*Wow, did I splurge today!  To cut down to 1,800 calories, avoid the late night dessert and over snacking.  :S  Try to eat something that is more filling/satisfying instead of munching and then munching even more b/c you're still hungry.  I usually try to avoid having junk food in the house, b/c as you can see from today, wafers and granola bars are tasty, but not filling.
