Every morning, but log it once a week. Seeing the number every day holds me more accountable. I can do too much damage in a week, and especially in a month, if I let weigh-ins get too infrequent. Not doing it daily may lead to me forgetting. Forgetting leads to other minor mistakes. Minor multiple mistakes leads to being…

https://www.fitbit.com/user/3CS7F9 When I began thinking about making dietary and activity changes towards better health and fitness, I figured I would eventually buy a Fitbit as one of the tools to help me along the way. I figured that instead of buying one immediately (and perhaps not using it, wasting money), I would…

Yes, absolutely. Think about it. It is an aerobic activity. You are in a near constant state of motion, especially when doing it as a job.

That is great. I love seeing the difference in your face. While my gut area may not change much with a lot of weight loss, my face does, and that always feels and looks good- like I am seeing "me".

I appreciate the pictures having been taken in with same pose. It helps to see the actual difference rather than perceived. Those side by side, same position pictures along with your words leave an impression that will stay with me for a long time.
