You said something last night at group that made me think about something. You had talked about how you had gotten away from measuring your food and that when you started measuring again you found that you weren't eating enough. It really made me think because I also have gotten away from measuring. When I got home last night I hadn't eaten yet, so I made some tuna salad and got out the measuring cup and filled it to 3/4 of a cup. I too realized that I have not been eating enough and that could explain the scale slowing down sometimes or even worse, me not feeling the greatest. I will now be measuring again thanks to you!!

Hint…3/4 c.= 6 oz or 173 grams

Thanks Darla!!

You are ever so welcome, Sabrinna! But I have to give credit where credit is due, our dear Barb J. is the one who put that in my brain. We're now so AFRAID to over eat, that we probably make the mistake of not eating enough on many occasions! And if you're not fueling your bod, your bod will hold on to what it's got.... just in case. I know I still have a backwards mentality, thinking "if I feel good at 1/2 cup, then why eat 3/4?" It's a very difficult head game to overcome. I'm not there yet, but with you reinforcing the whole idea here, I will be using my measuring cups here at work! And THANK YOU, Sabrinna, for bringing our precious friend MJ to the meeting last night!!!

Imperfect does not = unsuccessful
