    Log it, and forget it so that it doesn't discourage you. If you need to do penance then add an extra half hour to your exercise ruitine and eat only good for you food today. It is the average of what you do over each week that will show on the scale.

    Just go back to your regular scheduled meals. If you're worried about it then as you say "worth it", clearly it wasn't if you think that it'll affect your overall results.
    Best of luck.

    When I go over one day, I just start over the next day. I don't try to beat myself up over it (like I use to). Usually the next day ends up being my running day and I end up burning at least those calories if not more.

    When in doubt: run faster or further.

    Seriously? 2000 calories is not a bad day. I eat 2200+ a day every.single.day and I'm at the lowest weight I've ever been (5'5", 120lbs). I think eating 2000 for me would be dieting!

    My maintenance is 2100 so I don't think 2000 is a bad day. Just make better choices today.
    All this week I probably ate and drank 400,000 calories a day bc I was on vacation.
