    1) Measuring/weighing portions and reading labels semi-obsessively.
    2) Walking/jogging (C25K and just plain old walking around the beautiful lake near my house!), and yoga.
    3) MFP.
    4) My daughter--I want to stay healthy for her sake as much as my own!
    5) My rising energy levels as I lose the weight and exercise more! Feeling great makes me want to KEEP feeling great.
