Hang in there Amy! Sometimes it can take a bit of trial and error to find the right balance of foods for your goal and your success. For me, I eat a lot of fruit (I see lots on your diet calendar too). It's a carb I definitely allow myself since I know there's good nutrition in much of it AND it keeps me away from other sweets that are much less nutritious. Something else that can be helpful for a lot of people is planning what you're going to eat beforehand. That way you can see the calorie and carb counts before you start your day and know where you might need to make some adjustments. Don't get discouraged... plans can just need a little tweaking.  

Please don't get discouraged. If it's any consolation, you made me feel good about myself today-(by supporting my weigh-in)- even though I gained weight :(( Please hang in there and take it one day at a time- 3xmamma 

Thank you Vickie 5966 and 3xmamma!!! I really appreciate your support. I needed it today.... Smiles 

Carbs can be pretty easy to get up there on. Don't feel bad about yourself over one day. It's exactly that. One day. It is not indicative of every day, but just that day. Think of it more like the weather, it can be unpredictable at times, but a rain shower does not always mean a flood.
