When I first lost weight two years ago, you were a huge help to me, it was really discouraging to go looking for blogs and find people who cut everything out of their life to lose weight.

It's so true that you're only lying to yourself, and even when we don't track it on paper/app, our bodies are still tracking it!

Something about when we are tempted to do something (like take the heaping portion of noodles, for example), take a moment and think of the fives. What will the consequence of taking that action be in 5 minutes, 5 hours, 5 days, 5 months and 5 years. So, in this example, the consequences of taking a heaping portion is going to be small to Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00002534286151657352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904256286279591900.post-43423504015718011682015-05-27T22:23:48.539-04:002015-05-27T22:23:48.539-04:00Thank you for this!
