Thanks!!0 -
I need to remember this. I always get SOOOOOO down on myself and have MAJOR regrets when I have a bad eating day.0

I gain if I eat 2000 calories0

I had a bit of a freak out like that last weekend when i went out to eat at one of my favorite pizza places and ate way more than planned (darn you, yummy St Louis-style pizza!). Still lost a pound this week!0

Wow - really puts it into perspective - I AM going to put it on my fridge for reflection! Maybe seeing it will help me be less critical of my progress in general - I can forgive myself for many other mistakes in my life but my weight gain makes it much harder too look myself in the mirror everyday. I do feel so much better when I am working out - it helps me deal with those slip ups (or intentional pieces of cake!) without beating myself up so much. :happy:0

THANKS... I was feeling mad at myself for eating that "Frontega chicken Sandwich" yesterday from Panera Bread! Apparently, that sandwich did not completely do me in....... smile:0

Aww I wish my body burned that much!! I inevitably (and quickly) gain if I have anything over 1300 cals.0

love it, so very true!0

If you are eating a very low calorie diet (like waaay below your tdee or bmr) then you probably would gain a tad (most likely bloat though) but if you were to gradually increase your calories to a normal level it would probably even off a bit and your body wouldn't be so sensitive to calorie change. That's why I opted not to go the really low cal route because I didn't want to be stuck in that restrictive zone where if I splurge at all I instantly gain a million pounds. And 2000 calories was a generalized figure- the point was one "bad" day wont undue all your hard work and it's not worth stressing over0
