But the bullet

[Dodlink]

Thanks to @ moreless I finally bit the bullet and got on the scales. Surprisingly I'm not depressed or angry - in fact feel strangely neutral - but just aware there is a v long journey ahead. But if I've managed three weeks of careful eating there is no reason why I shouldn't be able to eventually complete 30 or even the 300 it will probably take.

So thank you for the encouragement to get on those scales.

I couldn't be happier for you, Dodlink, the thought was obviously worse than the deed and the only way to go now, is down! Well done you!

So glad that you did .Same for me -(long long way to go) but at least you can now celebrate next week properly .For you will lose .No doubt.

Thank you.

If you log your food diary on MyFitnessPal, it tells you how many days you've logged in, Dodlink . I couldn't believe it when MFP recently informed me that I have now logged in for 200 days! I felt a tremendous sense of achievement and I know I have come a long way regarding learning new eating habits. You can do this! 👍

That takes a lot of persistence! I quit after two weeks. I occasionally use the app. I need to use it much more though, especially now I'm on a new diet plan.
