    If you fall off the wagon get back on; if you've neglected tracking for a day or two, don't beat yourself up. Today is a new day and start fresh!

    I just started too, sitting exams at the same time so not snacking is proving hard :blush:

    Feel free to add me, could do with some motivation and friends!

    Not alone. I usually try to bank a few extra calories for the week end.
    If your using the app there is a Net Calorie graph (under nutrition) that will show you if you are averaging your desired intake or not.
    Usually I try to stay about 100 calories under my NET goal Monday - Friday and that gives me an extra 500 calories that I can use on Saturday or Sunday (or split them between the two days...whatever works to meet my plans).

    I'm not new, but I just wanted to chime in and say good luck to you all! All of us here on MFP are very supportive and realize that we all started as "newbies"! If you need help, encouragement or just want to be friends, feel free to add me!

    Trying to find the courage to get on the scale to see if there is any movement; maybe at the end of this week.
