My First Jing Capture
A year ago, I was twenty pounds lighter than I am now. I lived with my grandma over the summer if that explains anything. I finally mustered up the motivation to start counting calories and working out every day. I haven’t been doing too great, but at least I’m making myself aware of what I need to work on! For my first Jing image, I decided to make my “Calories Eaten” chart for the past week visible to everyone! Hold me accountable, guys! 
I had a rough weekend, as you can see, but I’m pretty good now. My goal is to not exceed 1535 calories per day. That’ll be great fun when I’m on vacation in San Francisco next week!

Emily– this is a great idea for a JIng capture! also a great way to keep yourself accountable on your mission to lose weight. I can relate–my daughter went to culinary school and returned home for a month during the holidays–all we did was eat, eat, eat! Delicious and wonderful, but it makes the jeans a bit tight come the new year. I have started working with a personal trainer and try to drink 100 ounces of water each day– a big tip she gave me wa that a lot of the time you are really just thirsty when you think you are hungry! Seems to help. My jeans fit better, and I have lost a couple pounds. I will keep working on it until summer.
Hope you had a wonderful time in San Fransisco–such a fabulous city. And don’t worry– you can get back on the diet track when you return!
That’s pretty cool. Showing this could be a great way to motivate you. I hope everything goes well! Keep up the good work.
Great idea Emily! I like how you set up your motivational page and I’m sure it took a lot of courage to then show it to the public. I hope you are able to stay on track and can reach your goal. Congratulations! I have a Grandma who is an amazing cook too, so I understand
