    Early post today... My goal this week is to create a meal plan and stick to it. My schedule is crazy, and I eat on the run so this should be fun! Plan today, shop tonight and prep in the morning as I work late. Logged my food for the past two weeks and discovered I eat lots of bad food. Lol. Who would have guessed

    Mind if I join in on the daily posting? We can hold each other accountable to check in and keep going.

    Oh, that would be great! Are you just starting? I'll be on everyday.
    I guess I should have put day 2/365 to start this off.

    Good luck Jess! You can do it! I never thought I would be on mfp this long but I'm still here, logging my meals and exercising

    I have been on this time around for just over 30 days. Tried before but it just wasn't the right time. Of course that just means I gained more that I now have to lose. lol

    What happened yesterday???
    4/365!!!!! I didn't even realize I didn't post until just now. I logged my food, which is good, but I have to be accountable for everything! If one thing goes by the wayside then it will be easy to stop doing something else.... And then my excuses start! And boy!!! Do I have excuses

    :) It is easy to lose track of one little conversation. Don't be too hard on yourself. Today is a whole new day.

    There is a difference between being nice and recognizing that to err for a bday is human. To err for 2 days will get your *kitten* kicked.

    If we join this conversation can we do our own day count? Either way it looks like you have a great start :smile:

    Thanks bdgfn! I may have to count on you too some days lol!
    Livlovlrn... You can do whatever you need to do to be successful. Start your count when your ready and contribute always! Whatever you need from me, you got it! I can be a cheerleader, tyrant or anything in between. Together we can do this!! ( I guess this is my new motto.... Totally corny!

    I took a day to rest my knee and now it is swollen even worse. Lol. That will teach me to either a) think I can wrestle with the floor and win. Or b) spend a whole day doing homework. But I am still under calories so it is all good.

    I hear you on having a craving day. My mom called me this morning. She was laying in her driveway in the pouring rain. Got her to the emergency room. All before my first cup of coffee. Sigh she is fine, dislocated elbow and a sprained wrist. But I made due with dried fruit and a snickers bar with pizza when I finally got food.

    I love accountability groups! You should post everyday, a very good idea. You can do this :)
