    Well, I guess it's all been portion control and cutting out soda....that's really all I've done. I started using smaller plates, and I don't eat any more than that at a meal. Mountain Dew was my big issue...anywhere from 3-6 cans a day! Now I only drink water, and occasionally a diet coke. I've just really tried to be aware of what I'm putting in my body. I used to eat without even realizing I was eating..but not any more! I swear, I never thought I could do this, but if I am even remotely successful, I know everyone else can do it too!!!!

    congratulations!

    It really is true about the whole eating thing. I didn't used to think I really ate that much but I probably was taking in over 2500 calories easily without major amounts of exercise. Now I can track everything and eating chocolate is more of a treat than something I take for granted!
