    Just chaulk it up that it is your cheat day and start fresh tomorrow. If you eat too little tomorrow it will start you on a binge that will not end. We all have these days. You just try not to make it an every day thing. That is how we got in this shape in the first place. Relax, don't stress about it. Maybe do a little extra exercise today and start fresh tomorrow. After all Rome was not built in a day. :wink:

    Don't Starve yourself tomorrow!!! Just next time limit yourself to say 2 pieces instead of eight! I once did that and now I limit how much I eat not what I eat.

    I am with everyone else. It happens to all of us and someone who says they have never binged until they were sick is pretty much in denial. I once ate a whole box of Lofthouse iced sugar cookies by myself and at 10 cookies in a package and about 140 calories to a cookie, that is 1400 calories I downed in nothing but pure sugar and fat. I have also eaten an entire package of Double Stuf Oreos myself. And a whole pan of brownies. Trust me, I am no stranger to the binge. Usually because I am stressed, or upset, or angry. Don't beat yourself up. Pick yourself up, wipe the sauce off your face and do better tomorrow.:happy:

    We have all definitely had bad days! Mine tend to be the worst when it is that TOM. I can just sit and eat/snack non-stop! DON'T starve yourself the next day, that will only make things worse and make it harder for you to get back on track. Just have it in your mind that you are going to start fresh the next day. Yesterday I ate bad and didn't even exercise, didn't even finish logging my food actually (My husband and I had date night, which only comes about once a year lol...so I didn't care what I ate! And we got home around 2am, so my sleeping was off too), but today is a new day and all you can do is start fresh! Don't feel bad, just keep moving forward :)

    Just like everyone else said. Call it a loss and start new tomorrow. Don't get discouraged, one day of bad eating will not ruin everything, just don't let it become a pattern.

    It happens! Your body isn't a robot; it doesn't add up every single calorie and remember it forever. One day is not going to ruin your progress, and often, won't even make a significant difference. This week, my boyfriend and I went out to see his voice teacher's band play in NYC. We haven't had a night out in years and went kind of nuts: 3 pitchers of Newcastle between us (we almost never drink anymore, so it was a rare treat), a shot of Jack Daniels before leaving, and a burger each from McDonalds on the way home (because when you're drunk at 2AM, it seems like a super idea). And how bad was the damage? Well, besides the hangover, I still lost 3 pounds this week.

    Don't beat yourself up about it. So you ate a lot of pizza, but you don't have to do it again or make a habit out of it. Something you do once isn't going to override or undo the things you do consistently every day. Weight loss, health, and life in general are not about perfection or punishing yourself. Take these things for what they are, simply actions/events and not judgments about who you are or what you're worth.

    Pick yourself up, dust yourself off and get back on track tomorrow. We have all done this at one time or another.

    What I find helpful is browsing through this message board for motivation. I love reading the success stories.

    Tomorrow is a brand new day. Just start fresh tomorrow. If possible, try to get in a good workout tomorrow, but don't starve yourself tomorrow...not worth it.

    One day won't hinder you much at all. Don't sweat it, just carry on.

    I am with everyone else. It happens to all of us and someone who says they have never binged until they were sick is pretty much in denial.

    Speak for yourself. I don't binge. There are those of us out here than can control ourselves.
    A whole pizza? You don't accidentally eat that much. Posting this on the forums isn't going to help you not eat next time. It will probably only reinforce your desire to actually with everyone saying "Oh, it's OK, we all do it".

    Hopefully you enjoyed every bite! Don't sweat it, don't under eat tomorrow. I had 3 slices last night, one more than I should have so I put in an extra mile this morning on the elliptical and ignored the scale knowing that for some reason pizza always makes me heavier the next day.

    Oh, why isn't there a like button??

    I've never binged until I was sick. It isn't okay, and we definitely don't all do it.

    The exact same thing happened to me yesterday, except it was a whole loaf of cheese sub...don't beat yourself up. Just make sure you exercise a little more tomorrow. =)
