I just wanted to share my story as a reminder: never have gummy candy. I made the mistake of mindlessly eating a Trolli gummi octopus on Thursday and I lived to regret it. I also (since it was mindless) forgot what I ate until the next day. It blocked

I don't know if this helps anyone, but I like looking at the numbers/graphs/etc. My highest weight on here is when I first went to the doctor to start my insurance's monitored weight loss program, around 250. I had surgery on 3/17/15. Today I'm in the
