I'm excited to give this a try. I was sad to see I already went over my calories for the day and its only 2:40pm - I guess its a reality check I needed!

Good luck all.

    Learning and getting information. That is what this is all about.

    For the 1st week I didnt change a thing, just wrote down every morsel I ate. Even Gum!

    Then I inputted all that food, fat, sodium, sugar............WOW!! :noway:

    Take your time, enjoy the ride:drinker:
