    You're only human. The key is to only have these days very, very infrequently. As others have said, drink lots of water and make sure you eat very healthily for the next few days. These kinds of days can sometimes jumpstart a lagging metabolism so you may find you've actually lost weight after a week or so.

    I did that last Saturday and it was way to much to even try to work off so I didn't even work out at all. The rest of the week did the same as always and I didn't gain anything but didn't lose anything either was exactly the same (141.6) Every once in a while won't kill you.

    You can't take it back now. Feeling bad about it isn't going to change anything. It would stay off the scale for a few days though because you will be up most likely from water weight and that will only make you feel worse. It was one day and you are not a bad person and your goals and hard work have not been derailed. Like a lot of people said, it might actually help you in the end because your body isn't used to it. I would just try not to binge too often. I'm having one of these days myself. Tomorrow is a new day; start over.

    Thank you so much for sharing that and the fact that you are in your uniform makes me feel better. Seriously it was criminal the way I ate today! If it can happen to you it can happen to us all. :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :blushing: :blushing:

    Hey!!! That is in the PAST!!! If you WENT on an eating binge, that happened in the PAST. It isn't happening in the present, it doesn't have to happen in the future! That which is past is past and you nor I nor anyone can go back and change anything that is history.

    That said, you have the choice to move on from here and do right by yourself in the present and in the coming present (the future).

    Don't dwell on things in the past. Learn from them, accept that 'yes, dang it, it happened' and don't live in regret of what happened. Just start - THIS MINUTE - to do the things you know to do and you're going to be fine!

    Keep up the good work!

    Just know your next meal will be on track! Tomorrow will be a fresh start! It's important to take a day off from dieting anyway. So, today was your day off!
