    Day 2, Valentine's Day no less, was a success! I am 51 calories under my 1,200 limit (including my 2-oh God I need them today-beers)! I hope everyone else is finding success as well! We can do this!

    Congratulations to all that managed to pull it off on Valentine's Day! I promise you if a hadn't started this challenge I would have gone over. I sipped on one 4oz glass of wine for an hour. That is nearly impossible for a good Irish girl!


    I have 388 calories left over! I spent the entire day cleaning house and never sitting down. I moved my desk chair out of the office so when I worked on the computer and at my desk I had to stand. They say instead of laying, sit....sitting, stand....standing walk....walking, run.

    5 more days to go for me. Feel free to start any day. If you go over. Forgive yourself. Start over. We are in this for life.

    How did today go for you? :wink:

    didn't go over on calories but was over on carbs by -24. :( i am eating 1540 calories and feel so discouraged that it is so hard to stay under my calories. it seems like other people eating alot less calories and don't have a hard time staying under their goals. feeling discouraged!! :(

    Please don't be discouraged. Perhaps you just need to tweak something! I tend to try to plan out my day, in terms of food, the night before. Obviously, this does not always work, but it helps me to see the calories of the food and their effect prior to eating them. Good luck! We are all here for you!

    Made it yesterday. It was a real struggle though. Onward to see how I do today. So far so good. Happy V Day all. i have to watch that Choc.:flowerforyou:
    Stayed within goal today. Yay for me and all others who made it through all the candy and choc today. Tomorrow will be telling for me. Wednesday is always a hard day for me for some reason. Luck to all for the rest of the week.:drinker:

    How did today go for you? :wink:

    Whew, I thought you would ban me from the challenge!
    I ate just about all of my 1200 calorie burn so it was a wash. Great job to everyone who succeeded today!
