  • Forgive yourself! We have all done it at one point or another. You just have to forget it and get back on track. If you beat yourself you will only feel worse. Think positive and in a couple days you'll get see that one slip up will not ruin your entire effort! You are doing great, you are NOT failing!

The good part was half the desserts I was allergic too! Odd thing to be happy about but we all get it. However there was an apple pie. I…

  • If it's a work week I eat about 5 or 6 small meals. Usually yogurt, fruit and granola for breakfast. Then either fruit or vegetable for a snack. Lunch is between 300 to 400 calories.

  • I agree to keeping the diary public. It's not about being nosey. Besides it's not like you have anything to hide here of all places. Regarding choosing calories wisely, well that's obvious. But you should never deny yourself food that your truly truly want. I love chocolate, but I only allow myself so much. But if my weigh…
