just went on an eating binge :(

Bumps in the road and binges do not mean that you have failed. They happen all the time. Don''t worry about it.

Maybe try and figure out why you binged. Are you getting enough calories? Are you allowing yourself to eat what you want? Are you restricting too much or putting food into "bad food categories"? Maybe it was an emotional thing? If you figure out the problems you can prevent it from happening again.

Tomorrow just start again with your normal routine. You are going to be fine.

I've been there... especially when I'm "dieting". I have to keep reminding myself everyday that I'm not on a diet. I'm trying to get healthy. True, part of that is to lose weight, but the goal is moderation and health. I ask "would my healthy me make this choice?" The tough part is being honest with yourself about what your version of healthy is and not being too strict. I work things like birthday cake, girlscout cookies, coffee creamer and wine into my daily calories at least once a week. I don't expect there will be much more room for these things in maintenance mode, so I think it's a good place to start living a healthy lifestyle. It can be done, it just needs to be in moderation, one serving and only once in a while. Since starting this, I've only had 2 small binges and neither of them put me over on my calories. It's the balance I've found to work for me and I've been losing every week so far.
Today, you broke your caloric limit. The good news is you haven't ruined anything. Tomorrow, you get a new one. Please don't try to 'fix' what has been broken today, it can't be undone without drastic measures just as equally damaging as the binge itself. Just move forward with your head high and a resolve not to break the caloric limit tomorrow. You are ready for this change or you wouldn't be here.

Relax. I've had four or five binges over the past few month and I'm still down 35lbs and ongoing. As long as you forgive yourself and get right back on track the next day all is good. I think sometimes days like this are actually necessary for sustaining weight loss.

As most everyone has said, a spike day here and there is good for you. About once a month, I have an eff it day...I eat whatever sounds good, but I log it and I make sure that I up my workouts a little the rest of the week. When I do that, it usually kick starts me, and I get another good loss. It's been working well for me for awhile. Just drink lots of water and up your workouts, but don't fast.

Must be one of those days. TOM here. Blahh. Start fresh tomorrow! That's what I am doing.

You're only human. The key is to only have these days very, very infrequently. As others have said, drink lots of water and make sure you eat very healthily for the next few days. These kinds of days can sometimes jumpstart a lagging metabolism so you may find you've actually lost weight after a week or so.

You can't take it back now. Feeling bad about it isn't going to change anything. It would stay off the scale for a few days though because you will be up most likely from water weight and that will only make you feel worse. It was one day and you are not a bad person and your goals and hard work have not been derailed. Like a lot of people said, it might actually help you in the end because your body isn't used to it. I would just try not to binge too often. I'm having one of these days myself. Tomorrow is a new day; start over.

it happens to all of us. Brush yourself off and start over again tomorrow. One day at a time.

Just know your next meal will be on track! Tomorrow will be a fresh start! It's important to take a day off from dieting anyway. So, today was your day off!
