Does a few days ruin it all?

    Frankly, even thought the impact of a few days over is likely small, I think it's important to have them, to prove to yourself that it doesn't require perfection to stay on track and that you can handle these "off" days and get back to plan.

    Nope! My weight before and after a 2 week holiday (vacation) where I didn't care what I ate...

    Started at MFP last January, had a ten day overseas holiday in June where I ate anything and everything I wanted, and went off the rails over Christmas. Neither of those undid the 95lbs I have lost so far. They just delayed getting to goal by a few weeks. That's it. The important thing is to not let those rare times become the norm again. I've been back on track for the last three weeks, and have no desire to eat over my calories at all...... I may or may not be planning some major chocolate nommage for Easter though.... :wink:

    Only if you let it. Log it, move on, and don't look back. It's the part of the whole "being human" thing.

    Everyone has off days. As long as you recognize them and get back to the healthier option all is good.
