:ohwell: Today i had my first real bad since joining mfp. It all started when i skipped my breakfast, and worked through lunch. I came home from work hungry and frustrated. I grabbed a slice of bread and ate it. Then i had a brownie. Then i had another brownie...and yes a bigger brownie. Apparently that wasn't enough, so i made peanut butter cookies. I don't think i was with it at this point because of my sugar high.. So while i was in my sugar induced coma, i ate cookie dough. I don't think i've really ever eaten that much cookie dough....well, okay that's a lie, but it doesn't really matter at this point. The point is, my bad was bad, and just like i told my friends, it's a good thing it's Sunday. Now i can repent in my MFP confessional, and move on with a clean new tracking menu. There it's out!!

An entire pizza, plus I cant remember how many beers... plus beer munchies of whatever found my mouth when I got home. hahaha. It happens. Move on.0

yep - a whole ( large) pizza with chicken, mushrooms, tomatoes, double feta and double cheese with spicy ground beef and 3 cans of gingerale - felt like crap for 2 days but right back on track the next day0

3 packets of biscuits, 2 slices of cake and half a jar of peanut butter last week - that's what made me decide to join up, actually!0

Yes, been there when it comes to eating... Hang in there.....0

We all have times like this. Last night I made stir fry. It was awesome and I had to go back for more. More isn't supposed to happen in my life anymore but there I was, chewing and swallowing the extra.
There are other times when nothing will satisfy me and I know I'm going to keep raiding in that fridge. The thing is that I can't be doing that anymore.
The answer... drink a bunch of water, brush your teeth, log it honestly, and get on with things by starting over. Put it behind you.0 -
Taco Bell stuff. Thankfully, I guess, at least half my food was gross and I tossed it.0

The study session dragged on til 1am. 800 calories of potato chips, 600 calories of chocolate biscuits. Was thinking "oh gods what a nightmare". Logged it. Turns out, if "every day was like today" I would gain 1lb over the whole week. Well!
If you're on track every day, one bad-bad day can't wreck it.
And, EAT BREAKFAST

A whole box of Girl Scout Thin Mint cookies in an hour.
Edit: I admitted it on my MFP news feed but didn't log it in my diary

I just kept making plate after plate of nachos. I think I stopped at five.0

We all have a weak moment at one point or another. At least you admitted it and are willing to go on. Kudos for that! Tomorrow is another day.0

not since i joined mfp. a couple of years ago i developed depression related food issues, and once i ate an entire poundcake, a medium pizza, cheesy bread, chicken strips, pancakes, cookies and a large container of tapioca pudding all at once. and stayed in bed for 10 hours watcing tv afterwards. that like every day 4 or 5 times a week. and this is how i gained 60 pounds in one year.0

and this is why, even as a leader, I DON'T buy Thin Mints. lol
I am terrible when I am bad. and once I jump off the cliff....well I just keep on falling into bad. Yay for new days!0 -
Ice cream. So much ice cream.0
-
Oh yeah! I had myself a faturday last week which consisted of a bacon cheeseburger and an entire batch of chocolate chip cookies. I "just one more-ed" myself sick which fortunately led me to join here.0
-
once one of my clients ( im a hairstylist) brought me a homemade blueberry coffee cake. the manicurist take a huge chunk when she went home, and then i was left alone in the salon the rest of the day picking at the cake. i ate half of it. half of an entire coffee cake. scary how that happens, isnt it? its like... what did i just do!? hahahah0
-
i log it, but it's quick add calories...today there's over 500 of my bad....gonna begin again.0
-
so been there done that!!! hahaha. the very reason i DONT buy girl scout cookies anymore. i literally eat the whole package!0

HEY, the big thing IS, you know it was bad. Before MFP it wouldn't have entered your mind. You now know you can't skip meals and if you do, eat something thats better for you, like a sandwich with whole wheat bread. I am so weak I cannot have anything like brownies in my house. Today I was at Meijers and the 1st thing I ran into was a display of carrott cakes on sale. I might prefer carrott cake to sex! The operative word there is MIGHT.
Don't be too hard on yourself, make up for it this week. the thing we are on isn't a one month thing, it is a lifetime, lifechanging eating habit thing. Its not a diet. Its lifetime, if you want to get thin and stay there!!
Add me to your frind list and let me know how you do Best of luck

I'm sure I've done the same if not worse than that, although that was pre-MFP.
A few weeks back I ate two ice cream sandwiches in bed.0 -
I had a sweet craving FR night watching some youTube videos around midnight, so I ate a protein bar trying to get a much needed fix. I felt so guilty yesterday morning, that I logged it in my breakfast calories.. LOL Yeah, I know ... not like devouring a piece or two of cheesecake, but hey, I haven't had anything remotely bad for months, so for me it was confession worthy.0

Ice cream. So much ice cream.
[/quot ice cream! My husband who can eat everything and anything, buys the ice cream with the good stuff in it. I sit and pick out the good stuff with a fork and always end up eating half the container because the ice cream is stuck to the good stuff! Oh he gets so mad! lol0 -
Your bad is pretty impressively bad.0
-
I feel your pain! I had a bad binge last night while I was hanging out with my family at my mom's boyfriend's house.
Two large slices of pizza with ranch, six Hot Teriyaki wings, half a box of hot chips also with ranch, a quarter of a large Philly Cheese steak Stromboli, a bowl of popcorn, and two cans of Pepsi...all within an hour!0 -
hahaha. It happens. Move on.
That's really the best advice when it comes to this stuff.0 -
I'm not even gonna say... but yeah. Epic fail.0

An entire pizza, plus I cant remember how many beers... plus beer munchies of whatever found my mouth when I got home. hahaha. It happens. Move on.
I like how you think. Mmmmm beer.0 -
Last night, pizza, beer, beer, beer, beer, beer, beer, captain and coke, captain and coke, beer. Today, Wendy's. Hangover food. But I think I have drank enough water to fill a pool today.0

Chicken Fried Steak, mashed potatos, gravy, pinto beans, salad, corn, green beans, biscuts, honey, butter, chocolate pie. Topped off with a Diet RC.
And she is dishing up the Rocky Road as we speak.0 -
Once I start down the wrong path on a "bad" day, I keep going towards bad full steam ahead all day. I figure I already messed up my day so I might as well use it to get some cravings out. Fortunately this only happens about once a month.0

I haven't really gone over my kcal goal that much since I joined. One day I made the mistake to log AFTER I'd eaten it though, and it turned out to be at least 500 kcal over my goal. I had a healthy LCHF pizza that I only should have eaten half of (I was full and all, it was just so tasty!!), and raw food brownie with fudge frosting. I should really only eat that kind of dessert after having a light dinner. For me it really helps to basically plan my food intake before I eat it.0
