Connection between mental health and certain foods.
I was speaking to my mother today and she commented on my sudden positivity and happiness. She and my father said they have both noticed an enormous change in my moods during the last couple of weeks (I joined MFP 3 weeks ago).

Anyone watch this? I love it, it's cheezy and dramatic but sexy as hell. I'm in a loving, monogamous heterosexual relationship but for one hour, once a week I live vicariously through these girls :love:

How often do you weigh yourself?
I weigh myself every day. First thing in the morning before my coffee. I find that it keeps me on track and aware of where I am in my own personal program. When I fall off and stop doing this I balloon back up. My mother never weighs herself but instead relies on how her clothes fit. I figure todays clothing is all full of…
