I went to CVS after work yesterday for a few items, and while I was there I stopped by the nutrition aisle and looked at the various snack and “energy” bars. I had resisted to this point trying one of the Atkins Advantage bars, simply because I have been eating as much real food as [...]

I never thought I would publicly post my body measurements on the Internet, but the change in my shape is so motivating that I feel others may benefit from it. If you don’t already measure your waist and hips, I encourage you to do so.
