    Today was my day 1 (after yesterday's sushi binge), but I didn't do as well as I had planned. I was eating conference food all day, and they actually brought in gummy bears, licorice vines, chocolate bars, goldfish crackers, and cookies as our afternoon snack! WTH? I can't control myself around gummy bears. I ate a bunch of them. Then I had a hand full of goldfish too. Arg. I estimate about 300 junk food calories just from the snacks. Plus I nibbled on the chocolate cake they brought out for dessert after dinner. (Fish with mashed potatoes and edimame... I skipped the potatoes). Lunch was chicken breast and green beans (skipped the rice). Not a totally horrible day, but I'm not proud of the gummy bears.

    Man, I hate conference food. Bleck.

    Day 3, yeah! I have a good feeling about this :glasses: Feel like I kinda have the right attitude again. I wonder how much the fact that my scale broke on Sat and I did not yet manage to get a new one has to do with it :wink: .

    Good luck, everyone! :flowerforyou:

    So today is the end of day 2 but I am disappointed in myself. I drank too much tonight with my friends and came home and had a couple bits of this really good meat sauce my cousin made for me when I got home. I didn't binge tonight because I held it to two bites (soooo hungry!!) but disappointed just the same. :cry:

    Day 2, and no binging. I have 600 cals left today because of a really hard workout, and I don't think I can eat them! Opposite of binging... I'm all over the spectrum this week! Aw well.

    I'm back to Day One -- the last two days of our shoot were tough and then I hung out at my sister's after the airport and ate a bunch of her yummy leftovers. I'm taking responsibility for my actions -- busy days and free leftovers are NOT a reason to binge.

    I'm off to the gym now, and am hoping to go ten days and beyond...

    I'd love to join the challenge. It's really comforting to see there are others out there who don't just want to lose weight, but want to face the emotional challenges that come with it. Today's my day 1!

    Day 4 completed. I assume about 200 cals overboard does not mess up my commitment, right? I am on holiday, after all! :happy: (but we've got wireless in the room :bigsmile: ) Now I'm off for today's walking (or sightseeing hehe)
