    Don't look at it as starting over, that implies that you failed or quit. Look at it as getting up and continuing on.

    Also make sure to learn from it, mistakes are a great way to learn.

    Agreeing with @kimny72, if you log it into your diary, even now after the fact, the process is still going. Just do your best to put a number on everything. Avoiding doing this is passing up an opportunity to learn from it.

    The numbers come and go, but if you have a set of habits and routines that constitute the weight loss process, you are never off track, off program or cheating. The only way to cheat is quit.

    To me the process is plan, execute, log and evaluate and problem solve. It’s not possible to do weight loss without mistakes and lapses. No human undertaking is error free. Weight loss is problem solving. What happens next time?
