i screwed up, fat again, really depressed, help :(

It will definitely go down, just cut out all the junk and your body will dispose of the excess weight you gained. Stay strong and motivated.

Think about it this way: You can't get skinny in a few days.... but that's a good thing! Or else it would mean you can get fat in a few days!! I lost a ton of weight last year over a 3 month period. However, my dad died in December and I gained it all back plus some. I'm working to get back down to a healthy weight although I had 4 full months of binging and no working out. We can do this together! 30 days is plenty of time if you eat right and exercise!! You got this!

hun don't be hard on yourself we all have our bad days and slip, just get back on the wagon and don't give up. :flowerforyou:

Honestly, don't beat yourself up about it! I'm sure everyone goes through rough patches, what matters is that you are getting it all under control again! Remember that binging has probably made you more bloated than normal as well, so after a couple of days of exercise and eating healthily I'm sure you'll feel much better. You're back on track now, and that's all that matters. I have no doubt in my mind that you'll look even better than you did before in 30 days time! Good luck!

My husband's stomach does that every day. It's mostly water and stuff that needs to pass through you.

KayteeB, I know the feeling and I know the actions from very personal experience...it's like you're doing so well and then one little indulgence releases the flood gates and you just can't stop eating. AND THEN...the INSANE guilt trip you put yourself on, leading you to more depression and more eating (cuz hey, I'm already doing bad, may as well continue eating, right?) Well, take it from one who has done that cycle over and over...I've accepted that my binging demon will always be stuffed in my mental closet, trying to force it's way out and while I can keep it securely locked up most of the time, every now and then I get weak and it overpowers me, escapes and runs a muck. So I've come to look at it this way...I've just eaten bad food and I've sabotoged my efforts. Now, I can eat good foods and get back on track. The same way my body gained weight because of how I treated it, my body can loose weight because of how I treat it. My suggestion is to focus right now on your 30 day plan....you'll soon get back to the body you were proud of in that cute bikini...and beyond! Forget those things which are behind and press ahead towards your goal :>)

Put the binge behind you and start fresh today. Cut out the junk and get your exercise in and you will see an amazing difference in 30 days. You got this!

The only way to go is forward. You can't take back those few days, but you can decide to move on from them. You also probably just have a lot of water retention and sodium bloating. The best way to get rid of this is by drinking a ton of water and making sure you get a good sweat going during your workout. I speak from experience. I recently had a birthday and gave myself a free weekend pass to celebrate and eat what I wanted. That following Monday I stepped on the scale and 5lbs that took me 3 weeks to get rid of had appeared again. I did some research and found that it was just bloating from all of the sodium intake. I just drank a lot of water and stuck to my exercise routine and within 3days that 5lbs were gone again. Chin up.

Sorry to hear about your Dad x

I've noticed that the size of my belly gets bigger and smaller throughout the day,no matter how much I eat,so I wouldn't really worry about it.You're probably just bloated.It'll go away after just few days of being careful about what you eat.

Ditto, Ive binged big time for the last 4 days too. Feel rotten today and ready to cop on again now. We can do it!!

i cant believe i was so stupid, so bloody stupid

ive spent the last 4 days binging and i mean completely binging. I had previous cut out starchy carbs, fast food etc and done amazing with my weight loss.

I took a picture today and my stomach has exploded outwards. Ive only ot 32 days untill my holiday and need to know if it will go back down if i eat sensibly again and exercise. I restarted the 30 day shred again, plus im doing 60mins a night on the stationary bike.

I am so depressed i just keep crying and crying its horrible.

You're probably binging because you're over restricting what you like to eat. Part of the reason why I don't encourage my clients to diet is because of binging issues.
Eat within your calorie limits and don't be afraid of eating things you like to, BUT be aware of calorie count.
