I cheated for Easter

So...we all know that holidays are super hard. I went 225 calories over on Friday bc I went out with some friends that I only see a few times a year but I got back on track for Saturday. Then today...Easter...I decided that I wasn't going to worry about calories, I was just going to enjoy the time with my family and not get on everyone's nerves by talking about how I couldn't have anything on the menu that I like and so on. Well...I just couldn't stay away from MFP for a whole day so I decided to go ahead and enter everything I've eaten. I'm 216 calories over again!...I would normally go out an do some jogging or bike riding but the weather is horrible so I'm stuck inside. I know that I'll get back on track for the rest of the week but I'm so worried that I've messed up any weightloss that could have happened this weak!...I'm just feeling so guilty :ohwell:

Any advice?

    Clean the house! I indulged a bit at a family dinner tonight, so I slapped on my runners, my workout gear, and iPod and cleaned the house a good clip! Now I feel great because the house is clean, and the I feel better (I'm not talking about scurbbing toilets, but you know - everything where it belongs, clear off all surfaces, vacuum...)

    Thanks everybody! I'm glad I'm not the only one who fell off the wagon! ... I did what you said and did a bunch of crunches and cleaned the house. I'm not sure how it will affect my week but I guess I'll see on Friday! Thank you again...I feel a lot better!
