    This is my day 2 and I have not binged. :happy: I am soooo proud of myself. This has been a struggle for me since I joined in June. But I am taking baby steps. :smile:

    I am giving it another shot. Tomorrow will be day 1.
    I have to do this. My binges have gotten fewer and less severe but they are still impeding my weight loss and it is frustrating. I would like to go on vacation at the end of October and be able to control myself around all the tempations.

    OMG. Last night was bad. Really, really bad. We had a BBQ at my house, my husband smoked babyback ribs and we made the general BBQ fare... cole slaw, beans, corn bread, garlic bread, roasted veges.... I totally pigged out. This was the worst binge I've had in over a month. I had 3 martinis, one beer, and my fair share of all of the food mentioned above. I logged my cals for the day and I ended up eating about twice as many of my recomended calorie intake. :sick: This fell into the "gain a pound a week if I ate like this every day" category.

    Yarg!!! :mad: :cry: :sad:

    I am most definitely in!!! Okay, so today can't really count as day one, but from now on I will not binge, I promise that to all of you. BInging has always been a problem of mine, and I think that by taking it one day at a time it will help me.

    I'm back...after a week or two away from checking in to MFP.

    Today is my Day One, also coinciding with Day One of a two-week shoot. My goal is to keep making the right decisions every day so that I can get to Day 14 and go home happy.

    Good luck, everyone!

    I went to someones house for dinner, and managed to stay in line. I'm repenting for yesturday, trying to end my day with an extra 500 cal deficit...

    WL, welcome back! You should start another accountability partner thread, that was fun!

    Yes, today went well:smile: Burned lots of calories at dance tonight! (Never sure exactly how many though.... I wish knew how strenuous "dancing, general" is considered under the exercises choices.) Sometimes I'm sweating for two hours straight and other times I may only sweat for like 20 min. during the entire 2 1/2 hour practice. Anyone have an idea of how to get a more accurate number of calories burned besides wearing one of those HRM type things? I'm so broke right now to buy something like that.....:frown:

    Day 2 for me -- no struggles today and I just got off the elliptical and am heading to bed...

    Sarakenna...YES...I'm thinking of starting another accountability thread! Twelve days to go on this shoot -- I'm going to get my goals in order.

    Good luck everyone!

    Today is Day 3 for me -- still got my toughest stretch ahead -- dinner!

    I've planned what I'm going to eat and I'm going to stick to it. If not, I'll be answering to this thread later on tonight. Here's to a successful evening.

    :tongue:
