    with me it's usually chocolate or crisps... get some low cal snacks then you can snack and it'll only cost you 100 cals instead of 1500, go for a walk... but don't give up, one day of indulgence won't kill you.

    You're not alone! I'm told to eat something high in protein or if it's munchies, carrots work well for me (sometimes the hand to mouth is all I really want)

    Did the same with a bowl of Thai chicken satay this weekend. I think I was just bored. I should have read a book (not a cookbook :o) )or played a video game or something. But as said earlier, it's a blip...the most important thing is you recognise it and do something about it.

    I'm going for a run tonight. Which is one run more than I normally do in a week. That will more than burn off what I consumed.

    Keep the faith! :oD
  • Hi I know how you feel.. I've many days like that, but just pick yourself up and start fighting the fat demon away. LOL!!!. There will be days like this.

    Far too many days like this. :cry:
    I am getting lazy as the weather gets worse, and if I'm not careful I can eat for England at bed time, especially if I have been good all day.
    I tell myself I deserve a little treat, as I have calories spare. Then I just get silly and keep going.
    Sometimes I crave toast, others I need chocolate, or something stodgy.
    I make myself cross and hate the scales in the morning.
    But I don't give up completely... yet.

    Everyone probably has had a day like that. The trick is to not have anything in the house like that. Keep celery ad carrots for those times. Good luck.

    I do have days like this. I think we all do. What i do is I make sure I still track it. That way I can see visually what I did to my plan.

    I have days like this all the time. But its just one meal, which you cant undo. Just make sure your next choice is a good one and don't beat your self up, your only human.

    i have days like that only thing you can do is just forget about it. I try to throw in cheat days once in awhile to help me satisfy my cravings so i dont have days that i over eat.

    Every Sunday, when I hold all cals until I've had my big "Full English" breakfast, then work the rest of the day around the result.

    It works for me , good luck with your journey.

    To be honest, this happened in the beginning for me but I worked hard at being a better meal planner that way I would not be hungry into the late evening. My last meal is always by 6pm. I am never hungry at night and would rather fill up with water.

    Consider better meal planning throughout the day. The choices you make in the foods you eat do have a factor in this picture. Learn more about why you have these triggers and how to attack them before they attack you. By modifying these triggers, you will indeed see improvement.
