    Every day is a new day. Just start over, day after day. LOG EVERYTHING, including your cheats. Sometimes seeing the calorie numbers in front of your face is a wake-up call. Push yourself to log as accurately as possible until it becomes a daily habit. Just keep on keepin' on. We all fall off the wagon, often. What matters is how many times you're willing to climb back on. ALWAYS get back on!

    I agree with @Equus5374 Writing down what you eat daily helps, also i say find an exercise program that is fun for you. SOmething that make you look forward to it.
  • How often should you exercise per week,I currently do cardio combat which burns 520calories a time but I only do it twice a week ,should I do more cardio or is this enough and thanks for the advice,I never log what i eat if I slip up

    I'm no expert but in my opinion what you eat makes more of a difference than the exercise. Don't get me wrong you have to exercise but I have found that no matter how much I work out if my diet is not on point I don't lose. Just my opinion
