Note: This is not a Level-36 Meanie Post for which I should be pelted with cold sardines. Please to take note of my tongue, which is planted firmly in my cheek.

Day 1: THIS IS THE BEST DAY EVER!! I'm gonna make it happen this time!!! Vacation is in 7 weeks and I want to look hot and amaze everyone. I've got this!! YAY!!

Day 2: Friend me for motivation!!! I'd love to have more grandmas that are 5'4" and in their 20s that can do this with me. Do you have a mole on your left hand too?? Let's do this everyone!

Day 3: Who wants to do some Jillian Michaels with me?!?! I saw a friend on Instagram mention it and she looks amazing.

Day 4: I think I lost two pounds SUCCESS STORY PARTY!

Day 5: I'm super cranky but I can't eat my 1200 calories anymore, not even in cake, because sugar.

Days 6-10: HALP, IT'S A PLATEAU!!!!!! I've been sticking with this program for a week and only lost two pounds.

Day 11: Lost half a pound guise, so good to break that plateau!

Day 12: I hate Jillian Michaels. No workout today. Felt bad because no workout, binged on two apples. Guilt consumes me. Am I the only one?

Day 15: Trying this TDEE thing! Love all the extra calories! I'm going to eat an extra South Beach diet bar today.

Day 16: Up half a pound again, TDEE is bogus.

Day 17: How about a cleanse? My insides feel cleaner already! Can you believe that the human body has 7 pounds of poop in it? Which cleanse worked best for you? Can I do these every week?

Day 21: Went to dinner with a friend. I ordered fish and a light salad but she ordered cheese sticks for appetizers and only ate one so I had to eat the other six. Sabotage, right? She is jealous and wants me to stay fat.

Day 22: I want to eat all the foods, hold me back! Can you exercise during TOM?! Is this extra weight water or is it the cheese sticks from last night? What's everyone's favorite chocolate? Wait, don't tell me. Someone who is not me might see it and be tempted.

Day 23:

Day 24:

Day 25: User has not logged in for three days, she may need some encouragement

Day 27: ANY SUGGESTIONS FOR ME AT ALL? No, not that one.

Day 30: I did my best. Maybe next year will be my year.

(special thanks to those who gave me suggestions, some of them without realizing it. I wrote this a while ago, but thought it was relevant this month. It lives here on my blog: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/fivethreeone?month=201308)

    Not this time! (as most of us have been through this). Been at it since 11/2/15. Still have the
    " day 1" attitude. Trying not to make it complicated and just going with the flow
    ( logging everything and some exercise (nothing outrageous!).Everyone and everything else is second place. I'M #1!!!!!!!

    I truly believe that PMS isn't real, kind of like the female orgasm, it's just an excuse for women to act crazy a few days a month and over eat food. That's why women actually complain about weight gain during that time, it has nothing to do with the "hormones". It's because you stuff your face with chocolate!!!!

    Actual quote from my college roommate: "I never PMSed until I got to college and realized it was an option."

    If they do, they best keep it to themselves unless they want to...

    Wait. If I say anything, it could be construed as a violation of the CG. Hmmm.

    ...they should just keep it to themselves.

    Let's start a group of people who think you should always go big or go home when it comes to Ben and Jerry's. I need more positivity in my life.
