  • Non-scale victory :-D
  • I don't eat dinner after 7pm, but if I go to the gym and am feeling hungry after 9, I stick with fruits/vegetables. Nothing heavy or full of fats. If you're feeling empty and hungry after 7, don't starve yourself (that's just worse off for binging at midnight!), so try for something light.
  • They showed up for me, and you look incredible! What a change, good for you!!
  • I use their Balsamic Vinaigrette. It's delicious! Perfect for a lunch salad.
  • Ya, I wish I had taken one. I just didn't WANT to admit and see what I looked like and how . Now I realize that was a mistake. Oh well, shoulda, coulda, woulda.
  • I have a few goals. Some with dates, others without. The goals I have with a date (for example, be in the 150's by June) works as a motivator for me to push myself.

  • I believe my treadmill before MFP, only because the treadmill KNOWS exactly what you were doing (incline, speed, distance, etc). and MFP does not. It does not calculate cals burned at a higher incline rate. And if your treadmill asks for a weight, it more accurately measures cals burned.
  • Slim in 6 is a good one! Kind of long compared to JM, and i found it easier, but you get results quickly.
