    I can be doing everything right all day and then binge if I'm up too late. "Just for Today" I will get out of range of the kitchen at 10:00 P.M. or shortly after and forget about food.

    Carol - this is the same problem I have. I do so good all day, only to give in and eat too much in the evenings.

    Same problem here! Eat reasonable all day, work out at the gym, then just too much at night. Do i go to bed at 8pm then! No! Im going to watch the Superbowl now & enjoy. Tomorrow is a new day and a new month.

    Hi Joan, yes I am in this month too. Thank you for all your encouraging words and for doing this with me. My goal this month is to lose 5 lbs, get serious about strength training. Need to lift 2-3 times per week. We can do this!!!

    Just for today...
    1.) Be thankful today was better than last 2 days
    2.) Come up with a work out schedule for the week so I am prepared & committed :)

    Wow I wanted to stay within 200 calories of my goal but wound up with 300 calories... Could be worse. I see lots of you have the same problem as me. I do good all day but in the evening after dinner I eat too much! Hummm, for tomorrow my "just for today" commitment will be to eat nothing (not even drinking wine) after dinner!!!

    Thank you so much Joan. This was a big help for me in January and I know everyone here will keep me going in February. Just for today (tonight really) I will listen to you all and not get an evening snack. I'm pretty sure I'm just thirsty and I only think I should eat.

    Day is almost over and just saw this but will post what my goals were: just for today-- make it to 5 mins jogging on mini tramp at one time (from 4 two days ago). Made it!
    Spend time playing in snow with my family-had snowball fight this afternoon.
    Hit my step goal of 10300. (Not yet)
    Stay under my calorie goal (looking great and even have room for a nice snack yet).
    See you all tomorrow!

    I just came across this and am so glad. I am going to try AGAIN to get my act together and lose weight. I need some accountability, maybe this will help me stay motiviated. I need to lose 36 pounds. I need to exercise and I need to stay positive about the goal. I AM IN>
    goal today is a 3 mile walk and to record my food.
    Thanks for starting this.
