    Some of my suggestions...

    The first thing you can do is review what you ate to get a better idea of where things might have gone wrong (and who knows you might have miscalcuated something).

    When you get done with your walk log in your exercise since that adds to your daily allowance.

    Try a light dinner - salad and some grilled chicken or turkey or tofu or soy stuff if you're a vegetarian.

    Last - it's OK, tomorrow is a new day :happy:

    My suggestion is to be easy on yourself. Everybody has days that are less than perfect. I tell myself my goal is progress, not perfection. Hang in there. A big part of emotional eating is beating ourselves up on our off days, when in reality, we need to stay motivated and start a new day tomorrow.

    Start logging what your gonna eat before you eat it!
    Get in the shower and clean your tub. That'll burn a lot and take your attention off of food.
