My first Scale Victory (as opposed to the NSV!) has been checked off!

I started in MFP in early Nov 2011 and I aimed to lose 8kg (about 17.5 lb) by my birthday. Well, Saturday weigh-in was today and my birthday is tomorrow. I win!

I'm so confident that this is going to all just fall into place, thanks to this amazing tool, that I'm not even embarrassed about what I look like or what I weigh any more, because I know it's all changing.

Yay for one goal down and for the challenges ahead!

    Yep, I track every day that is humanly possible. I cook a lot and have made some changes to the way I prepare food. I don't deny myself anything, but I do look at it like a budget, so if I want to spend calories on treats, I have to earn them first!

    This has been a real shift in mindset and an eye-opening lifestyle change for me. I'm so evangelical about it I'm dragging all my health-conscious real-life friends onto MFP, because it makes me so happy!
