    First 20 lbs using MFP/calorie counting? Still working on it 18 months later. But I've had a couple falls off the logging truck since Dec 2015, all captured on my profile for posterity/the reminder this time around.

    Taking a slightly more militant approach this time around. If including macros and not letting foul ups slide (instead, being accountable to make up the overages) doesn't work, I'm not sure what I will do next to be completely honest.

    I topped out at 335lbs at one point, so when I decided to get back on the wagon for the five millionth time, honestly, I probably dropped 20lbs in the first 3 weeks.

    When I was trying to get under 200 my pace was around 2lbs a week.

    I have lost 15 pounds in 37 days and I am beyond thrilled. I am still guessing a lot so need to purchase a scale.
