Will you spend the rest of your life counting calories?
I've tried it all and I know at the end of the day the only things that work for me is keeping detailed food diaries. For a month I tried eyeballing and just eating things that were "good" for me and it was disastrous. For one, I am not a great eyeballer.

Does anyone have any advice on an extra push to get out of a rut? I lost about twenty pounds all together (it's been an up and down journey) but now I'm just stuck. I've vamped up my excercise and lowered my calories but I'm still at the same point on the scale! I've also thought about doing some kind of clense but I'm so…
