    I see no results on the scale I think, but I feel tons better and even tough I am on BFL lite (so 80% of the plan is still good for me) I am at least making much better fooid choices, more concious food choices and I am exercising again.
  • Rabbit: Feeling better about the food choices is a really important aspect of this.
