Feeling guilty

It's more common than you think.
If you are working out effectively, that (or those) rest day(s) are not things you should feel guilty about. Your body will burn the calories regardless. The reason they are rest days is because they let your body heal from the workout (i.e. if you strength train, a rest day lets your muscles recover).
As for calorie intakes, sometimes it's necessary to go over. Some days your body just needs more calories.
I don't have advice...more of a suggestion. Try giving yourself that rest day (even if you do feel guilty). Try to do it for a month. If you don't notice the difference that rest day makes, then maybe you don't need it. Some people can work out every day of their lives and they only need a rest day once a month. It's based on what your body can handle, and how much your body needs off to recover.

Hey, almost no one works out 7 days a week you can't do that for the rest of your life!
Have a day or 2 off every week, or every other week, before you end up burning yourself out because that's when problems will arise.
& don't feel guilty about going over, we all do occasionally. It's just the way it is!!

I'm the same only it's not guilt that stops me from ever having a rest day. It's the fact I know that if I took today off then I'd make an excuse not to do it tomorrow and then the day after that.

I break a habit as fast as I make one.

In 466 days I've never had a rest day...... never. And as for burning out..... not yet. It's been close to 19 months & I'm actually going better now than when I started.

you should feel guilty for not resting

3 efficient workouts are way better than 7 mediocre ones.

Over eating on your rest day?

Nice!

Then you can return to the gym and smash it.

As long as you're still meeting your deficit for the week you'll still lose.

This....

Also, rest days are very important...that's when your muscles actually get the benefit of your workout. It's going to be way worse if you continue to punish your body like that and get injured...then you'll definitely be missing some gym time.

Thanks everyone I know I should rest and I hate feeling guilty about it. I am bound and determined to loose this weight and Woking out makes me feel so much better about myself. I may not be the big runner or heavy lifter but I am working out and I will get there I hope

more is not better and doesn't mean you'll reach your goals faster. This is a marathon, if you burn out then what?
