    Morning ladies well I failed last night, not massively but still!!

    I had 2 square of green & blacks! Ooops! It's my TOM and I just feel so drained! To be honest I'm quite proud that I only had 2 squares! haha!

    I had to look them up and they look scrumptious so I am impressed that you only had two, especially considering the time of the month. I'm not 100% sure that organic chocolate is considered "junk" snacking. :wink: You did great!

    What are green and blacks? Is it something with chocolate?

    At the time that did satisfy me, but I ended up having pizza for dinner, but here the serving sizes are a lot smaller than in the states, so I don't think I did as bad. I was also able to finish before 8pm, which is my weekend cutoff, so I might have done bad on the eating, but at least I was successful with my cutoff. :laugh: Tomorrow morning I have step and I think I will run along with later, I will workout on my Wii. Though, for the evening I already know is going to be late because I am going to a command function, that is serving Bahrainain food. I'm looking forward to that, but I have the slightest idea how I would log it. Hopefully it will not be too damaging.
    Enjoy your afternoon!

    Teetee, enjoy the Bahrainain food tonight! Let us know what you've had :wink:. I noticed you're really close to your goal. Well done! :fowerforyou:. You know, I sometimes feel that eating no later than my cut-off compensates for when I go a bit over the calories.

    Lulabelle, thank you so much for the confidence you put in me, and in us. It's helped me be good last night as well :drinker: I have to check what my two numbers are - wow, 5 and 12, yeay :drinker:!

    sparklepants, I'm voting as lulabelle for you counting last night, too. After all, you just tried them :wink:, not binged or anything.

    Dewdrop: Last night was great. I had a chicken warp, rice and chicken, naan, and some other things. I was really good about not eating too late, but then when we had coffee, I just had to have a cookie to go with it. So, I am pretty sure, that I blew my cut off, but for calorie intake, I have no idea how to count what I ate, but I know I worked out hard earlier and that I also ate real light throughout the day, so hopefully my evening was not so damaging. As for my goal, that is just the one I set for now, want to do mini-steps so they seem so easily achievable. I'm thinking that once I get to that, I might change it to 145, but everyone says that the last 10 are the hardest, so maybe I will leave it at 155. :laugh:

    teetee, I'd suggest you set it for 145, just so that you stay focused :wink:. You might just as well maintain, but that would be really good - other than saying "I'm at goal", relaxing and start gaining back.

    I almost shouted "hurray" last night as we started to wash the dishes after dinner: it was 9p.m. :happy:. So... 6 and 13 :drinker:.

    4/7 for the week. Bad "snow" snacking. But I'm determined for next week.

    We went out last night and I wanted something to chew on :smile:, so I got a cookie. It was already 9:15, but I only had about 1/3 of it, so I think I wasn't that bad, considering that I was still under my calories at the end of the day. So, unless someone protests to my to many exceptions, I'll keep on counting: 7 past week and 14 in a row.

    I'll try to stick to it this week, too :wink:.

    Dewdrop: I don't think 1/3 of a cookie is too bad. That's 2/3 you didn't eat.
    I did change my goal to 150, for now, I think that is where I want to be. But hopefully, I have no intentions to start to gain it back. My husband has gotten into the habit of working out also, so when I return home, I want to be able to go to the gym with him and also get my mom into the gym too. I worry about her health, but no one is there to push and motivate her. So, I will once I return home.

    Last night, was a good night for me, I have to say that I had to eat ice cream because I was so far under my calories, I just needed that extra 150 to put me over 1200. Really, I know that is not a good enough excuse, but it sounded good to me. There is only one serving left, so after it is gone, I won't be giving in to the ice cream anymore.
