I ordered a case of mini-moos and bought the pre-portioned Wholly Guacamole and Sabra Hummus because it turns out I HAVE NO SENSE OF PROPORTION! Yikes!!!

    Oh I know! I find pasta really hard to measure. What I think is a serving is probably at least two!

    Scales are great! So helpful in making it real.

    A good word of advice I've had to accept, it was hard to do--- but yes I do weigh myself now about once a week.
    Seems it's important to face the scale head on :)

    I weigh often. I know most ppl say you shouldnt but it helps keep me on check.

    It's that good old "nudge" that comes from being accountable --- are you weighing almost every day?
