Small NSV
I went to the doctor today and learned that my exercise-induced asthma is GONE!!! I was diagnosed with it when I first started putting on the weight a little over 15 years ago and now I can honestly say that I no longer have to carry around an inhalor everytime I go to workout, let alone walk around at the grocery store!

To much Water?
Okay, I cut out all other drinks and am drinking only water for the last 2 days. I average about 16 cups of water a day . The problem lies with the food now. All the water that I am drinking is gives me the feeling of being full all the time. I struggle just eating what I did today. I am only at about 495 calories today…

Frustrated...
I have lost 12 pounds so far. I eat right and exercise everyday for AT LEAST 30 minutes (strenously). I do not see the results though other than what the scale says! Did anyone notice their first 10 or 15 pounds? Or do I need to give it some more time? I know the question may sound silly. I also know that Rome wasn't built…
