Did you get enough to eat at your goal weight, or did your food allowance make you grumpy?
Did you have to readjust your goal weight to be happy? I hear about former models and slim people never feeling happy because they were hungry all the time, but I wonder if it's because they didn't burn off enough calories to eat more or if their muscle tone was too low (sorry, I hope that makes sense!). I see people on…

Write just 1 tip which triggered your weight loss.
