  • I track, but I don't count. Last time I vacationed I was still using a paper journal for food, so I carefully tracked everything I ate and drank, but I didn't pay much attention to the totals.

  • I guess I'm the anomaly in that I've been doing better on the new system than the old. Joined in 2005 and lasted about six months on it before it petered out eventually, don't even remember why.

I'm down about 40lbs (18kg) and currently swimming in my clothes, but I don't want to do a major wardrobe shop for another 10lbs or so. Currently surviving with belts for the pants…
  • Of all the threads to jump in on I pick this one! Paper novel collection just logged 1200, and the ebook collection sits somewhere in the 3500 range. Nearly all of it is fantasy or science fiction of various types with the exception of the "Bang the monster" subgenre (Laurell, Stephanie, I'm looking at you :neutral_face: )…
