Only for those who haven't hit their goal.
List down your before and after either activities, food preference, beliefs, style, etc. Here's mine.

Before:
1. Strip off chicken skin
2. Avoid saturated fat.
3. Eat too much sugar(jelly bean, mallows, chocolates, etc)
4. Consume about 5 cups of rice everyday

After:
1. Eat anything including chicken skin, all types of saturated fat.
2. Minimize Carbs, I take it from Veggies most of the time.
3. Target Protein to at least 1g per pounds of lean mass, for me its 130g
4. Drink as much water as I could.

Result:
Better bowel moment, lose 13 pounds in the last 4 months. Mostly of these are diet/nutritional related as i was always active even before i join mfp.

    Before:

    Cardio only
    Macros were not important to me (Eating tons of veggies but not nearly enough protein)
    Had some weird, nearly orthorexic ideas about food that came from trying to synthesize tons of info over a few years time period
    I was drinking lots of alcohol

    After:

    I'm a weight lifter
    Protein range is between 100 - 150g per day
    No alcohol, lots of water, tea & coffee
    Intermittent Faster
    I take fish oil, vit D & a liquid multi

    Thanks. It was truly the key for me. I've recovered my life in doing so.
