faster and more efficiently. Not to mention our site will have a brand new look.
We’ll be making these changes over the coming weeks and months, and you’ll be the first to hear about additional updates.
In the meantime, we have a lot of digital content on our website for you. The Starch Solution and Dietary Therapy courses are available for free.
. . .
Wishing you continued health and safety,
The McDougall Team

I hope you both have a lovely birthday celebration today!
Mark Cooper wrote:Moonlight - Let me also acknowledge those significant accomplishments - those are some important behaviors you are turning into habits! Feeling good about your progress and proud of your efforts seems like a salient signal. I'm sure you will find that any investment in preparation almost always pays dividends. Keep on doing the best you can and aim for continued improvement on those remaining guidelines; the behaviors deliver the outcomes, so I expect ongoing diligent efforts will have a noticeable effect.

I was doubting whether I would even bother participating in the June weigh-ins because of my oh-so-slow losses. But your kind perspective on things has made me decide to keep posting.
Well said!moonlight wrote:I have had good compliance before. I'm confident it will happen again.
