				Trying check in

				I'm back after a few failures. Thought I'd try daily check in to keep me on track. Started Friday and succeeded but it was hard. Saturday was an s day and boy didn't I have a blow out!! So disgusted with myself that I have forgone my second s day today and have made it an n day. Again really hard but successful. I don't know whether I'm hungry or just bored and empty. I need to develop a really positive outlook and to help me I'm reading the happy posts in the forum. Will post again tomorrow.

				Welcome, Rosie -- it's OK to have a blowout on an S day!  Just keep on going!

				Rosie--So many people here have 'blowouts" as you call it, on the weekends.  i would encourage you to (in the future) not impose N day structure on an S day!  It takes a lot of mental energy, and the whole point is to have the S days be our release valve from the long-term energy expenditure of building N day habits.  Be gentle with yourself, you have a beautiful name and beauty is not all about looks, anyway.

				I completely agree with automatedeating. I'm a year and a couple of months in and still have some, although no longer all,  wild S days but you know what - I lost over 10kg anyways. Don't worry about S days yet.
The other thing is, your tolerance to what you consider a blow-out goes down too. 
Good luck!
