    Do you track your steps? I keep my iPhone on my person and track my steps daily. This helps me to see exactly how much I am moving around, a key to losing weight in my humble opinion.

    Thank you! I have an Apple Watch so I do track steps. I work out 5 x a week. Do you eat the calories burned? I have not been doing g that

    Hi Melissa,

    From my personal experience, legumes, beans lentils and chickpeas play a major role in my diet.
    They are very healthy and keep me full :smile:

    Good luck!
