    Don't beat yourself up over it. 3 donuts won't kill all the hard work you've put in. You can do this!!

    I don't know if you will find this to be support - but sometimes you just need a donut! Yes, get out there and work it off. If you can have just one, occationally go for it. I believe if I don't indulge every once it a while I will fall of the wagon on my cushy tushy....but you have to have control and you have to "earn" the reward with hard work and a clean diet otherwise.

    Maybe next time don't go as long before you allow yourself a little treat. That way you don't over indulge and you stay on track! Good luck!!!
  • Focus on the present, and what you can do now. The past is over. You can do it!

    thats bc its virtually impossible to eat just one
  • Thank you, This is the first time I am dieting & I am not sure if its supposed to give u a ton of craving. Trying to maintain my calorie count around 1700 with clean calories, but when I see delicious stuff, It drives me crazy.

    ........seriously?

    ANYWAY, to OP:
    It's okay! We all have those days. I mean, today I had cupcakes...but the thing is, I allow myself to have cheat days every now and then. If I didn't, I'd go crazy and wouldn't be able to stay on track. Plus, not much you can do about it now! Tomorrow is a new day, so just take it one grain at a time..and work extra hard at the gym on your next visit :D

    Do you eat back any of your exercise calories? If not, maybe you need to, periodically, to give yourself some wiggle room for the occasional donut. For me, it would be ice cream -- normally, i leave it alone, but every so often, it's an ice cream kind of a day. If it doesn't fit in my count for that day, I work out a bit longer the next day. Treats are fine (and keep you sane)... it's when they're the bulk of your calories that you've got to worry.

    Don't beat yourself up. Those donuts are sneaky, being all in your face and delicious ;)

    What matters is.... Just don't do it tomorrow. Get back on track now. You'll be fine.
  • Hay don't sweat it, everyone slips up you will get back on your track, the more you stress the more you will gain so just get up and go again.

    LOL! I know what you mean. I just started this 2 days ago and I feel like bc I know I'm on a diet i gt hungry more. I keep telling myself its not a diet, Its a new way of living!
    I believe though you got to treat yourself sometimes! Have a donut or 2 and really enjoy it, as long as it is not an everyday thing.

    Throw in some extra cardio to burn off the carbs and sugars. Chances are you're at a deficit and while it may seem like an extreme indulgence, it probably hasn't hurt you in the long run. Just don't let it shred your resolve, don't beat yourself up about it, and don't use it as an excuse to binge. Good luck!

    I hate donuts but I have to say I have ate 4500 cals box of chocolate before and the next day it kicked my metabolism and I lost 2 pounds the next morning... dont beat yourself up :)
  • They are sneaky indeed, sneaked into my tummy so fast. Its my gym day anyway, so might as well work a lil harder.

    Now, to build a plan of action for those cravings

    Take a deep breath? If I had doughnuts in the house and took a deep breath I would smell that sugar and wouldn't be able to keep the rest out of my mouth! LOL Maybe go outside and take that deep breath!

    Next time just buy one doughnut?? Same thing happened to me, picked up a box of doughnuts as a special treat for the kids, there were a dozen in the box and I only have 3 kids. You can imagine my kids did not get 4 doughnuts each (they were lucky to get one!). Next time that treat will be ONE doughnut.
  • I can so relate with you! I often wake up in the middle of the night craving something and have done the same thing. I am in the beginning of my journey, and I know I am not going to eat perfectly everyday. What is perfect? I try to focus on the moment, what am I eating right now? What healthy choice can I make right now? Is something bothering me emotionally that I feel like I need comfort? Don't beat yourself off, you are human. Just move on from here!

    Yup, and warm too.

    I agree, once in awhile a donut is a nice treat. I had 2 mini apple cider donuts a few weeks ago, and although I wanted many more, they really hit the spot.
    The important bit is to get right back at it, and don't let 3 turn into another 3. :) You got this!

    That's why they don't come into the house here or if they do they're just the plain glazed ones. I can't stand those. Good luck on your diet. I do know when I hit 185 I'm going to have a piece of blue berry cobbler and ice cream but it's going to be budgeted into the diet.
  • Its ok to indulge every now and again. Every week I give myself a "cheat meal" this way i eat what I have been having a craving for. Works great for me and better than a whole day of cheating. I agree with the comment above about not going so long before indulging...and you can always toss some extra cardio in the week or day you know your cheat meal is coming up or after you have that donut. Also look on the web for skinny sweets if you just have to have something at home...I know I do and I dont eat them everyday but those 100 cal packs of cookies give me the sweetness and curb my craving without blowing my diet plan. Hope it helps:smile::smile:
