  • Melissa - you forgot to post your times...
  • Way to go sweetie!! I am proud of you!! This will REALLY help!
  • Looks good so far, great you are posting the journal~~~it will help you.

    Phyllis
  • You are doing great!
  • Mel - I think you are doing great too - a suggestion for you might be to choose a protein snack in the afternoon. Your body processes that more efficiently - eat your sugars in the mornings... this one little thing may be just what you need to push you past a bump in the road...

    Just a suggestion...
  • Thanks a bunch. You guys are wonderful.
  • Come on Melissa, keep it up!! You can keep this going!
  • Melissa Melissa Melissa, dont' make get that whip out now missy! I know you ate today!
  • Bring it on, cause I like getting whipped. You are so funny. I am sorry, I thought I was just doing it for the day. I guess I can post it. I really need to because I still haven't found a place to post my food and weight loss. I will start it tomorrow. I might post what I have eaten today, if I have time.
