Two laps around the sun that is! 730 consecutive days of tracking my diet with MFP and what a lifestyle change it has been. I see food now not simply for enjoyment (though I will never give up my small indulgences), but for the effect it will have on me. I know that I can have whatever I want, be it slices of greasy bacon or a hunk of cake. But I weigh my options now (both figuratively and literally)- do I want to "spend" 200 calories on that chocolate bar? Or instead, 80 calories on an apple that will leave me more satiated and is packed with vitamins and minerals? More often than not I make the latter choice now, and with genuine enjoyment in doing so. Apples are awesome!
I know calorie counting/tracking your intake isn't for everyone but CICO changed me for the better in ways beyond just weight management. Two thumbs up, and lbs of fat down!
