I just read in Jillian Michaels book, "Making the Cut" that we should drink 8 oz of extra water for every caffeinated beverage that we consume. (I drink 4 cups of coffee every morning-it's a vice that I wasn't willing to give up, but as…

BMI-in my weight range!!!
This time last year my BMI was 29.9 - borderline obese. One more pound and I would have been obese and that motivated me into making a lifestyle change. After losing 30 pounds I was 25.3 and since joining MFP I am now 24.7 and in my weight range!
