Guilt

Today I ate over my max calories and I feel really bad about it, anybody have any tips to make me feel better about this, maybe even some articles? It's the first time, and I know you should have a cheat day once and a while but I just feel so bad. It's totally irrational but I can't really help it, I have bad anxiety in general.

    Did cthulu come and wreck your house? If no. Deep breath and carry on. Tomorrow is a new day. I've lost 53 lbs in 9 months and I still had days where I'd go in the red and a few times eating 3k+ (Yay holidays). Life is too short to waste feeling guilty about enjoying life. Just get back to it tomorrow and forgive yourself. :flowerforyou:

    Just think as tomorrow is a fresh new start 8) Or compensate thru the rest of the week for your splurge. We all deserve it now and then.
