    Good thing you'd been to the gym beforehand! What if you'd eaten all that without having had an awesome burn first? (It still wouldn't have been end of the world, but): Yay you for going to the gym. :flowerforyou:

    Everybody makes mistakes. As someone else said, "tomorrow is another day", so get back on and resolve to do better then. It takes 3500 calories to equal one pound, so you probably didn't eat THAT many cookies and ice cream.

    One thing that I do that works for me (everybody is different) is to count the cost FIRST. I try to look at what the calorie cost is of something I'm thinking about consuming and only then do I make a decision as to whether or not I think it's worth it to eat. If I don't do that, I find I make impulsive choices and I'm sorry about them later. When I make the conscious choice, I usually don't eat the thing and I feel good about it later.

    Just a thought. Consistency in the long haul will determine your success, not one bad day. Go get 'em tomorrow!

    Dust it off and keep going. :) I "totally blew it" for about 4 days straight last week due to my father's sudden death. Pie, cake, peanut butter, sweets, you name it, I ate it. Took me a couple days to fully drop the water retention. Got back on track and dropped 2 pounds this week. I just like to think I shocked my metabolism into overdrive, lol.

    The key word in the title of your topic is "today." Tomorrow is a new beginning.
