  • Ugh -- so I am at my parents' house for the 4th and I did horrible yesterday! Used up one of my 4 bad days already, on the very first day. And woke up this morning over a pound heavier than yesterday because of all the sodium. So frustrated with myself! I WILL stay under today!

    I actually increased my calories because I was on 1200/day goal to lose 1.5lb/week so now I'm on 1lb/week. The 1200 was stressing me out and I was eating and eating and eating and feeling guilty. Now I feel more at ease about calories and in control. I don't know if you could do this? But honestly, I've had the worst few days/week to the point I thought about quitting MFP and more and I feel a little bit better here and there.

    You can do it!

    Hope everyone had a good Fourth and is ready to get back in the game ... I know I am!
  • Has anybody thought about zig-zagging calories? Because I'm thinking about it but I'm not sure yet and that would kind of cancel me out of this challenge.

    oh...very bad weekend! :sad: I overdid it everyday. So much good food everywhere we went. I wasn't near a computer to log anything. Oh, I will just start fresh today!
  • Hello everybody! So it looks like I have to back out of this challenge. I just went to the doctor and she told me I tore my soleus (a small muscle in my calf) and every time I'm exercising it gets worse. I am not allowed to exercise for a whole week! This includes walking :( Ahh well. Good luck everybody! YOU CAN DO IT

    I decided to do a 7-day detox program on Monday to try and kick start my metabolism using Natural Factors Revitamix and Detoxitech. I am on Day 5 and doing well but just started the Detoxitech drinks today - they are ugly green and unbelieveably nasty tasting. Has anyone else tried this and have suggestions on what to mix it with to hide the flavor?
