    Hi,

    I would not worry too much about going over your calories as it happens to everyone. All you need to do is to pick yourself up, dust yourself off and go RIGHT...Tomorrow is another day and I am determined to conquer this. The last few pounds are always the hardest to get rid of. They will drop off with hard work and determination. We are all here to help you along and inspire you.

    Feel free to add me if you so wish

    Its ok to splurge a little every once in a while, this by no means makes you to be a failure!! Dont be so hard on yourself, today is new day!!! :flowerforyou:

    Come on! Don't give up so easily, like you said you only have 2 pounds to go. We all falter occasionally, what makes you strong is picking yourself up and getting back on the wagon not just giving up at the first sign of difficulty! It is upsetting when you go over, just log and move on.

    I feel like a total failure. I think i may just give up. I have had so much success overall but i just can't do it anymore. I had a M&M Halloween pack. I was doing so good!!! I avoided candy for like 14 months i think. I just feel like i should quit. I was unable to resist and for the first time i went over my 1200 calorie goal. I look at myself and i see a weakling. Someone that has no self-control anymore. Someone that will never make my goal weight. I only had 2 pounds to go but now who knows. After my failure today i just don't think i will ever make it. Not anymore. I just wish i had more self-control.

    I see all these guys that are big like me staying within their goals each day and now i feel like an outsider. Seeing that number be red really hurts at my core. I was hoping i would be strong enough to do this but know i just don't know. Most days i don't even know what to eat to get to my 1200 calorie limit but today i was over by 36. I am such a complete failure.

    :cry:

    Hmmmmm, I sense a little sarcasm.
    Yep just quit because you obviously have bigger problems then losing 2 more pounds.
    For those of you that took this seriously, WOW! You apparently need some positive friends.

    I'm sorry I wasted my time reading this thread.

    OP, if you're not trolling us, please seriously consider professional help. If the number 36 is enough to scare you that much, you have bigger problems than weight loss.

    On a serious note, do some JUMPING JACKS if you "binge" on A SNACK SIZE bag of M&Ms. Boom, your 36 calories are gone. Jeez.

    What are you talking about? You are a champ! You have maintained no candy for 14 months, you are a true winner!! We all have a few weak days. Now that we have that behind us. You keep going, you only have two pounds to go! You have lost over 30lbs you keep going. You should be so proud of yourself!!! Now today do an extra 15 minutes of exercise and you will feel better about your choices. No time to quit now you are a true sucess!!!!!!!

    This thread is a comedy goldmine. I laughed all the way through the OP but the replies from the people who only read that, didn't realize it is a joke post then obviously skipped the other posts and are still giving heartfelt advice and encouragement 4 pages later are even more hilarious. Well played, OP.

    Please don't be so hard on yourself. So you had some candy; if you enjoyed it, don't beat yourself up for it, just say, ok I had that, it tasted good but I'm ready to move on. Today's a new day; get back in the groove and keep going. You're within sight of your ultimate goal - go for it and LIKE yourself for who you are! You're a successful person who is making a difference in their health and well-being.

    When you give up, you just hurt yourself and no one else. Please don't.

    you ate a whole bag of MM's and you were only 36 calories over your goal for the day? Ummm is that all you ate?

    You don't know what to eat to get to 1200? I have 1200 for dinner sometimes. How about a steak and some roasted potatoes...

    two things here..

    1. This is a BS troll thread
    2. you have an eating disorder and should seek help...

    thats all I got...

    Agreed. Total BS. "OH no I have to stop now! I went 56 cals over!!!" Stop. You can run around in circles for like 5 minutes & burn 56 cals. smh.

    and an M&M candy pack? Come on... I have a cheat meal 1-2 times a week. You shouldn't be that strict. This is why diets don't work. You need to have a permanent lifestyle change and indulge every now and again. My cheat once a week is a burger and fries and I have abs!

    Losing weight is not about self control. It is about picking yourself up and moving forward every time you have a perceived failure!
