    Keeping track of what I'm eating is the key. Now when I get cravings, I think about the calories I'd be consuming and it helps me resist. Not every time....but most of the time. I joined the week before Thanksgiving and have lost 7 lobs even through the holiday season! Woot! Woot!

    You're right, it takes work logging in every day, making sure you think about how much you're eating, a cup, half a cup, whatever. But for me, it's soooo worth it! Good luck, and don't give up!!!

    That's exactly how I described it to my friends! Instead of addicting to Facebook, I just log on here!
