    You were over by 2 calories??? Obviously you're not serious about this weight loss stuff and need to get off this website.

    Read the original post! She was expressing how silly it is to stress about going over your daily calories when this whole process is the start of a new lifestyle, and even suggested that even if someone is over by 200 calories they should just move on and maybe move a bit more by taking a walk or something to counterbalance the overage.

    I knew I should've used the sarcasm font.

    Thank goodness your topic heading was sarcasm.

    I completely agree with you! However at the same time my OCD mind is like... oh god we're in the red, we failed................... it's stupid.

    Bait and switch! Here I thought I was going to read about a really neuratic person. Heck if I'm over by 200 I consider it a successful day, now over by 2000 not so much...

    Love this! I hate when people stress it, especially because it is almost virtually impossible to know EXACTLY how many calories you eat everyday. Nutritional information/labels are not the gospel of caloric intake, it's just a really good estimate. May as well stop stressing and just do your best.

    Glad you weren't actually worrying about 2 calories. I was shaking my head and then I was so relieved.
