Welcome back Rach! Did you REALLY have half a sandwich for dinner? To ME it looks like too little food, and I have some really unhealthy attitudes/habits towards food!

soImarriedAnerd · #4 March 3rd, 2008, 07:57 PM

Are you doing more the 6 small meals/snacks eating...if so great job-throw in a veggie tomorrow and one more glass of water!
And you have exercise but does that me you did? if so how long?
