The 5 week goal at the bottom of daily diary
I am wondering if anyone has kept track of the bottom of the diary where it tells you 'in 5 weeks you'll weigh this if each day stays the same.' i know from day to day can be different, but what if it were the same. has anyone else proven the 5 week goal?

What to drink
I am having trouble with drinking the right things. I don't like regular milk, so i switched to Silk Almond milk. I am not a big water drinker.

nutella or natural peanut butter
I still crave the popular PB & J sandwich. I have searched the database for the 'best' peanut butter. I am not happy with the amount of fat, but i realize there really is no way around it. I also looked up Nutella. It seems that i would be saving on the fat content, but doubling my calories. Which is the lesser of two…

Question about coffee
I am a coffee drinker in the morning. my 'toppings' of choice are sugar and fat free flavored coffee creamer. In my quest to eat better and lose weight, i have started eliminating the sugar from the coffee. it has only been a week and i don't miss the sugar. My question is, will I notice a difference in my weight loss, or…

meal ideas
I have become fond of all the Birds Eye Steamfresh vegetables and other varieties. Does anyone else on these boards eat the whole bag as their meal? is this a bad thing to get used to?
