I've been doing good for 2 months now by cutting my calories... I lost 10 pounds so far.... and the scale has been saying 153 forever it seems.... so it looked like I was losing inches more so then actual weight, which was fine



But about 3 days ago... I had a cheat day, then the next day turned into a cheat day, then that following day also turned into a cheat day. I splurged on milkshakes, big meals, soda and cupcakes all broken up to 3 days worth.... that sound so obese of me lol... but it happened and I feel disgusted. Now, I don't think there was no way I could have eaten over 4000 calories... I truly doubt it... but I don't know for sure. And, its possible I could have.

Now, for the last two days I've been back to cutting... and as I look in the mirror, it looks like I gained some inches back. My back fat is the devil and I wish I could just cut it off and set it on fire... ughhhhh lol.

Did I screw up my journey with the 3 day cheat spree? I weigh 153 now, and want to go down to 135. I want to lose 8 pounds by next month... that's 2 pounds a week... I will even add cardio in... but did I screw up my metabolism or body routine?

    Don't give up! It happens to everybody, the important thing is to keep fighting :)
    Today, I just realized that in August it will be the 6th anniversary for me in counting calories. 6 years.... really!!
    I stopped watching my weight for 6 months or so, and it was not pretty.... I'm now counting calories again.
    Obviously we all have moments that are less good.... But the important thing is to keep going :)
    I wish you all the best.
