Im dissapointed...

We all have times that we feel that way. You have to pick yourself up and realize today is a new day, and a new start. You can do this! Just make the choice one day at a time. We are all in this together!

Cut yourself some slack. Honestly, you are being unrealistic if you think you are going to eat perfectly healthy every day for the rest of your life.
You stayed within your calories, well bloody done!!!! Junk food is designed to make us crave more and more so you did brilliantly at not over eating. And... Slim people eat crap sometimes, they just don't over eat.
Today is a new day. You are doing really well, you do not need to be perfect.
Be sure to let us know how this weeks eating goes. I've had chocolate every day still, I'm a total addict, but I've cut down and lost half a stone in a week.
Keep your chin up and be proud of how well you're doing.

You're right .... you shouldn't be beating yourself up.

A weekend slip isn't so important in the long run. Remember, you're going for a new, healthy lifestyle. Not a diet ... but a program, a lifestyle. And you came right back here as soon as you were over the binge phase. That's awesome. You've already begun the transformation!.

You didn't really even slip! You stayed within your calorie goals. That is AWESOME!

Instead of looking back at the different diets you've been on thinking of them as failures .... count them as learning experiences. You learned how NOT to do it with each different one you experienced! So each of those stepping stones brought you closer and closer to being right here, right NOW.

My advice is to keep coming back to MFP and build a strong support network of people that you can talk to about anything. Always log your food because that will let you see patterns or realize you don't want empty calories. You want nutrition to strengthen your body and lose weight at the same time.

I know you can do it. I have faith in you.

Take care.

You need to allow yourself a cheat day or two otherwise you'll go mad!
Completely avoiding 'bad' foods is totally unrealistic. The idea here is to control your intake and not overeat!
I had a junk food weekend too but I really don't care. I'm just going to be more sensible during the week. It won't put me off of trying to lose weight still!
The point is, as long as you're only eating junky foods occasionally, you will still lose the weight.

Dude, you are right. You do suck at this and you make tons of excuses. Yes, you should beat yourself up about it. It's not healthy living. I know, great motivation speech isn't it. Wait it gets better.
We all suck at this, we all make tons of excuses and we all beat ourselves up about it...for about 2 minutes then we refocus. That's the difference with people that make big weight changes and LIFE STYLE CHANGES. Notice I didnt' say diet. A diet is something you start and stop. When you stop, you go back to the way you were eating and gain more weight then before.
I tell new people this...each meal is a battle...win more battles then you lose. Consistency is the key.
Look, I'm not saying you can never eat pizza, wings or beer again. (btw, lean steaks are ok. trim all visible fat), I'm saying get to your mini goals...2 week goals, 30 day goals and celebrate your accomplishment. Pizza is one of my favorite foods and it's my cheat meal most of the time.
Friend, your health depends on it. I know it's easy sitting from my chair but I was in your chair at 1 time. It only took 6 months for me to drop 60 lbs and I had cheat meals. You can do this. If you would like my help, friend me and I'm there for you.

Oh no! Please don't be down on yourself!

We all have bad days, and it's completely natural to be disappointed in yourself, but use that as motivation to move forwards and give this the best shot that you can. As someone has already said, you won't eat like an angel every single day for the rest of your life - as long as the good days outweigh the bad then you will be fine.

Look at your weight loss indicator - you've lost 12 pounds. I'd say that's something to be positive and proud about!!

Don't beat yourself up over this, best thing it that you have noticed what has gone wrong and now you can go forward with a plan so it doesn't happen again.
Why don't you make a timetable? Sounds childish but it's helped me before. Just put in byour working hours and then all of your exercise/dinner around that?

Just an idea

well done with the weight loss - I'm like you I really hate weekends - I spent this weekend cleaning & housework cos I was afraid to sit down and let the old habits creep up & before I'd know it I'd have eaten the days calories & be still searching for something else.
I also have a diary where I write calories & exercise from each day just before I go to bed - I've started writing in the corner how many good days I've had & so far it 9 Good Days to Me that way if I have a bad day I can see that its only 1 day and I can move on from it
I read this on someone elses page ................if you had 1 flat tyre would you slash the other 3 .............. bad days are part of this journey its what you do the next day that counts :happy:

I´m new here, and I´m writing a blog with a daily tip on how to keep fit, and just yesterday I wrote about how indulging a wee bit every here and there is useful for keeping a diet on the long run... So, good for you staying within your calorie allotment! And congratulations for caring about your health and nutrition, at the same time... It´s so important to take care of your health (keeping sodium within limits to take care of blood pressure, for example)
So, I agree with the rest who answered your post, every day is a chance for a fresh new start!
