I weighed myself this morning and I was shocked by the number on the scale. I weigh myself daily to keep myself in check but only post my current weight on Monday on MFP. I started this site about three weeks ago and weighed 148. I was at 139.5 this morning!! I haven't been that weight in a year and it was only two days that I hit that number. I have struggled, since menopause, to get my weight down only to be able to *barely* maintain despite running and exercising!! I believe I am soon going to see numbers that I haven't seen in years! 
I owe it all to discovering this site! Nothing I was doing was working, this is!! :drinker:
Things I do:
I am brutally honest about what I eat, including portions
I am brutally honest about the exercising I do
Eat healthy even when I have extra calories
If I am hungry, I definately eat my exercise calories
Things I don't do:
Take credit for things I do in my daily life, like cleaning (I would if I did it for hours)
Don't eat when I'm not hungry, even when I have extra calories due to exercise
Sorry... just rambling now... I was just so excited, I thought I'd share!! :flowerforyou:
