    I had a hard time last week with eating over my calorie goals, too. Just remember that you’re in a new week, and each day is a fresh start. We’re here for you to get through the rough times.

    This week's successes: Logging, Calorie Intake, Exercising on Switch Fit Band - I pretend the monsters are fat molecules and when I defeat them I picture the fat breaking up and going bye bye -- works for me.

    This month has been a blessing -- I feel better and stronger, my clothes fit better, I am more active and my attitude has changed from "No way, I can't" to "Maybe I can".
