    Oh sweet Leslee. Have a carrot stick and call it a night.:laugh:
    No seriously, maybe some fruit or crunchy veggies???
    Even if you go a little over, it's okay. I've done it MANY times and it didn't kill anything.
    47 lbs in under six months and I went over many a day.:happy:

    Well, if you're working out, then you have more than 1200 to eat because you have the added exercise calories.

    drink some water- usually a sign of hunger really means your body is thirsty

    True... I don't drink nearly as much water as I need to... i'm gonna try that! I wouldn't feel AS bad if I knew I worked out today.. but I went strong this week and then slacked off yesterday and today...took the kids to the beach today and fit the Beach Bum profile big time... didn't do a think! But hey..we all need a day like that once in a while..right? ( posted beach pics on the profile..the kiddies had so much fun!)

    I've gone to bed when I knew I wasn't going to be able to fight it... Man did I wake up hungry but hey, I could start over! LOL

    Really don't sweat it if you go over. As long as you come back to it you're not going to be knocked that far off track. Heck, you'd have to eat 3,500 calories to gain a pound ... so if you go over a little today and you weigh a little bit more in the morning just blame it on the extra bulk that's running through your system. You should be right back on track in a day or two.

    Running in the humidity apparently caused me to burn more. I think last night was the worst day of humidity we endured so far this year. It was MUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGY!!! I ate 1/2 cup of ice cream with M&M's (1/2 serving) on top...drank some water and went to bed. YUM!
