    I'm so sorry to hear you had a bad day. I sympathize because I do the same thing as well... on the bright side, It's not entirely too late! It's still fairly early in the day so exercise is a possibility! Even if it's just a little it will help, not just with calories, but your mood!

    Even if you don't do that all you can do is pick yourself up, brush yourself off and start anew tomorrow. One fall won't hurt and it's all about moving on from there! Stay positive and you'll keep up with weight loss which will put you in a healthier mindset to handle this current and any future bad news!

    You've got control! You have the power! Everything in your life is dependent on choices, choices that YOU make!

    You got this! :)

    Edit: Urk! I just saw on your profile that you're writing from England... so maybe it is a little late to get exercising today but I stand by the rest of what I said!!

    The day is not over. You can still exercise. Start again tomorrow.

    I'm sorry that bad things happened in your day. DO NOT let it get the best of your efforts!! You are worth it...keep fighting for your goals!! Next meal, make better choices, that's all. I'm glad you knew that you could let us know you needed help! That's what we're here for! : )

    PS...You didn't "give up", you came to where your support is!

    The good news is, that the day isn't over yet! You CAN get right back on track TODAY.

    Bad news blows on the diet front for sure...but pick yourself back up and move on. Right now, its more about picking yourself back up and getting right back on track. You can do it!

    Take another thirty minutes and tell yourself that after this thirty minutes that I am going to get back on track and move on.

    That is all anyone can do. These things happen and will keep happening. Learning from your mistakes is your best defense at preventing it the next time!

    Not to worry hun. We all have days like that. I'm sorry you've had a bad day. The great thing is tomorrow is a brand new day and you get to start all over again.

    You are fantastic! You have already gotten through the worst part of today. Things are on the up from here on.

    When I've had challenging food days I find it helpful to log my food for the following day. It kind of sets your mind towards getting right back on track. Not sure if that's useful but give it a try.

    Hugs :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    Girl I too have had bad days where I Emo-Ate and felt horrible. But the next day I remembered that when the sun came up I was getting another chance. Its a moment by moment choice and you cant change the past or dwell on it, you just shake it off and move along! You can do it!!!

    Hugs!!!! :flowerforyou:
