Overview & Trouble Shooting
Quoted from The Game On! Diet by Krista Vernoff and Az Ferguson

The goal of this competition and the book is “to encourage health and an attitude that will allow you to accomplish a healthy weight loss is that’s your goal, or toning up if that’s your goal, or getting up off your couch for the first time in three years if that’s your goal.” Some people love to compete - for anything- “ and if you give them someone to compete against and a team to answer to, it changes everything.”
p. xvi

You will never win if you never begin ---- Helen Rowland
p. xxi

When you burn more energy than you eat, you will lose weight

If you don’t make weight, don’t beat yourself up. Take a breath and then look at your portion sizing, food choices, and exercise. Make adjustments the following week.

The day off and meal off are in place to keep your metabolism burning at optimum speed and to keep you from feeling deprived.

Bingeing on your meal off or day off can sabotage your entire week and result in weight gain.

You will carry extra weight if you are constipated or premenstrual. Again, don’t panic.

Food sensitivities are common and can affect your body’s ability to function optimally. If you suspect you are sensitive to certain foods, try eliminating these foods from your diet and see how it affects your weight loss.
p.265


Finish every day and be done with it.  You have done what you could; some absurdities crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.   ---- Ralph Waldo Emerson
