Sad Day

I went to my christmas dinner at college today and am now in 2000+ cals for the day.

I recalculated and if I had been a little more careful during the day and a little less lax during the dinner, I could have easily stayed within my limits.

lesson: calories are everywhere and if you are not careful the will be devoured by you.

    Don't obsess about it. It's okay. As long as you had a good time, don't stress over the little things like this or you'll become OCD about it. The one great thing about college is that you can find any excuse to walk somewhere, whether it's to class or the student lounge, so maybe squeeze in some extra walking? Don't worry :wink: Tomorrow is another day and you'll get back on track girly. Relax and try to enjoy the rest of the holiday season. :bigsmile:

    Also, just to give you a different perspective, there have been times in the past when I've actually lost after doing something like that. I don't know if it keeps your body from getting used to a certain routine or what. I know "they" say that if you're doing the exact same exercise motion over and over again that your body gets efficient and doesn't burn as many calories with the same effort. So perhaps the same is true for food. And I'm not advocating doing it often, but I think a "cheat day" or meal occasionally probably helps keep us sane. Either way, no harm done. Just keep doing what you've been doing. You're doing great! :glasses:
