  • Wow I basically immediately dropped out this time around, but I'm getting back on track! Couldn't find the older posts so I'm not sure of my exact first few weigh-ins. #1: 130 Final: 129.4 This is a bigger loss than it seems like because I fell off the wagon (not logging at all) and was up around 132~134 for a long time,…

  • Yeah, I lost 2.8lbs in the first 4 weeks, but then it took me 4 more weeks to lose 1 more pound, so who knows? I keep my diary goals at maintenance to have a more manageable calorie allotment (tried and failed miserably to do 1200 when I started. Every time I see the red, I get to kind of a "well, I've already ruined…

  • Have you been taking measurements? I don't feel like I look much different either, but breaking out the tape measure showed me an inch loss in the waist, and about 1.5 inches gone in my boobs (tmi, but now my back hurts and I need a new bra), and 1 in the hips (thank goodness!).

  • Yeah, I take a ton! I'm basically a carbatarian, so not much healthy eating going on here (but at least I've been eating less unhealthily since I started logging again?). My doctor (well, nurse practitioner) told me to take multivitamins and a vitamin D-3. I have a prescription iron supplement that I take inconsistently. I…

There is an app called ColorNote (I've got android, idk…
