I should probably try your up/down, high/low, whatever you call it technique!! Those are some impressive stats for May.
But I think you exercise a lot too? UGH I am so bad in that area recently. And it shows...

EmmaD This 5:2 diet seems to be working great for me. I did 4:3 last week; which I will never do again! It was too much; but scale dropped a lot...lol
I do exercise quite a bit, as of today I think I have done 2600 minutes (43 hrs) for the month.
