    I don't subscribe to the concept of regular cheat meals, however I recognize that there are times when circumstances, like yours, are going to put me in a position to inadvertantly go over my calorie quota. It happens; learn from it, but don't let it upset you. Its great that you feel uncomfortable and sick. Now you know your body has adjusted to its new lifestyle! Learn to recognize the signals of being full more quickly, 'cause you now know you don't like the result. As far as gaining weight, keep in mind you are probably eating at enough of a deficit that you may not have hit met the PLANNED differential, you are probably still at a deficit.

    Good luck and keep on keepin' on.

    So you had a bad meal, tomorrow doesn't care what yesterday had.

    LOVE this! This is how I try to approach it; if I have treats beyond what I'm allowed one day I log it and move on. If I allowed it to upset me greatly, it might cause me to get in to a "what's the use?" mentality and I go off the rails. Don't beat yourself up about it, just keep on keepin' on :flowerforyou:

    i don't consider myself cheating when eating over either, simply because that implies I am on a diet. I'm not.

    When I know I've eaten over my calorie count, I have been known to do some extra exercise, usually an extra walk.

    Please don't be too hard on yourself. You didn't cheat, you just ate more than you wanted to. :smile: .

    I agree with the run, not the fast.
