That's right, I binged, and I'm not sorry.

    What a fantastic sentiment. You've embarked on something that will define you for the rest of your life - within this new framework, you can eat, drink and be merry with your friends and get right back to healthy living in a heartbeat.

    You make me proud. :flowerforyou:

    You are going to love what I always say here: it helps your metabolism to have a treat day!

    But seriously, since you eat quite low calories usually, I do think it's an actually good thing to have a high day. Even if those kinds of theories bug you like crazy ;):D

    Sometimes we just need to let our hair down....I ate brownies and pizza this weekend. Enjoyed both TREMENDOUSLY! Oh, and two Three Musketeers after I dropped my daughter off at the airport. :sad: Followed it all up with a Jillian Michaels workout. Except for feeling blue about missing my family, I'm ok with my eating activity this weekend.

    Thanks, OP! You just reminded us that we are all human with human needs/desires, and that's what makes being human WONDERFUL!!!

    I wouldn't class that as a binge, a binge to me is eating till you feel sick and awful. If it's a special occasion, i.e birthday, christmas or holiday I enjoy every bite, don't worry about logging my food and don't feel guilty.

    Ahh something similar happened to me today :laugh: my mom and I went out for early dinner at a diner and I had sweet potato fries, a side salad with mango vinigrette, some sauteed string beans an half a mushroom and spinach panini. Then, deciding to take dessert home with us because we were full, we both ended up eating our very large slices of cake like 2 hours later! I can say I thoroughly enjoyed it, but I'm pretty full now. Maybe not a binge, but I think I've over eaten a bit

    I logged in tonight to record the food and beverages from my weekend feeling very guilty and somewhat bad about myself. Seeing your post helped me to try to turn this thinking around. It is acceptable to go over sometimes. I'm pulling it back together with a healthy well portioned dinner (I planned to skip dinner, but that is not the way to get back on track). I will go back to healthy food and portions and regain control.
    So glad you are here!
    Thanks

    Yay! Be gentle with yourself. Treat yourself the way you'd treat someone else going through this experience. You'd never be as hard on someone else as you are on yourself. You'd be understanding, empathetic, and supportive. Well, why not be that way with you too? :drinker:

    Finally! The most important part...I haven't had a gaming group in years.

    I wouldn't view that as a binge - just normal celebration. A binge to me is if you consume loads of the same type of food for the sake of eating it rather than for the pure enjoyment of having a few things you wouldn't normally allow yourself.

    Great definition!

    One-shots, with pregenerated characters. One was an epic-level D&D 3.5, one was a 7th level D&D 3.5, one was Star Wars Saga Edition, and the last was a Star Trek scenario using Savage Worlds rules. Good times. :bigsmile:

    It sounds awesome. The last time I managed to get some game time in was this past Christmas. Enough people came back to town for the holidays to get in two nights of D&D dungeon crawling goodness. I'm hoping that they can make it back this year as well. It's one or two nights, but it makes the long dry 'looking for game' times easier to stand. I'm glad you had so much fun.

    Sometimes the priority is the calorie deficit, sometimes the priority is good food and good fun with friends. As long as the calorie deficit wins out more often than not, I figure it's all good. :drinker:
