  • Fantastic work! You've accomplished an amazing journey, and I'm inspired. Thank you for posting this.
  • I tossed the typical breakfast lunch dinner snack labels for "before 9, 9-noon, noon-3, 3-6, 6-9. after 9", and anything between 9pm and bedtime (whatever time that is) goes into the After 9p category. Since I'm often still at work after 9pm, and frequently finish at the gym after midnight, it's all about waking hours for…

  • I'm just starting my journey, and walking is still a chore, so thanks for the inspiration!
  • I avoid flying when I can, but I flew just last month at over 500. I did have to buy a second seat (first time ever, on a full Southwest flight) on one leg, but not on the return trip.

  • Well put!
  • Wow, what a great set of replies to wake up to! I thank you all for your encouragement and offers of friendship, and for the advice (I've changed the privacy setting on my food diary). Really. Thank you. My chief goal this week is to keep logging every day and establish that habit, so I'll see you here!
