I had my cheat meal last night and I am paying for it.....ate 4 bigass slices of pizza and downed a bottle of wine.

Yep I hit the scale and my stomach hates me.

I stayed under my TDEE by 100 calories though :)

I did workout before hand as well, plus I am going on a Crazy hike tomorrow....just feel gross at the moment.

    Its just one day in a long line of days feeling awesome!

    My weight is up too and I actually did really great staying at my cut hitting close to macros. I feel the frustration today. All work and no progres. :( not sure if I should just keep on or make some changes. Feeling like I'm not doing it right or something. My vlcd friends are posting losses, only gains for me. Sadface.

    Done that a couple times...one day I think I'll learn that it's just not worth it. :) Lots of water and time.

    somehow, it still surprises me when a man claims to have a 'fat day'. LOL! You just rarely ever hear them say it! I love this forum...everyone is so forthright. :happy:

    FaT day here too. So thirsty, I bet I've already drank a gallon of water so I'm guessing I'm retaining water.

    You are doing brilliantly! Look at you previous posts to remember!! :-))
    One day/ cheat meal won't make you fat... But maybe the depressant qualities of vino plus maybe a carb/sugar crash after the pizza together might have left you feeling a little less resilient? Tomorrow is a new day on your journey :-)

    I had one too a couple of days ago at Applebees. It was gross and high calorie...that's what I get for not planning. And I felt it in my body that day and the next, I just felt gross. Good news? The next day and today I've been eating a bit better, and going on a few short walks. Baby steps for me, but just goes to show you can always get back on the horse :)

    Having a "cheat night" and still stayed under TDEE?! That is a victory in itself!! Im sure the change was just due to sodium, etc.

    ^agree^ ...

    Your doing amazingly well and if you don't have a blow out once in a while you will prob end up binging one day cos you haven't have those things for a while ... like you said it was a fat day!!!! not a fat life!!!! ...

    Amazing how one meal can do it to us... enjoy your hike!

    Yeah - I agree. That's pretty awesome for a cheat day. I bet your hike will lift your mood immensely!

    I'm right there with you. Mine wasn't a cheat day but three days of being out of town for work. I try to bring "good" food with me but there's only so much I can pack. I end up eating at the hotel restaurant or some other restaurant. I try to make good choices but sometimes I can't resist temptation.
