    I think this is a great topic! My best habits right now are that I only drink calorie-free beverages (unsweetened iced tea, water), unless its a cheat day, or I've exercised my butt off and can afford the calories in a beer. I also log EVERYTHING, EVERY day so that I can see exactly where I went wrong or can notice trends (like this week is a super processed-food heavy week since I'm house-sitting and not really cooking fresh foods/buying my usual groceries, but going with peanut butter sandwiches and frozen dinners for the most part). I have also found that setting a goal that includes a set workout plan, such as a 10K with an 8 week training plan works really well to keep me focused.
  • My best habits would be drinking plenty of water, and eating fresh veggies from the farmers market!

    Added lots of color to my diet (fruits & veggies).

    Stopped allowing myself to use emotions and feelings as an excuse to make poor food choices.

    Stopped looking at is a weight loss effort (been there, done that too many times) and started looking at it as a lifestyle change.

    Stopped obsessing about what "I can't" do and focusing more on what "I can" do.

    I'm logging everything, cut way back on booze, and am eating loads of healthy salads.

    This is such an inspiring thread - thank you!
