Massive fail :(

Don't beat yourself up over it. It happens. I went with my one friend to Cheesecake Factory and ended up eating over 1,100 calories there one day and actually LOST weight the next day. Setbacks happen. It's working hard every day and not giving up after they happen. Just pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and continue. And congrats on the Insanity program....2 weeks is awesome! You're doing great!

Hey. One day, however off, is not a massive fail.. unless you keep telling yourself so.
That was yesterday. Push on.

Don't beat yourself up over it. It happens. I went with my one friend to Cheesecake Factory and ended up eating over 1,100 calories there one day and actually LOST weight the next day.

i would listen to whatever she says. 225 pounds loss !!!!!!! GREAT JOB!!!

you were 800 over....my guess is that's not 800 over your TDEE but whatever MFP set, so you were really only over by about 300....which is less than 10% of 1lb of true weight gain.

The thing a bout losing weight - it's a long-term thing. Even if you don't have a huge amount to lose, you will still want to maintain it when you reach your goal, and the only way you can really do that, is to make lifestyle changes that are sustainable long-term. When you get to goal, you'll have maybe a few hundred more calories to work with, but you'll still need to be careful not to let it creep back on. The best way to make sure you keep up with it is to create a lifestyle now that you can continue indefinitely. The way you are describing this programme you are on - it doesn't sound very sustainable to me. I don't know much about Insanity, but perhaps building in rest days is a good idea. Overdoing things to the point where you burn out is not going to help you in the long run, and it sounds like you already feel a little resentful that your evenings are being lost. I'm not saying stop doing it - but try to find a balance that you are happy with. With exercise - if you get some enjoyment out of it, it's so much easier to keep it going.

As for the calories - I wouldn't even try to "make up" for it. 800 calories is really not a big deal in the grand scheme of things. I really doubt you were even over your TDEE (total daily energy expenditure / maintenance), so you shouldn't have gained any fat from it. Even if you did, 800 cals is not even half a pound. By the way, if your weight does go up a little on the scales, it's most likely water retention from extra sodium/carbs, as well as from your exercise. Feeling guilty when you go over, or that you've "ruined" the day or "ruined" your diet, these are ways of setting yourself up for failure. Don't beat yourself up and don't be too restrictive now to try to compensate. You just had a day off, and you can get right back on it today.

Dont be so hard on yourself. I'm new to this site and am starting out with 58 lbs to lose which I am finding hard to comprehend. Look at how much you have lost. Its amazing.

I went out for dinner last night and skipped training....resulting in me being over my daily calories by over 800!

800 only?? I ate half a jar of peanutbutter yesterday. That's almost 1200kcals (without counting my breakfast, lunch and dinner). You'll live hun!! .

Just start over today! Good luck!

It's all part of life. Look at it this way, allow yourself one day a week to "cheat". I'm not saying to go over board on that day every time, but take that day to be able to enjoy yourself and not worry about what you had to eat, drink, or even do for that day. As long as you maintain a healthy lifestyle for the remaining 6 days of the week, that 1 "cheat" day will never seem to daughting.

I hope this helps
