    So, I didn’t do all that bad on this challenge. I made sure to stay away from the TV as much as possible (weekends included). And guess what…. I barely did any night time snacking (my favorite is sitting in front of the TV and eat dry, sugary cereals…Ahhhh). The only time I found myself sitting and eating was Sunday night while I was watching Dexter. However, I made sure I didn’t eat  Gonna try to keep this up longer, it will have nothing but positive side effects on me.
    Hope everyone else did well !!!

    I am soooooooooo in!!! The last month I have struggle with eating, and when I do eat I am junking (grabbing quick on the go). My goal for the next week is to get back to cooking and preparing ahead of time instead of grabbing the quick on the go easy stuff!

    My first post too. This is my first-time dieting and have to lose 25 lbs! My goal is to actually stick with this site for one week and track my food and exercise. I've been wanting to lose weight for the past two years but haven't been able to stick with anything. I'm hoping this site will help me out!!!

    One week on.... success ....... have given up buying packet of 2 white bread processed-cheese sandwiches at work every day !

    Now make up at home, and take in one just sandwich of wholemeal bread (instead of spongey white bread) , with tomato puree not margerine, and half-fat Edam instead of the processed rubbery "cheese" !!

    It much more filling (so eat less generally) and tasty, less calories, and takes just a few minutes to make.

    My next mini-goal is to give up packets of crisps - of which we have an infinite variety of flavours, textures and shapes here in the UK. Our vending machine at work is full of them and must eat two packets a day. They really are addictive but I know they are bad and unhealthy and are at least 200 calories a bag I reckon.

    All the best to everyone else.



    That is just GREAT!!!! i love the way you found healthy substitutes.
    i really admire people how have a healthy mindset about food,like "EAT WELL ,DON'T STARVE"
    very proud of you, and i would try that sandwich for work ...
    i hope you do as good in your next mini goal..
    remember...there is no going back :wink:

    the goal i set for myself for this week was going to bed in the PM! between 10-12 o'clock. I tend to go to bed way too late / early in the AM. Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday I succeeded. This second half of the week I will too. Then down the road I'll try to make 10pm (latest) my fixed bed time. Baby steps :)

    I am in and mine will be snacking randomly, instead I will stick to my diary instead of altering it to accommodate snacking...I run a daycare and seem to snack a tad everytime the kids eat a meal or have a snack...a few crackers, few fries, chicken nuggets.....bites of stuff and not cuz I am hungry but because I make extra thinking they will eat it and I hate waste...so yup done with it and will welcome waste and stick to my original diary:)
