    Becky - 4 days below 25%

    Again, I can't believe I'm 5 for 5! I struggled to meet 30% last month and so far I've been around 20% every day! Crazy! We'll see how the weekend goes... party tomorrow night...

    I barely made it. I had zero fat servings left but 7 calories, so I was afraid that was going to mess me up, but I did the calculation, and my fat servings equaled 24.9339759%. Can't get much closer than that! LOL

    So I failed quite badly on Saturday, I had a wedding and a 21st so was being offered finger food from 1:30pm to 11:00pm non-stop! Did my best but a girl's gotta eat something...managed to stay under maintenance level though so while I certainly am not going to lose from the day, hopefully there won't be a gain. But yeah, blew the fat % by a wide mile.

    Hopefully I can pull it back and even if I don't make all the days under 25%, I would still like to make it for most days :).

    I didn't make it on March 6th. My cousin had his Eagle Scout Court of Honor and all the the h'orderves. I ate healthy onces, but didn't realize how much fat ranch dressing had when I ate it until I got home. :tongue: I did have one small piece of cake. I was still under my calories, probably under 30% fat. :tongue:

    I know I've already messed up and skipped a few days of logging, but I'd rather keep counting than give it up completely!

    Good work everyone, this is hard! I definitely plan to keep updating here even though I'm not going to make it everyday...Trying to reinforce to myself that coming close to a goal is NOT THE SAME as failing completely, in fact, it's a whole lot better!

    Forgot to do yesterday. Went over again today because I needed the calories and ate peanuts. I figured the good fats would be okay today, especially after my butt kicking workout!

    I have all my food logged, and I'm going to go over my fat by 6 grams (but under total calories by 55), so I won't meet the challenge requirements for today. I'll still be under 30%, so I'm not sweating it. I'm taking a rest day anyway, and I feel poopy. I'm going to enjoy those 6 extra fat grams, damn it. :smile:

    Heidi - 8 days below 25%
    Kim - 7 days below 25%
    Jill - 9 days below 25%
    Becky - 7 days below 25%

    So the 3 days I haven't made it so far I've been under 30%. I'm doing much better than last month. YAY!

    Jill & Stephanie - You girls blow me away. I am struggling again! Yesterday I was at 27 and figured out if I ate like 3 apples or oranges I could probably get down to 25%, but it was 8:30PM and I wasn't even hungry so I said forget it. Ugh! Keep up the good work. I hope to add another notch to the belt tonight!
