Someone please tell me how do you get the thing on the weight tracker to move. I want to show my little 3 lbs lost.

Thank you Carols!
If you want click on my myspace page below and go to my blog area on there and read "My Story". It will tell you everything. Also, I posted a long story of my progress on my 1 year anniversary back in October. That link is
here.
Most of my get up and go came from the fact that I felt amazing, my energy was virtually boundless and I knew that I was helping to fight the diabetes, heart disease and obesity that runs in my family. Prayer and my faith in God play a huge role in my success. Without that wisdom, I would be no further along than I was when I used to "d-d-d-diet".
My question to you is when you were hungry at 10:14 PM, what did you eat the rest of the day to sustain you. On a scale of 1 to 10 what was your actual hunger. 1 being weak and shaky and 10 being full like after Thanksgiving. If you felt like a 5 or above, that is the feeling your body has when fat burning is taking place. If you are eating at least 1200 calories a day and not exceeding say 1600 in a full day with 3 meals and 2 snacks and drinking your water like you should be, you should be fine. Also, you need to be eating plenty of whole grains, fruits, vegetables, 2-3 servings of low fat dairy and 6 oz of good protein. Lean meats, fish, beans, nuts, etc... If you are incorporating all of those things into your eating plan, you can't go wrong. Fiber allows you to eat less and be satisfied. I eat between 35 and 45 grams of fiber a day. Make sure you are getting everything your body needs .
Thanks again for your kind words.
