  • I weigh myself in pjs in the am after going to the bathroom and I weigh myself in pjs before going to bed. I like to see the comparison with the am and pm #s.

  • Sometime it will be a struggle, and it is okay to struggle. What is not okay is giving up! Just always try your best and know you CAN do it even through the struggles! One thing I do that makes it easier for me is eat about the same thing everyday. It takes the guess work out of it. Sure there are days where I am over in…
