    This is easier than I was expecting! LOL. I think it is because I burn a ton of calories, so by the time I fill those calories up - it's with things like whey protein or other healthy things, I don't know. lol. On a rest day, it won't work as well - or on a day that my family decides to have pizza. lol.

    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

    Kim - 3 day below 25%
    Jill - 5 days below 25%
    Becky - 5 days below 25%

    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!
