    Be patient and give your self a break. When many of us got started, we tried to take on a completely new diet and heavy exercise routine all at once. But then, eat one meal that isn't on the plan or miss a workout and the guilt kicks in and you get a case of the F**k-its. Complex habits take a while to learn. If you miss a day in the gym, it is ok. It will be there tomorrow. Get weak and ate a slice of pizza on a Wednesday afternoon? It doesn't mean you have to wait until the following Monday to eat a healthy meal.

    And tell us your thoughts and issues on the message boards. We are here to be supportive.
