I didn't splurge
Oooh, I'm so proud, I just went grocery shopping, this time I made myself some lunch before I left because I knew I had some running around to do and would be awhile. Usually grocery shopping days are my hardest, I always buy the biggest quantity of something covered in chocolate or caramel or something of this manner.…

What's the most influential change you've made
since starting on MFP? I think I'd have to say for me it was ending the drinking of calories! I drink plain water about 95% of the time now, and it has really helped me to cut back on my calories!

I'M EATING MY LUNCH BEFORE 11

I was wondering how many of you use the extra calories earned by exercising. I have weight watchers drilled in my brain and the extra calories were not added in. Are those of you finding success with this site using the extra calories?
