Often times the hardest part about dieting is imagining how long it will take to get where you want to be. But, the journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step. So try starting small; cook dinner 3 nights a week, or take lunch to work. But big steps or small, commit today to the most important thing you've got...your health.

"I ate healthy every single day this week. I can do better next week by watching my calories more closely, but my diet consisted of healthy vegetables and protein sources every day. I got bad sleep one night, but never twice in a row."

"I was fatigued and made a poor decision to eat my "forgotten" protein from dinner (after finishing my dinner & after going for a painful dog walk...my foot still hurts...). When the protein was finished I added an apple and added some peppers and hummus and then some popcorner chips and guac...not sticking to bright lines. Will try to learn from this in the future. Boo!"
"During all the period I am counting. There was no day when it was more then 75-80 grams, a lot of days it was less than 40 grams. Good statistics. Of course it could be even better. Have lost half of a kilo of my weight so far."
"Mealtimes were wonky, with Sam's Empowerment Circle in the late afternoon. But one late meal with 2 proteins and lots of vegetables seemed fitting. Bright."
"Great job to stick to your guns - even in the face of adversity (fighting with some fatigue, a foot injury and now a hand puncture wound too...) So proud of you, Karen! Keep it up! :)"
"I needed this bright day to get back on track after several days of eating very sloppily. My "research" is instructive, but, seriously, how much more do I need? "
