free large pizza fail

I believe that eating is not a day to day thing, as in, "I've blown it for the day, I'm a failure..."

It's a meal to meal thing. Don't beat yourself up over one meal. Make better choices next meal.

You were probably starving and craving. It's ok. You've got this!

What? A liquid only diet? I would eat more pizza if I were you.

3 slices is no big deal, for serious.

This. And also, now you know why liquid diets and other gimmicks don't work. Log your food, fit in some splurges here and there. You have to have a plan you can stick with forever.

Three slices of pizza is not a failure. Eating the whole pizza is a failure.

NOPE. Even eating the WHOLE pizza is not a failure, if it's not very common and you meet your calorie goals otherwise.

I get free pizza all the time.

Yesterday, I ordered one and ate half of it. So good.

I ate three pieces of pizza last night. And had a beer. It was delicious. And it fit in my goals for the day. Win win!

Pizza is not a fail - pizza is part of life. Log it, enjoy it when you have it, just don't eat it every night!

Honestly, I'd be more upset about the liquid diet - unless it was for medical reasons, "diets" like that could cause you more problems than three slices of pizza ever could.

Eat real food (and in the proper amounts!), track your cals, exercise, get good rest.

Believe me when I say that I'm totally not trying to criticize you, but perhaps you would have been less likely to binge on pizza if you haven't deprived yourself of real food for the last three days. Liquid diets are for when you are sick. Not for weight loss.

my fiance and i got a free large pizza coupon in the mail and i had 3 slices. i feel like a failure like do i even want this? what is my problem? i want to cry besides the fact i just got off a liquid only diet and straight to 3 pieces of pizza. so i feel sick

You've probably heard this but it bears repeating: "Under-eating always results in over-eating." Everyone binges after something like that. Your body's survival instinct is stronger than your self-control.

A liquid diet is something that no one has any business being on unless your jaw is wired shut. Real, healthy, sustainable weight loss is SLOW and the result of LIFESTYLE CHANGES and includes plenty of calories and real food.

If you get impatient and try to hurry weight loss faster than its normal or healthy for your body, you will only get to your next plateau or your next binge faster.

What is your exit strategy here? Lose the weight with a liquid diet, reach your goal, then go back to normal? The "normal" that got you here in the first place? But you will somehow do differently this time? Right now is when you get to learn the day-to-day habits of healthy choices and healthy weight regulation. But as you can see, losing weight in an unsustainable way like a liquid diet has built-in failure. Set yourself up for SUCCESS instead. Incorporate the small, lasting changes into your life that will ensure you never end up here again.

Words I live by: Never do anything to lose weight that you aren't willing to do the rest of your life to maintain it. :flowerforyou:

I failed today too.

I ate two chicken sandwiches from McD, french frie, ice cream, chocolate bar and rice and chicken (homemade) for dinner. Long story short, I binged big time. I am stressed the **** out today so that's my excuse.

I'd also feel like a failure if I could only eat 3 slices of pizza. That's only like 900 calories.

I am going to be blunt because this post concerns me.

Of COURSE you ate 3 slices! When you are constantly undereating and not getting what your body NEEDS, your body is going to rebel. Feed your body correctly on a daily basis and then maybe, just maybe, you will have better self control next time. Stop depriving yourself.

And a liquid diet? Really?

Though seriously... go eat more. You are way under your calories today (and most days).

eating 3 slices isnt rebellious, it normal.
