    Just decide to do better... and do it... one meal at a time. Whenever I'm coming off a bad day I try to work out extra to make up for the previous day's overages. Saturday I was above maintenance by about 400 calories so I ran a 7K yesterday and burned an extra 400 calories (in addition to my normal deficit) to make up for it. Good luck!

    Yep, just start up again. You can't change the past, but you can decide now not to repeat it. Once you decide to do something, start right away; otherwise, it's easy to put it off again. Remember the procrastinator's motto: "Never put off until tomorrow what you can put off until next week."
