if i eat junk food, and i stay within my calories, i'll still lose weight, right?
for an example, i just ate cream cheese and ritz crackers. not the best food choice, i know but as long as i stay within my caloric allowance, i'm ok? what if i'm using my exorcise calories for this?

    Yep (you've got to stay within fat, sugar and the other stuff as well). That's what I like about doing it this way, you can make a mistake here and there and make up for it later in the day. The Redemption Diet!

    I think you're okay. I haven't cut anything out of my diet completly, and i have lost a lot of weight and am still losing. I do exercise a lot, though. You just have to be sensible about it. It's all about portion control. Don't eat a whole batch of brownies (well not too often, anyway :wink: ), and make sure you are eating lots of other healthy foods as well to balance out your day. A little bad here and there shouldn't hurt you too much. Well, it doesn't for me, anyway. Hang in there! It will start to come off.
