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.0

Don't beat yourself up over it and pick back up tomorrow.0

Thanks guys0

dam*,
that was me yesterday. After I looked at the floor and realized "yup... I just had 5 double cheeseburgers from Mcdonalds and nobody or nothing is stopping me.." I felt like crap afterwards just because it was 5 mother effing double cheeseburgers from mcdonalds lol
I am making up for it by not eatin alot tomorrow, and Going to be doing alot of bikeriding0 -
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.0

yeah for me i realize i cant even have one bite... i just cant control it at all.. i eat one bite then sudddenly its the whole bag.0

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:0

usually i would give up at this point cuz i failed one day but tomarrow is a new day you guys made me feel alot better thanks !!0

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 forward0

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.0

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.0 -
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.0 -
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.0
-
I just had a pint of ice cream and a large piece of coffee cake. I'm going to workout for 2 hours and 40 minutes tonight to make up for it :-/0

One day won't hinder you much at all. Don't sweat it, just carry on.0

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".0 -
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.0

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.0 -
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.0
-
Don't feel bad about it. You had a pizza and you enjoyed it. DON'T beat yourself up or eat less tomorrow. Just start fresh tomorrow It's okay to splurge once in a while.0
-
Tomorrow you start fresh; no point in worrying about something you can't change now. At least you choose good toppings pepperoni and bacon is my favorite0

I must being having one of those emotional woman days! Your literally post brought tears to my eyes. If there was something that I couldn't control my portions on I think I would blacklist that food entirely. I have never had a problem with binging and maybe that is not a healthy attitude, but I am too much of a control freak to allow my food to dominate me in that way. Maybe only order a slice of pizza from somewhere and there wouldn't be any more available to eat would be a better way to go?
I guess what I am saying is you need to figure out a coping mechanism that will work for you in the future so you don't end up where you are at today. Now pick yourself up, go forward, and do better. Hugs!0 -
Remind yourself that slips happen. Old habits die hard, and don't beat yourself up over it. It's not like you can go back in time and not eat the pizza. All you can do is let it go, start fresh tomorrow, and try make a different decision next time.0

great advise, chaulk it up as a cheat meal ...tomorrow is a new day. ALL GOOD WOO SAA!!0 -
I learned it's not good to totally deprive yourself of some things you like. That way you won't have such strong cravings for them. Try and eat your food slowly and totally chew everything. When you wolf stuff down, it doesn't give you time to start feeling full so you tend to eat more. What I do is always try and save some pizza for the next day. (I can eat it cold for lunch). Also, if you just put one slice on your plate at a time, that can also slow you down a bit so you start feeling full before the pizza is all gone.
As far as giving up, don't quit over just one meal. You did great for 4 entire days before that. A splurge meal once in a while won't totally undo a dozen disciplined meals. You could try setting aside one splurge meal per week and maybe instead of all 8 slices, just have 5 or 6.
Hopefully you can find my ramblings helpful. Good luck in your journey.
You can do it!0 -
Oh my god you high horse people. . .obviously beating herself up and making herself feel terrible is going to be really helpful. That's always a motivator for positive change.
OP: Are you eating enough calories? Do you have a binge eating (or other) disorder? Are you normally so hungry?
When I want pizza I get myself a (large) brown rice tortilla shell and coat it in olive oil (I don't like red sauce), light mozzarella, some slices of fresh mozzarella balls, and basil (if you like tomatoes, throw those babies on there) and put it in the toaster oven. Even if you eat the whole thing it's 356 calories total.0 -

Just count it as a learning experience and know your limits.....Tomorrow is a New Day...Everyone falls from time to time...but it doesn't matter how many times or how bad you fall...what matters is that you have the strength to GET BACK UP and try again
Dont beat yourself up just keep on pushin...0 -
The first thing you need to do if forgive yourself and put that in your past, skipping your meals tomorrow will not make up for the pizza you ate. Lesson learned and move forward! You have a ton of support here and together we will help each other through these bumps in the road!
