    I went over almost 500 calories due to over indulgence in sweets. I worked out ahead of time and planned for it. I am a little disappointed in myself because my inhibitions were lowered due to comments about me needing to eat more and being too thin. I think I started to question myself. I had to remind myself that I am doing the right thing by working toward my weight loss and fitness goals. I am only 3 lbs from my weight loss goal and seeing improvements in my fitness almost weekly. Most of the people who commented on my weight have a distorted opinion of what is a healthy weight anyway. My husband was great in that he explained that he could see why the comments were made but that I looked great and should keep doing what I'm doing.

    BTW, this is my first post. Thanks for the opportunity to get this off my chest.

    I was all red yesterday. LOL! I didn't worry about it though. It was worth it and I had a nice time. My husband and I even went walking 2 miles together at the park around noon and had a wonderful time.

    I was over by almost 800. Drinking lots of water, hit the gym early this AM, and making a killer salad for lunch. No regrets. :)

    I was 364 under what I could have ate with all my exercise. I ate Carne Asada Street taco's that were delicious and a fruit frittata and bacon for breakfast. Had a serving of 1/2 the fat Dreyer's Salted Caramel Pretzel ice cream and a Macaroon from Trader Joe's to celebrate the 4th. I was stuffed and completely satisfied. I don't totally get why people think they have to go way off the charts to celebrate. I just skip one meal and have a bigger dinner on days I want to celebrate and I keep taking the weight off.

    I was way under. I indulged in friends and good times, not food.

    I am glad that this post is here, because I needed to confess to someone about how horribly I went over my calorie goal on the 4th. I was 998 calories over my goal on the 4th. I wanted to eat more but I was so stuffed that I couldn't fit anymore in!! Back on track today though!

    Went about 100 over because I had a couple beers. Screwed my weigh in day up though because of water weight I'm assuming. Weighed myself Weds and was 3.4lbs heavier at weigh in today.

    Not sure, I didn't log the evening meal we had at the party. But I made sure to exercise that morning to allow for it, and I ate a light lunch.

    And I had yummy food like deviled eggs, bbq chicken, coleslaw, squash. And a strawberry shortcake dessert.

    I woke up this morning weighing the same :) So all is good.

    I would think that was just water weight, right? More salt then normal and some booze thrown in maybe?
