A Short Summary of My iTrackBites Journey
I have been a long time ❤️ fangirl of iTrackBites. It has been my app of choice since I started this winding Wellness Adventure years ago. My journey has been long and complicated but the dedication, encouragement and continued support of the iTrackBites family has been instrumental in my success and I look forward to being part of it for many years to come.
Before coming over to iTrackBites full time, I was a dog trainer for 25yrs. (🐶 companion, therapy, 🐕 dog sport and service dogs)
Hands down, my favorite feature is the ability to edit nutritional information. 🔢 iTrackBites is the only app, to my knowledge, to allow for that so when a manufacturer changes a product or a restaurant updates an item, you don’t have to recreate a whole new listing and you can still be 100% accurate in your tracking.

How to Reward Yourself (without food)
Rewarding yourself can drive results, it’s as simple as that! In terms of weight loss – it is so important on this journey to have things not related to food to reward ourselves with (non-food rewards – NFR) and acknowledge those things not related to the scale and our weight specifically (non-scale victory – NSV).
5 Weight Loss Misconceptions

Conquering Weight Loss with Medical Complications
Losing weight is hard. We know this. But losing weight with underlying and sometimes undiagnosed medical conditions can be a nightmare. You feel like you’re alone in the “turtle club”. Like you’ll never lose the weight. I know… I am the poster child for medical complications.
6 Week Weight Loss Challenge – Week 4
This week is all about slowing down your eating. Chances are you’re not even aware of this particularly bad habit.

So I’ll be doing this right alongside you this week.
6 Week Weight Loss Challenge – Week 1
As you have probably heard us mention here, this is the PRIME quitting time. What better way to combat that, than entering a six-week challenge? For the next 6 Friday’s, I’ll be posting healthy habits leading you to greater weight-loss. No crazy diets, purges, or planks. Just tips and tricks to get better use out of this season!
Which Plan is the Best Plan?
My perspective is this… the best plan is the one that is going to help you be successful based on how you are realistically going to eat on it. Do you struggle with what to eat and making good food choices or controlling how much you eat even if healthy foods? Do you need a plan that easily supports eating out and prepared foods or do you cook mostly from home? Are sweets and snacking a problem?
How to Become a Weight Loss Weekend Warrior
Many of us agree that weekends are more difficult yet we repeat the same cycle over and over when it comes. We know the weekend is coming, we know we struggle with it for a variety of reasons but nothing is going to change this until we do. If the struggle is real – identify why and change it. Saturday and Sunday are just other days – same number of hours, they happen every week – they are not something you can’t conquer!
Is Your Scale Lying
You’ve worked hard all week, stuck to your plan, drank your water, moved your body and are feeling confident come weigh in day. You step on the scale…. 😯😫😡…. WHAT?!? That can’t be right!
