20 - 30 pounds over weight!! So eye opening when you log your calories!

    Yup! If you aren't using a food scale yet, you're mind will be blown again!

    I felt the same way when I 1st started logging! I could never understand how I got so big, as I was never one to sit down and have huge meals. But I had the habit of mindlessly eating whatever was around me, which really added up. Once I realized what I was doing, it wasn't really that hard to change my eating habits.

    Wow it's crazy isn't it? It sure was eye opening for me years ago when I thought the lunch I was eating was totally healthy until a friend mention how bad it was for us. I googled it and OMG, I spit out what was left in my mouth, threw the rest in the trash and never looked back!
