    Great tips!

    I guess I'm not like most people in that I can judge my food portions pretty well, but definitely it has helped me a lot to have a standard of reference (as soon as someone told me a portion size is roughly equal to your own fist I really started to understand things!)

    Thanks for sharing and good luck on the rest of your journey!

    Wow well done on your loss so far and thanks for the seven tips. It's weird, isn't it? When you read tips like this it sounds like such common sense, but having struggled with my weight in the past I know that common sense goes out the window and you get impatient with how fast you are losing and setbacks lead to 'giving up'.

    I didn't have mfp back then though and I am really enjoying this site, now that I am using it properly.
