    If you wake up tomorrow morbidly obese, you'll know why.

    True that. It could happen.

    for the first time in 6 weeks and it was too much sugar. How bad is this for just one day of this? Usually I've been coming in well under my calories, not eating back all of them. Hopefully I can get back on track immediately tomorrow...My workout week starts up again tomorrow(today was my rest day).

    Hate to inform you, you have much more inaccuracies than 69 calories every single day. Food label variant accuraces, quantity eaten of such foods, exercise calories.
    Besides the fact you probably selected the wrong activity level, and are well under there.

    And remember, a goal is something you reach, not try to aim well under, got the wrong idea there that will probably backfire, or make this a more difficult journey then it needs to be.

    As many others have said, 69 calories is nothing at all.

    I'd be more concerned about your eating too little on most days.

    If you don't eat enough, your body will go into starvation mode. It will think there is a food shortage, and slow your metabolism down to a crawl. To rev up your metabolism, try eating six times per day -- a few nuts or a piece of fruit or a string cheese or some carrots, etc., etc, in between your three main meals.

    Oh, wait! It looks like you weight about 117 pounds???

    Maybe I'd be more concerned about your trying to get too skinny!

    The little picture: Last week I too ate over my limit (and twice for about a 1,000 calories). YIKES!

    But that was just a couple of bad days.

    The BIG picture:
    So what can 6 months of health eating and exercise do?
    Here's some results from my dr. visit this morning:
    weight: from 281 to 202
    b/p: from astronomical to 118/78
    hdl: from nothing to 117 (optimal is 60+)
    ldl: from astronomical to 0 (yep, zero, zip, zilch nada)

    Just keep doing the right thing most of the time! :happy:

    couldn't help but laugh when i read this. the other day i had my first major (RECORDED) infraction when i was 500 something over. it was my rest/spike/cheat day but whatever. 69 is nothing to be worried about!

    being only over by 69 is much better than being way under, as you stated you have been.

    No stress.
    Did anyone know that those amazing little gingerbread muffins (that are only 2 bites a piece) are 90 calories?!?!?!
    They are tiny so I didn't feel bad about eating 4 of them until I entered them!
    I went over by 108 yesterday because of them. You have to treat yourself sometimes! Just make your workout harder to make up for it! :-) hehe
