hi mfp-ers,

a few months ago, i thought i'd try not logging my food, just to see how i did. i did ok, so then i stopped weighing myself. i maintained my weight for awhile, but then the holidays came (insert ominous music). now i'm up about 5 pounds since i started the experiment. i'm ready to lose the 5 pounds again and lose even more!

seriously motivated to kick some butt,

    Welcome back Emtink!
    5lbs isn't awful to have not logged foods AND dealt with the holidays!
    Congrats, I'd say!

    welcome back, I have only been here almost 2 months, so you probably don't know me.
