Went over today.

I went about 450 calories over today. I may go over tomorrow too if I'm not careful. Have a celebration to attend. It's okay though, I'm still at a deficit for the week. I just wish I would've stayed on track today.

    Me too. By 1000cals in fact. For like 50th time since I started logging 2+ years ago. I've never let such things bother me too much. I always just keep going.

    That's honestly not that much, in the grand scheme of things. Depending on what you've eaten that tipped you into the red, you may notice a slight water retention gain for a couple of days, but you would have to go 3500 calories over your *maintenance* calories to actually gain a pound of fat. Don't beat yourself up.

    That is nothing to worry about. Doing some heavy maths will show you that the maximum you could possibly gain from that is around 40g, which doesn't even show on the scale, much less on your body!
