"So what's yer plan, Wheels?"

I am seriously grooving on MyFitnessPal.com. So much that you'll assume this is a paid advertisement for them and, while I wish it was, it sho'nuff isn't.

For a week now, I've been tracking everything I put in my mouth. Literally, everything but my toothbrush and toothpaste.

So far, I'm learning:
I eat too much protein.
Man, that sodium can add up. Even if you don't eat a lot of salty foods or add it to your dishes.

In a week of tracking, I'm down 8 pounds. I'm not so confident to assume I will keep losing at that same pace, but what a great charge of inspiration at the onset.
