Please friend request me! I'm 43, and would like to lose about 20-30 pounds, definitely need some accountability and I really like to help and encourage other people.

Trisharrell76 - Don't feel too bad about it - I messed up last night and binged on ice cream and apple crisp :( It's always late night, when I'm exhausted and stressed and make terrible decisions.

Track EVERYTHING that you eat, and look at how…

You can friend me, I like to read people's food diaries too :) Mine is open, I find it helpful to be accountable - I'm honest, even when I haven't been eating the ideal diet. Keeps me on track, for the most part. Also, I'm nosy and I like to see what other people eat daily :smiley:

Had a physical and all my blood work was in normal limits, and my cholesterol was better than it was when it was last checked. Also, I lost over 6 pounds of fat and gained over 4 pounds of muscle since I'd last checked my body composition

I think staying busy is key - I've been better...it's just once in a while at night I totally just go nuts and eat whatever and how much ever. Not just a snack but multiple snacks of whatever the worst food I have around :( I think completely avoiding the kitchen is a good idea - like if I start with a little snack, I'm…
