You can already see such a difference in your face! Great work!

Thanks to everyone who commented and added me! I'm so excited to have so many friends to support and be supported by!

If you're at 1200, make sure you eat your exercise calories. I have found that high-protein snacks/meal help me stay full, longer. Lots and lots of vegetables and water, too.

You look great and I love the pattern on your bikini!

You can totally see a difference, especially in your waist! Great work!

Have you purchased new (smaller) clothes recently? I find that every time I buy new clothes, I start to feel fat again, because I just recognize that the clothes aren't loose... but they're smaller, so that makes no sense.

I think it's worth mentioning that over here in Europe, serving sizes are NOT labeled on packaging except in about 10% of the cases (and these are usually more "fitness" type items such as healthy cereals, yogurts, etc.). Rather, the nutrition facts are given in 100 g or 100 ml increments. For some items, 100g is a huge…

If you have a "normal-sized" coffee cup (not espresso, not huge, just normal) then this is usually about the same as what we Americans call "one cup." Or this is handy:…

I weigh/measure most of my food. Or, I have done in the past. (For example, I eat my cereal out of the same [cheap plastic] bowl every time, and I put a tiny mark on the inside where one serving should go to. If it's a gram or two off, I don't care.) That said, if I put a piece of lettuce on my sandwich, or whatever, I…
