I just got my scale a few days ago, and I've had a couple of surprises. I was putting a lot more sugar in my coffee than I thought. But on the other side, I was eating half the cheese I thought. Yay! Oh and bread too, I was eating way less than I was recording, and my butter was just about right. I am still getting the…

Yes, I can see the change! Great job!

Good job! I like that you pre log your binge day, that is a great idea. Thanks for sharing!

I have been gradually reducing my sugar over a number of years. It began with reducing pre packaged foods, although my goal had zero to do with sugar! Next I cut way back on fast foods and eating out. This was helped because I moved somewhere that is very small town, only fast food is a dq. Then about two years ago I quit…

Hello! I'm sending you a friend request!

Star, I hear you about the weights putting you in bed for a week. It can be so frustrating! I have to be careful not to push too hard physically or it really sets me back, even…

I agree! I have replaced pop and juice with water, because I was getting so much sugar from just drinks every day. I still drink two cups of coffee with sugar most days and that is always my number one source of sugar in my diet. It took me a little bit to get used to drinking water, but it has made me feel better. For me,…

Hi Geo! It really has been a long process, but so worth it. I've learned a lot, but mostly how to listen to my body. It lets me know loud and clear if I eat something it doesn't like, lol. Yes you are worthy of the best quality foods! It is so fun trying new recipes and then tasting them, something about taking the time…
