Victoria – Sounds like you’re doing an awesome job! It’s really amazing the difference that can be made, just by making some simple adjustments to your diet, etc. Writing down everything that you eat is also a great idea – I’ve tried a similar approach with my money, writing down everything that I spend.

I use frozen dinners, but I use low-carb, low-calorie Weight Watchers Smart Ones meals.

I cut out the starches – no crackers, no potatoes, no rice, no pasta, no beans. I eat mostly meat, soy products, veggies, and dairy (mostly yogurt and cottage cheese). Very little fruit, but TONS of veggies. No sugar!

I *write down* everything I eat 6 days a week and make reasonable choices the other day.

I make sure to get in physical activity 6 days a week, even if it’s just some walking.

So far my acne has cleared up and I’ve lost 69 pounds.

Joanne -

When I was in high school my mother would always tell me about a story when she started drinking a lot of water and then everyone started telling her how clean her skin looked – I think that’s where I started my water habit.

I like how you put the first tip as water. Other than soymilk (milk when I’m at home and not at school), I mainly drink water. It helps my complexion and makes me feel less bloated on some days. So I’m always walking around with my SIGG waterbottle and just refill it whenever!
