Focus only on your next meal in front of you. That is what helps me the most.

Embrace the hunger. Your reward will be on the scale. I have been perfect so far and am down 15 lbs this week. I am in shock. Even at the hardest moment it is so manageable. I eat at 12 and at 5 pm. I think I will start weighing once a week from now on so I see the number drop even bigger. Let’s all do this.…[Read more]
