what can you do? just don't dwell on it and enjoy your saturday. it's just one day right?
I wouldn't worry about it.  We all have those slip up days.  Just try eating healthy food the rest of the day and exercise.

I just did the same thing!
And today Im supposed to go out to lunch with friends!!!
Im screwed!!
It's not that bad, what did you two eat?

Your metabolism will thank you by running at full speed much sooner, at least that will take care of some of the 700 cals.

However I would reccomend to not eat more than arround 300-400 cals for breakfast. As for you two: Avoid drinking cals, drink water instead and enough of it. Also try skipping the snack then you should have no problem with a 600-800 cals lunch and a 400-600 cals dinner.

You'll be at arround 1700-1800 cals at the end of the day which should still be under your normal expediture, meaning you'll still have a deficit for today, just not a as big one as on normal days...
you're all doomed, expect to be atleast two pounds heavier by tomorrow
Hahahahaha to anthony's comment.
I've been there though, don't feel so bad!
make it a maintenance day and don't worry about it. 
Wow, I did the exact same thing. I just went crazy and couldn't control myself. Excuses.. excuses, -cough-.

Of course the worse things;

chimichanga, bread, peanut butter, peanut butter special k bar, salsa, chips, oreo cakester,  & ice cream +  cone

a grand total of 1214 calories, all before noon. Not even including my breakfast. I literally have no clue what came over me, lol. Whatever, tomorrow is another day =]
Haha, I did that today. I had a free morning this morning and I was watching a movie and ended up eating 8 servings of cheerios (god i love cheerios!) and some cherries. Add in the milk... and I had to go out to lunch with my friends today and I only let myself have an iced coffee. It didn't help that the group had decided to go to roundtable today.  I also upped my run so try and compensate for the inevitable calories later in the day... I was really mad at myself though. At least it was all healthy stuff i guess...  :/
I wouldn't worry as long as you don't go over your limit for the rest of the day.

But as for me, I love breakfast and consume most of my calories in the morning anyway.  I've still lost weight consuming about 700 cals by noon every single day.

I did the same thing today *lol*. But tomorrow I'll have cereal instead of the breakfast I had today.

You can just have a light lunch or dinner. Cool

Hi!  My reaction would be the opposite:  Yay!  I ate only 700 calories this morning!  I've been going up to 1200 by 10:30AM!  Breakfast is my favorite.  I'm on Amy's Diet Plan now, so I'm trying to keep calories to a minimum.
Well I am in the same boat as you and I am so depressed.  I can't get my act together and day after day I say I will.  And the worst part is now I don't feel well as I have put back on the 50 lb.s I lost and feel bloated horrible and everything and everyday I say today is the day to get back on the train and everyday I dissapoint myself.,... I feel so overwhelmed and bad I can't stand it.  I start every morning with I am going to do this today and then I fall apart... I can't hang on...  help my friends - any tidbits of advice you can provide would be so appreciate!!
Oh Hope! Its ok! I havent gained back 50 lbs (only 10) but I kinda know what you feel like. What I find works is self motivation, or as I like to call it, Brainwashing. You have to re-brainwash yourself. When you first stared your journey you kept on telling yourself "I can do this, I enjoy this, This is worth it, I will look amazing." and then more you told yourself that, the more you belived it. I do the same thing for working out.  Deep down in my gut I know I really dont like to work out (hence why I never worked out before in my life) but I had to brainwash myself into thinking that I loved it so I would get off my ass and go kill myself. When It started to hurt and when I was about to die I would chant in my head "I LOVE THIS OH GOD THIS IS GREAT! YEAH GO GO GO" And I would give'r for the rest of my 30 min.

Its hard. I know. Especially with food and watching Tv. I HATE YOU KFC COMMERCIALS! But whenever I see them and I feel that lurching in my stomach and my tastebuds start to swell up with the thought of "mmm, crispy and juicy.." I start to shout in my head "EW NO THATS GROSS! Think of all the Fat and Salt in there! EW EW EW".

Man is it ever hard lying to yourself sometimes.  But after a while you get good at it and it starts to get back into a frame of mind...


I really hope I helped. I feel better writing this down because I was in a nich before (2 weeks of not working out and eating whatever I wanted... think 3000cals a day. Woo) and I feel that its time to get out of it now. I still have a two months till my brothes wedding (my goal date of getting toned and ect)... so its not that bad.

BACK ON THE BAND WAGON AND LOVIN IT!! (I think I can I think I can I think I cant I-mean Can!!! CAN!!! CAN!!!)
just eat a big salad for lunch :) (dressing on the side of course)


Whenever i overeat, i do 1 hour of cardio that same day, do that, and i bet you won't gain a pound ^_^

I came home from school today and I ate a 110 cal cereal + milk, a small banana, a mango, peach yogurt, 2 slices of cheese and a medium sized turkey and sundried tomato wrap.

 

I feel like I just ate a gallon of ice cream even though I haven't touched the stuff in over 5 months.

 

I guess it was because I only had an orange and a turkey wrap without the meat or the cheese (which was basically just the tortilla wrap and a tomato)

 

The moral of the story is: Eat more throughout the day and you won't feel like a whale when your body shouldn't even be having so many calories. (3:30 in the afternoon)
