FINALLY learned my lesson!
I'd have thought I would have learned my lesson after royally pigging out on Thanksgiving day and feeling sooo sick afterwards, that I wouldn't do THAT again. BUT, NOPE, I didn't!

To eat or not to eat...
I have a question. :flowerforyou: The past few days I know I've went over my calories. Not by a lot, but by enough to make me feel bad about it.

For those of you who have lost 80+ pounds...
I have been struggling with my weight for a very long time, with very little follow through.

I will lose 30 pounds, put back on 15 of those, then lose another couple, gain a couple, then forget that I was ever…
