Aww...don't kick yourself, Samantha. Just think, 'okay, so I had a fall.' Now pick yourself up and keep going on your journey as before. Look at how well you have done so far and all the hardwork you have put in to get where you are. Be proud of yourself and just hang in there. You are doing great!!

I think we are all tempted and I think we will all end up caving at one point or another, but the trick is in pulling ourselves back up and keep moving forward.

You can do this!!

Best of wishes, Robin

Thanks so much for the kind words.....last nite was a little scary.....i so dont want to fail...ughhh

but I will get back on the wagon!! I will not fail!

[Raine 170]

Failure is not an option! Besides, you are a strong woman and like you said just get back on that wagon and go forward.

Whenever you fall, pick yourself up at the first possible moment and turn around. In the moment, not the next day.

You are doing great,

Don't beat yourself up learn from it and move on and try and do better.....

I know what I do is if I must take a bite and push away!! move plate away from me!

WE all have had days like that. Today is a brand new day...a day for you to stick to your program. Just think how great you will feel tomorrow with today under your belt!!!!

[samantha209 19]

Thanks guys. Back to the regularly scheduled program. I wont be around cannoli's and cupcakes every day. Thanks guys for keeping me accountable.

It's not whether you fall, IT'S WHETHER YOU GET UP.

We all fall short at one time or another. Learn from it and move on. Everyone has made really good comments. Pick yourself up and march on the way you're supposed to.

I'm sure I'll be just like that. No big deal, tomorrow is a new day. One stumble means nothing girly.

It's ok Samantha- I know exactly what you mean. I so caved yesterday. I had 3 sugar Cookies. But today I'm determined to do right and move forward so I'm eating a light yogurt for Breakfast and I'm following that up with a Water. we can get back on track together!

yes Candace! failure is not an option!

Definitely the right attitude to have, girls! I'm with ya. One of my favourite quotes that keeps me going is, "Why would you choose failure when success is an option?" I'm working on living by that!

I read something on Twitter this morning that said, "Today is the tomorrow we worried about yesterday." So true! Every day is a new day. We all constantly have our falls but we've gotta get back up.

PS. Just re-reading your first post, I kept thinking of the line in The Godfather when he's like, "Leave the gun. Take the cannoli." Maybe we sleevers would be better off doing the opposite, haha

I think our new Number 1 rule is: Never self-loath.

We've done enough of that in our old lives. Today is a new day... get back on track. Every single morning you wake up, it is a new opportunity to get back on the weight loss wagon. We have to learn to balance "temptations". I personally don't see anything wrong with eating delicasies from time to time. However if you have it in your brain it is forbidden, you're going to want it all the more. Instead, enjoy the cannoli... just one -- NO GUILT!!! As long as you're doing the right thing 99% of the time, and you are moving your body to work off those extra calories, and more you will do fine.

Let us not become obsessed. I know I have a hard time with that concept. I'm learning and doing better though every single day.
