    Current weight: 242.6
    Total weight lost: 2.0
    This week's successes: Finding this site
    This week's challenges: have never worked out to lose weight (back issues)...have been successful in the past only by counting calories (lost 55 lbs from March 2012 thru September 2013)...therefore, my challenge this week is to strictly follow daily calorie and food content goals.

    Current weight: 179.4 lb
    Total weight lost: 23.7 lb
    This week's successes: Intermittent fasting has been going well, I thought I would be worse off
    This week's challenges: Craving takeout like nothing else in the world, and getting more active despite the cold.
    Tracking food means that nothing is "forbidden" but every choice is made with calculations.

    Love this! Counting instead of forbidding has kept me sane throughout this journey.

    I know you mean UNHEALTHY snacks. We all need snacks, I now consider fruit my “snack”of choice! Some may prefer rabbit food snacks (carrots, celery etc) changes come in many forms.
