    I'm also re-starting for maybe the 6th time over the last three years...
    I start off really well...usually with a holiday looming as my goal. I go on holiday for a week or two and undo a lot of my hard work then find it really hard to get back into the swing of things. I tend to drop off plan all summer whilst I'm hitting bbqs and pubs most weekends then the HORROR of my gain hits me around September when I get back on the band wagon for a few months until I can use Christmas as my excuse to binge again.

    this is a patter I've noticed over the last few years.

    This year has started much the same...im on plan and trying to be good as I have a swimsuit to be in soon. Only this year I have a few more incentives to get back to plan... a wedding and a late holiday in October. SO I'm hoping these will keep me on plan and break my habbit of yo-yo-ing. but we will see..


    Best of luck on your new venture though loves :)

    Hi All,
    I only joined this discussion yesterday and we have so many people joining in. This is great. We all know this isn't easy since we have done it before, but it will be great if we can commit to support each other everyday. Hearing about everyone's good and bad days will help.
    If you figure out a solution to a problem, please post. My issue is eating correctly when I get home. I am tired at the end of the work day and feel like the last thing I want to do is cook. I am trying some different things with my schedule and planning to avoid just eating whatever when I get home. Yesterday, I just had a quick snack and went to a zumba class. I was still hungry after snack, but knew that I could not jump around full of food.
    By the time I got home from class, I had a bit more energy and then cooked dinner. This worked well yesterday, so we will see what I can figure out today when I can't go to a class.

    Best wishes today!

    How is everyone today? Hope this Friday is great for you. I really need to organize this weekend to make sure I am set up for success for next week. This week has been good and do not want to lose momentum.
