Okay so I know having a subway pizza was not the best idea, but I have to figure a different way to track. I am addicted to junk food. Yes I finally admitted it!!!!! What can I eat for the rest of the day. I'm over my 1200 cal by 65 cal already. HELP!!!

Well, you better get on a treadmill and burn yourself some dinner fast...0

You better get that hiney to the gym!!!!0

Simple. Exercise.
More calories!!
ETA - how is your daily only 1200?? I was over 1500 calories with less weight.0 -
Eat light then go get yourself some exercise calories to make up for it!0
-
I would exercise it off!0
-
First off, go exercise for an hour.
Do some strength training and cardio, so you can eat your exercise calories later!
Then maybe have some grilled/roasted chicken and salad with a vinaigrette or some steamed veggies!0 -
There are healthy choice meals that taste pretty good and are no more then 300 calories usually. Tomorrow you can just shave off the extra you ate today and start fresh! =]0
-
get on the elliptical trainer for 30 - 60 minutes. You'll be under your goal again and have calories to spare for dinner.0

Go exercise and burn some calories so you can eat dinner and stuff.. Jumping jacks burns about 300 calories for 30 minutes.. type in exercises and see what burns what and do it!!0
-
veggies, loads and loads of veggies. spaghetti squash and marinara either without meat or with 2 or 3 oz of ground turkey.0
-
I would definitely say exercise and why is your calorie limit only 1200?0
-
Definitely exercise...but try having a salad and fruit or some oatmeal for dinner..something light with only a couple hundred cals0
-
Eat a salad for dinner with maybe a little bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper with a piece of chicken breast. You can also eat as many vegetables (squash, mushrooms, asparagus, tomatoes, etc) as you want to fill up. Don't panic and allow yourself a day to mess up. It's progress not perfection.0
-
Seems like you have only one option and that is do something to work off those calories you went over. Maybe you should munch on fruit for the rest of the day if you don't want to do yourself completely in!
Good Luck!0 -
Exercise!
Don't use it as an excuse to eat more, but it will help for today. And use today as a learning tool -- you admitted that you know your dowfalls. Find healthier options to get you through the day.
This is a journey - :-)0 -
As everyone is saying, go for a walk, then do a little exercise (cardio) so you can earn some calories. Or, have a light dinner (300-400 calories), then burn it off later today by walking, riding a bike, etc. Just earn some more calories. Crisis averted.0
-
Have salads, fruit, whole grain toast with applesauce... if you go over, no big deal. Stagger your calories over the course of the week, and when these days happen you won't feel so bad.
Keep up the good work! One day of going over won't hurt you at all.
You have made me want a subway0 -
I manage to avoid this by figuring out first thing in the morning what I'm going to eat all day and logging it. I always leave a few extra calories for those afternoon munchies.0
-
Oh come on hun!! you know that you were going to go to Subway...its a little routine!!!
so change your routine. make a plan!!! otherwise you are going to be exercising crazily each and everyday :-)
Why did you go to Subway...lets have a little more information....are you at work and it is where you go for lunch???
Share and then everyone can help more x0 -
reiterating ... exercise, exercise, exercise.
Make something nice and light the rest of the day. I know that I can burn a few hundred calories easily on the treadmill or ellipitcal so if you have them at home or a gym membership I would be running there (hey, running gives you more calories too!)
And... remember this feeling. It's crappy to see those blaring red numbers. When I went out to eat last week I preplanned my meal and almost faltered until I remember those dreaded red numbers!0
