    So often people will eat something they didn't intend to eat, decide they are now off the diet, and say, "Kitten it!" and eat everything in sight, sometimes for days. So doing that is also inappropriate because it can turn a minor slip into real weight gain.

    That's my point. Going over (even by 1000 calories) is not going to un-do your hard work if you move on. Now. Understanding the math and physiology of what actually happened (less of a deficit vs "ruined everything") may help someone move on rather than give up. I struggled with the all or nothing mentality in the beginning and trusting this formula was a big hurdle, but here I am -4 years and -80lbs, moving on really does work :)

    My birthday fell on this long weekend so it was multiple days of indulging. Up 3lbs.

    But I'm back at it and I'm not worried.

    Old me would have given up and just gained all the weight back, but I'm not going to do that.

    Thanks for the reminder, OP. Love your attitude.
