So upset...18 calories over

I'm 18 calories over my goal for today. :cry:

Should I exercise this late?
Do you think I'd have to eat back the extra calories?
Do you think my BMI would be affected?
Do you think I should take selfies for before/after the 18 calories?
Should I increase my overall calories or decrease them?
If I have a calories deficit tomorrow will I enter starvation mode?


Lord I hope this doesn't lead to fat shaming...or burro shaming. I couldn't handle it. :noway:

    OH NOOOO NOT 18 CALORIES OVER !!

    ur going to be fine.... sheesh lol... its not that big of a deal... 18 is like a penny comapired to a twenty dolar bill... its NOTHING to get worked up about...
  • So, you slipped up a day. It's okay, like my friend has told me on my few slip up days: "You've been doing great, just think of it as a 'reward' and remember that you can always do even better tomorrow."
    Because if you beat yourself up over it, you'll go crazy!

    I think you should rage quit and eat a whole batch of brownies. You've already blown it, anyway.

    I think your life is probably over.

    JK, the amount of energy you spent stressing over this prob burnt off those 18 and then some.

    Nice troll post.

    18 cals over? Gosh! Why 18? You would be fine if you've stopped at 17. Now all your hard work is gone!

    I'm 46 calories over..but it's a bag of chips. And a small one at that! I haven't had chips in forever so why not, one bag won't kill me.

    Normally I would be distressed but...it's ok. c:

    I'm onboard with this. Peanut butter swirled brownies.

    Your life is over. Sorry. That's just it. You ate 18 calories of death and destruction.









    Great thread. God bless.

    Oh dear. :cry:

    Well a 125 lb person burns 41 calories per half hour of typing, so do some more typing and then eat another 18 calories. :bigsmile:

    I'm in a similar boat, but I still have 75 calories left.

    The dessert I want is 80 calories, that would put me 5 over and ermagawd I doan wanna hit a plato.

    Should i wait until almost midnight and eat most of it but save the last bite until after midnight so it counts as the next day?
    Would I log it as 75 today and 5 tomorrow.
    I'se so confused!

    brush your teeth for an extra long time to burn those 18 calories. but not too long, or you will be under and have to eat again. it's a fine balancing act.

    also, it's important to remember... burro shaming is NEVER an option.

    You never know, she could be serious. I don't think it's funny. There are tons of people who actually become this obsessive.

    Careful. Assuming you are at maintenance...do this just 200 days in a row and you will have gained a full pound. 2000 days of this kind of wanton abandon and you'll have added TEN pounds. And in a little under 55 years of these kinds of shenanigans, you'll be ONE HUNDRED pounds heavier.

    This is truly a dangerous path down which you are headed. Tread carefully.
