Overdid "Cheat Day"

I had an extremely stupid weekend. I for one am going to put it behind me. Try not to beat myself up over it and start back up on the right track tommorrow. Not sure if my diary is public but take a look. it will prob make u feel better. Lol. Tommorrow is a new day and every meal is a new meal

Who knew Cheetos cost so many calories! Don't worry about it..

Learn from it, don't beat yourself up, and move on. Just remember, tomorrow is a new day. We've all had these days, I promise.

I had a terrible day last Wednesday... TERRIBLE!! So much sodium and fried food I felt so sick. Thursday I felt awful and Friday wasn't much better. I just kept drinking water, did lots of cardio and got back to my normal eating. On Thursday I was up 2.5 lbs and it took until today to get back to my normal weight!!

It was just one day. Just get back to normal tomorrow -- and drink LOTS of water!

bad days happen to everyone. just start tomorrow fresh, don't try and compensate for eating so much today, just eat normally tomorrow, and move on.

and like someone else said, drink water, and lots of it. you'll be fine

You know what you can do to fix it? Wake up tomorrow with a positive attitude. Learn from this binge. Accept that you've done it, accept that you'll probably want to do it again. But know that next time you will think about it (even for a split second more than you did today) and know that you will understand the consequences.

Get up tomorrow and try to be better. Don't flog yourself at the gym, or starve yourself for a week. These things got you to where you are, and you don't want to be there any more.

Plus... did you enjoy it? You might not be enjoying it now, but I'm sure you enjoyed it at the time. You will find other ways to enjoy yourself in time...

This is one of my worst day's ever.
I was doing so well, and now feel like a FAT PIG!
Just look at my diary.
And I have a huge headache from all that sugar, what can I do to fix this extremely stupid day?

Thanks. Any advice/support would be appreciated

l looked at your diary and it was pretty awesome. Make sure you're drinking plenty of water (not more than usual if you're getting 8 glasses per day though) just to stay hydrated.

And most of the advice is right on. There's nothing to "do" except move on and maybe analyze how/why you binged. Although... I just looked back a few days and your diet is pretty high in sugar and candies/chocolates.

Honestly, you can't do THAT bad in one day. I mean, unless you're some kind of food eating monster, you're going to be fine. You have to eat 3500 calories over your BMR to gain a pound. So... probably the WORST you could do is gain a lb. Just forgive yourself and move on.

Correction, you have to eat 3500 calories over your total daily calorie burn. That would be your BMR plus the calories of your daily activity, plus any extra activity like exercise you did. You ate approximately 3500 calories, lets say your daily maintenance is 1600 (it might be higher or lower but lets say it is 1600) that means you ate 2900 calories over, that is assuming you did not do any exercise which would lower that number. Now realize that is not even one pound of fat. Add to that the fact that you have nicely topped up your leptin levels, and you can now more easily lose fat in the days, even next week or two, than you did before this day.

One note, DON'T weigh yourself tomorrow or the day after that as you will be retaining water which will make it look like you have gained a lot, you have not it is just water. Drink lots of water, go back to your normal eating and exercise, then weight after at least 3 days.

Most of all, don't beat yourself up. That serves no purpose.

I'm all for being supportive but let's not go overboard.

I saw your diary. And we all have bad days. but I think it may be because you deprive yourself of these foods, so then when you do have them you tend to over do it.

I saw the exact opposite. (At least for the past week). It looks like you're eating chocolate or candies or chips/cheetos everyday. These are foods that are very sweet and high in sugar while being very low in satiety which makes them easy to binge on. If you're eating chocolate or chips everyday it's easy to forget what you're doing and eat more than you should.
