THE MOST AWESOME TOOL IMO....
Thanks so much for this post. It is great inspiration to see how well you have done, and are still doing after 5 years!
I am 17 months out and have been doing weel, but recently have been finding it more of a struggle. I have gained 5 pounds, which I know doesn't seem like much, but it brings up so much fear in me. I have really slacked off my exercise and have been eating way more food than normal. I did measure some of my food today because I felt like my quantities may be getting higher but it seemed ok. Have also been doing SOME tracking again, but not daily. This is a great tool to get back to, and I think the journaling will also be great.
Keep up with your successes and thanks again!

You have an awesome tracker Marina ... and have done so well CONGRATS! ...You may be experiencing normal bounce back but I don't blame you for getting back to journaling and measuring and keeping track of those five pounds ... five is easier to watch and control than 10 -15- 20 or more .... I believe in nipping it is the bud before it gets out of hand...
