Bad day - feeling guilty.

Options
Today started off great, but took a turn for the worse around noon. I made a bad choice for lunch(something that tasted great but high in Calories and wasn't very satisfying). Then it just seemed like I couldn't stop the urge to eat. This afternoon got very hectic and everyone in the house was stressed out and on edge. I ended up feeling very sick and got a major headache. I tried to do some pilates but only got about 15 minutes done. Then I ate too much for dinner and kept snacking. Now I'm too full for comfort and about 300 over my Cals. I want to do more exercise but I just feel too tired and sick.

I know that one off day isn't going to break my diet if I can get right back on the horse tomorrow, but I still feel really bad. :frown:

    Hey don't feel bad, it only stresses you out, even more. Just say, ok today i went over my daily amount but tomorrow I just eat more fruit.
    Keeping up positive attitude work wonders.
    You can do it

    Its alright baby, we all have those days, I have been having them lately too. Wake up tomorrow with a brand new outlook. Map your food and exercise for tomorrow tonight before you go to bed. Wake up with a big stretch.......don't open your eyes right away........stretch for 5 minutes and think about how great your day is gonna be......don't focus on the yuckies today.

    You can do it.

    :tongue:

    Hey, if your goal is a pound a week it means you still lost a little weight (although not noticeable on the scale, haha) today. And you def did not gain by going over 300 calories. So shrug it off and feel great that tomorrow you'll lose even more!

    Don't feel bad, it happens.
    I went to a wedding yesterday and made bad choices ALL DAY and then again this morning when we all got together for breakfast! bleck! I feel horrible.
    If I were to log my calories for yesterday and today, I think my computer would have blown up! Not even going there. I just need to get my groove back tomorrow.
    I will also be joining the Y this week. Need all the help I can get these days!

    Everyone has those kinds of bad days, no need to worry! The best thing about it is that now that you have found out that eating foods high in calories that arent filling don't make you feel good or put you in a good mood. Congrats on the extra pound and don't let today get you down!:flowerforyou:
