    Struggles or successes of your week: I have been following through with one of my initial goals to plan/prep/cook all my meals ahead of time for breakfast, lunch, dinner and any snacks allotted for each day. So far I've stuck to this system and it is helping a lot with snacking and any "spontaneous eating". If it isn't planned, it isn't consumed.

    Goal weight: +\- 120 lbs is my overall goal which is around, from what I've heard, the average ideal weight for a woman. I am more concerned though with the inches around my tummy than my weight so that might change as I lose weight and start seeing a figure lol.

    Struggles or successes for the week: So many leftovers from Christmas and New Years Eve; stress eating from all the family gatherings because I have really bad social anxiety :(

    The silver lining on all this being I can wipe the slate clean and start afresh for 2015 :)

    Struggles or successes of your week: 5 days in and I have logged everyday and been close to my calorie goal Turned high calorie breakfast favorite (home fries, bacon, cheese, onion, sour cream) in to not-quite-as-high calorie breakfast (half the oil for potatoes, < half the cheese, no sour cream). Still good.

    I know I'm a bit late, just starting today but I want and NEED this!!! Have been falling a bit off track since before Christmas and I feel this will be good for me and hopefully give me motivation!! I'm glad we weigh in both the 29th and 31st, gives me those extra two days since I'm starting 4 days late :smile:
