To All Who Go Over Calorie Net More Than Desired...

We all make mistakes from time to time. We're only human! But, wouldn't it be great if we could be a little closer to perfect. Ladies and gentlemen, I present the July Perfection Challenge! By perfection, I mean not going over your net calorie goal. If you're willing to push yourself, this is for you! Starting today, July 1st, I challenge you to put your best foot forward and strive for perfection for this month. If you want to join, just reply. Together, we can support each other, talk each other out of overeating, pass around advice, and more. If you slip up during the challenge, you are NOT disqualified! I'll still motivate all of you this month, no matter what happens.

    I agree, I'm going to take it week by week - seeing as I normally have 3-4 days a week with a red number of between 1000-3000 !!!!!!!!!!! xx

    I really need to do this too as I've been way off track for so long now and could do with a big push, or maybe a kick in the right direction again!

    Maybe once a week? So next Friday, we can say X amount of green days and / or X amount of red days ?? xx

    I want to!! But I'm going to a festival on the 12th, and I'll fail on alcohol. I've had my ticket for months - I am NOT spending the festival calorie counting my alcohol!!

    Once a week sounds great! The check-ins are mainly good days/ bad days, and maybe some weekly net averages.

    Oh, and kitinboots, you can still join! Just don't record that day, and just focus on all the other days.

    We normally get take-out on Friday, so I may start off with a red :-/ LOL

    Okay, so I'll join then. I won't log my festival weekend (though I'm hoping some good habits will have stuck anyway).

    Great! Number of green days/red days due next Friday AND/OR weekly net calorie average. Feel free to post anything else you want here related to the perfection challenge, and friend me if you want more real-time support via newsfeed.

    Can I join too? I have a weekend mid July where I may go over but hopefully I can be perfect the rest of the month!

    The entrance to the challenge is open all month, and the only requirement is that you try. Oh, and might as well post this now. Rules for posts are no spam, don't be mean, and no pro-ana stuff. (For personal reasons.)

    I am in, I don't often go over but I do need to make sure I keep a track of my water consumption as I'm not hitting anywhere near 8 glasses and I think that's why I've not lost this week :(

    And me please - I have started off July really well - I have SIX calories left. I think I may save them for another day.
