Hello!

Options
Today is my first day on this journey, after watching a friend post about all of her success using this application via Facebook. I'm currently in my final semester of nursing school and I'm planning a wedding...and I'm a big stress-eater! So I hope that writing down everything I consume will help me to make better choices and realize the junk that I can sometimes put in my body.

So far today, I'm STARVING! lol I better run out and get some fruits and veggies!

    I started dieting at 226lbs, I dieted, hit a wall then got back on the wagin 2nd Jan, since then I have lost 16lbs, but 26 in total from my heaviest weight. I started with small simple changes like switch white bread for brown, whole milk to skimmed, coke for water, etc. since then it got easier, I didnt buy junk because if it wasnt in the house, I couldnt binge. I am now at a point where I can go and buy treats for my daughter and I wont touch them because I have altered my minset in such a way that it doesnt bother me. I dont deny myself things like crisps, but I am wiser and choose quavers at 88cal instead of walkers at 140cal. It will get easier, and if you slip, hey ho, just excercise the next day.

    This site makes it much easier to lose weight because you can actually how many calories you're putting in your body. At least for me, if I can see how many I have to left to eat, I won't go over. Good luck!
