Oy. My poor belly!
I decided to allow myself to indulge in food tonight. I've done really well, and decided that I deserved it. And I enjoyed every bite of it.
Until I logged it in! Holy Crow! :brokenheart:
I know it's a rare occurance, so that's okay. I also know that I enjoyed it, and that I gave myself permission. But seriously! I ended up eating two days worth of calories in one night! That is not okay at all!
But I'm not going to sweat it after I post this. I ate, I enjoyed, I was honest in my Food Log, and tomorrow I'm back to normal. But still.... Oy!

It must of been one of those days...I did the same thing :happy: and now my tummy hurts too :sick: . So tomorrow we begin again...never looking back...just looking ahead to that day when we can say I did it and I didn't sweat it when I slipped. Good luck on your journey and congrats on getting married.0

me too lol0

"Oy" about says it all, doesn't it? :ohwell: I can't count the number of times I've said that, either from over-indulgence or a healthy choice that really wasn't. Ah well, so we live and learn.0

Yeah, it was for sure one of those days.. I ate A LOT today! I guess that just happens though. It's strange that so many people seem to have picked today as the day, though lol. But tomorrow it's back to business for me, too!0

I've had a few of those days lately, and man do they suck! Bad choices make me so p'ed off at myself. I get over it quickly though.0

Duuude, I hear ya. I've been dogsitting all week and the first thing I see when I open their fridge is an open jumbo sized bag of mixed candy bars. I dove right in to those bad boys. The bag is now triple rubberbanded and shoved into the back of their freezer...
And here I thought I was being all cute by bringing my P90x videos w/ me. Ha. I have been taking lots of dog walks and went for run w/ the 1 year old choc. lab earlier. He definitely keeps me busy. Tomorrow's another day.0 -
Yeah, we went to the Cheesecake Factory with family that arrived tonight. I've never been to the Cheesecake Factory & don't have one in the city we live in... we went to one near the airport.
Anyway, let's just say it was a planned cheat day. I only ate 1/3 of my pasta & half of my cheesecake, but it was still ugly. It's all good though. I don't feel like I "cheated" though... I'm still on track & know my goals.0 -
Did that yesterday. I felt terrrrible last night after my indulgence, and my tum was still a little upset today. Oh well, it happens! It was so worth it at the time!0

I thought I was going to over indulge by having 2 drinks tonight, but after I ate what I planned for dinner, I was full and didn't want anymore and am still 300 under my calories for the day, so I probably better duck before someone from this post throws a cheesecake or a candy bar at me :noway: :laugh: :laugh:
Seriously, the cheat days will come and go, but your determination to prevail can carry on tomorrow, so don't let a little excess consumption derail your plan.:flowerforyou:0 -
Just like Weaklink said, overindulgence happens, and then you just get yourself right back on track!
That seems to be the story of my life these last 9 months since reaching my goal weight! :laugh: I royally pig out once every few weeks, but then get myself right back on track, since I DO NOT EVER want to go back to the way I was BEFORE coming to MFP! :noway:

For me the logging of my night of indulgence was sort of like the hangover from too much drink. I didnt like the feeling, so it happened with less and less frequency.
Now I may eat some crap food (like the Chick Fil A Sandwich last night-FRIED!) but I cant eat until my tummy hurts any more.
Of course this has take over a year............but wow-it is nice to not have that URP feeling:laugh:
I am glad you enjoyed your night out. WOW getting married in less than a year! You must be so excited,
Congratulations:flowerforyou:0 -
Thanks everyone for letting me know I'm not the only one. In my head I know that, but seeing the calories written out like that was horrible.
"arewethereyet" thanks for the well wishes! I'm super excited about the wedding. I can't wait! And then there will be little ones....0
