I heard some very helpful words of wisdom recently that I thought would share......the person, also on a diet to change an unhealthy lifestyle, stated that even if you mess up and ruin a whole day by overeating, you cant do THAT much irreversible damage in a day...... theres always tomorrow to burn that extra lot of calories off.......however, if you allow yourself to stray from the path for a week.......you can do ALOT of damage in a weeks time! So remember, one day WILL NOT kill your progress so DONT GIVE UP if you feel as though you failed for one day, get right back on the train tomorrow and keep going for your goal.....its never too late!!!

    AMEN! I was concerned that i did some damage i have been on predinisone, the other day i ate like 1000 calories or so over, last night i ate exactly 1200 which will probably never happen again, and tonight i was over by like 200 and some.
    but tommaorw needs/has to be a better eating day. stopping for a minute to refocus and get back to my 1200 calories a day.

    I blew today too, nice to know i'm not the only one. But tomorrow is a new day!

    The best example I have heard was comparing it to a person who eats nothing but fast food and junk all the time, will eating salads for 1 day make a difference? Just like how one bad day will not really affect someone who eats healthy the rest of the time.
