    Just remember, we are our worst critics! While you may feel like a failure, nothing was ever accomplished without trying for something!

    My favorite quote that I think about when I'm feeling like a failure or like I can't just get going because I'm afraid to fail:

    "Nothing ventured, nothing gained!!! "(and what a perfect pun for us in this situation! :)

    I shall check-in now for the week as I know the outcome for tonight !!!

    So, as I already said on Monday, Sat and Sun of last week were WELL over !!!

    Mon, Tue, Wed and Thur this week I have had green numbers. I have 1,106 calories left for today, but we are getting Dominos Pizza and I am going to have a few beers so I know that I will be over today.

    So, This week would be; RED: Sat, Sun, GREEN, Mon, Tue, Wed, Thur, RED: Fri.

    FINGERS CROSSED I only have another 1 red day over the weekend instead of 2.

    I hope everyone else is doing well - I look forward to the updates, I am pleased I have not failed as miserably as last week !!! xx

    Not a brilliant week, I think 3 red and the rest green but I admit a couple of days I stopped logging my food because it was so bad! Been ill though so I actually think I have done ok to manage as well as I have.

    Welll I think I've been doing this since I joined (although my diary would not indicate so since when I found out I'm 15 lbs lighter than I guessed I was it changed my calorie allotment...and my goals for allllllll the previous days...I was working off of false numbers at the time)

    I've been working off the accurate goal since Sunday Great fit for a group for me thanks guys :)

    So if we're reporting in for the week technically I had 1 red day ( lSat) before my calorie goal got changed on me :)

    Worried about going red Sunday - hubbys birthday and going out for free bday food alllday....trying to plan choices now.

    Checking in for this past week, I only had one red day over, the rest were green!!!! :) I've been trying so hard lately, and it's been really rewarding because I've been seeing some movement on the scale (in the RIGHT direction), which I haven't seen for about two months now.

    Nice job on being so close to goal yesterday coolsmartygirl! Good luck next week!

    Due to unexpected plans, I am completely off-track on checking in. Sorry this challenge isn't working out for everyone-maybe too much too soon. But, if anyone still wants to continue, feel free to use the forum for whatever you like (support, tips, and the like). I am no longer the leader, so if anyone wants to take over, they can. Otherwise, farewell to you all. I wish you luck-wherever you are in your weight loss journey.

    I haven't been able to log in all the time , but I am still being very careful with what I eat. With me it's not that I eat the wrong types of food just TOO MUCH of the right ones. I can still say that the greens are definitely beating the reds . I think I've only been over my allowance on 2 days so far.
