Hi....i am lauri....and I am a sugar addict

First time to mfp forums....starting back to a healthy lifestyle tomorrow and am going to using these forums to help motivate me. Had thought about joining WW online, but decided to put five dollars a week in an envelope (what it costs for WW), and setting a goal for myself. When I reach the goal I can spend the money on something I want....I will put that on the envelope also. For every pound I lose during my Monday weigh in I will add 1.00, and if I meet my daily exercise goals, 1.00. So I have the potential of 15.00 a week. Anyway...Hope to meet some fun, like minded people on these forums.

    Hi Lauri,

    I am a sugar addict as well. Been on here for 6 months now and so far, so good. This site has been amazingly helpful for me, the food diary mostly. I have done every fad diet known to man, so I basically ignore the forums regarding dieting advice and simply eat at a calorie deficit. Though I do confess to avoiding super sugary things, as they are a trigger for me to go insane.

    Your idea for putting money in an envelope is a good one, I may steal that. Happy logging to you. If you do it daily, you will absolutely be successful.
