  • My first post :)

    I find that if I can log onto Facebook every night... I can log onto MFP and record all my meals. When (if) I see that big red line on the bottom, it motivates me to get on the elliptical for as long as it takes to make that line green.

    During the day, I find myself reading a lot of nutrition labels and planning my meals ahead of time; I find that if I eat something that is well-above my recommended meal allotment for the day, it makes me feel guilty. It is especially helpful at lunch, because then I feel like if I eat the unhealthy thing, I'll be eating a small/crappy meal for dinner. That usually convinces me to settle for something healthier.

    I asked my wife to get rid of soda from the house. I found that if soda is available, I drink it. No soda, no problem.

    I hope this helps! GOOD LUCK!

    You can only be dedicated to something you truly believe in/want.
