I'm new to journaling and food tracking. I've discovered that I love the data it gives me and the awareness that it brings. It's so much easier for me to catch those bs thoughts that lead me to overeat in the past. I can recognize the thoughts for what they are and choose to acknowledge, feel and let those go that do not serve me.

I had lost 50 lbs then I stalled. I started journaling as a way to see what I could level up. I've lost an additional 25 lbs by collecting this data. I cannot put a price on how valuable this has been for me. I'm working through the mental chatter that leads to the overeats and am able to deal with them before I hit the pantry now.
