    Its a marathon...not a sprint!!!! 2 days aren't going to defeat you! You on pace just finish your race!
  • It's all good honey.... If you can just sit back and remember that the two days are NOT your normal lifestyle, the previous days ARE your normal lifestyle. Everyone is entitled to have a rough patch. We all binge at times, sometimes for a day, sometimes for a week. But you have already created a reality of weight loss to be more active. You can do it!!!!

    What they said.

    And, friend ALL OF THEM! They will be with you, watching you, supporting you for the next 40 pounds. Up to the day that you take a picture with your cell phone of your awesome new figure in your bathroom mirror and post it here. Then we will all applaud and look forward to the day we can do the same.

    Hit it hard in the morning, have a healthy meal and snap, you are back on track.

    But Friend all of these fabulous people. Seriously.
  • Don't beat yourself up over 2 lousy days!!!! Think about how far you have come. Pick yourself up, dust yourself off and get back on the wagon :) We all have those crappy days that's what makes us human.

    Sometimes after a good loss, it's like I lose my mind for a day or two. Before I know it, I'm eating something ridiculous like southwestern eggrolls. mmmmm....southwestern eggrolls. Anyway, I just have to rein myself back in and refocus. I also think a lifetime of using food as a celebration tool is a hard habit to break! Hang in there! You've done excellent!

    Going over your limit isn't bad once in a while. It helps your metabolism believe it or not. As long as you don't eat below your BMR and have a healthy decifit from your TDEE you're good.

    A couple of days will not undo months of healthy eating So it's good to fall off he wagon once in a while to treat yourselft.

    Virtual hug! Holding space for you and sending you breath to carry on. Be proud of the courage you have shown this far in your weight loss journey. Take a short maintenance break if you need to rest. Then gather up your courage to make another push.

    2 days- just enough to reset your metabolism! We all have set backs. The important thing is to get back up and keep going :)

    Hang in there- you've come a long way and we are cheering you on!! :flowerforyou:

    I'd never make it in life if I didnt live. A couple days isnt anything to beat yourself up about, just a little living on the side of your healthy habits. I'm sure you remember to - KEEP ON PUSHING. Doesnt mean you are quitting!!

    I'm so glad you shared this with us. I had two really good weeks of healthy eating and then just like you I have binged the last two days. I'm struggling to keep going, but I'm going to give it my best. Tomorrow is another day and I will keep trying. Don't let the two days get you down. You can do it!
