    in Did you have any surprises about how much you were eating when you got a food scale? Comment by vallenato1978 July 2018
  • I wouldn't do it myself....but I do have a "cheat meal" once a week or 2. I don't really even call it a cheat meal, I just am less strict about fat and carbs for that one meal. Anytime I'm jonesing for a good cheeseburger or some pizza i fit it into that meal 😁

  • Well, I never used to 😁 Last spring I left town for about 10 days and I did some running and swimming which felt great. I'm about to head out again and purposefully chose a hotel with a decent gym so I can keep up the workouts.

  • Hello! Just turned 40 this year. So far I've lost 34 pounds, gone down 2 sizes and feel great. I am already 9 pounds below my initial goal weight....but for me it's more important how I look and feel. My new goals are to bring my fat % down, and then add some weight back in lean muscle. The cutting for me was easy, let's…
