10 day binge and no exercise.......+ 5 pounds later....now what?

I don't know what happened.  I simply fell off the wagon.  I was bitter at not seeing the results I wanted after two and a half months of diet and exercise and I gave up.  It did not help that my friend got lipo and looks fabulous and here I am working my butt off for over two months with little to show for it. 

I totally sabatoged myself and now I have to jump back on the wagon.  I hope that I will see some results this time because I tend to give up to easily.

Thanks for listening

I just did the same thing. A cheat day turned into two weeks of not caring at all. Here's to starting yet again ...

Cheers.  Now I don't know if I should start eating 1200 calories a day plus exercise or would that shock my body too much.  I am wondering if I should start at 1500 and work my way down to 1200 calories a day.

I did the SAME thing!!!  I was on vacation for the past 9 days and I ate at least 5,000 calories a day...if not more!!!!  8 pounds heavier now and getting back to my normal life.  I plan to just go back to my normal diet and exercise routine, I'm hoping that my 9 day binge shocked my metabolism a bit because I was on a 1 year plateau before this!  Today is a bit of a challenge for me because it's my Birthday and there is cake flying at me like nobody's business...but I do plan to have a nice long run today.  I really hope that I can get those 8 pounds off!!!  AHHHH  I could kick myself for eating as much as I did...but I sure did enjoy every last morsel! :-P  Bye bye cake and ice cream...oh and chips and doughnuts, yes pizza...goodbye to you too!

Wow, it's great to know that I'm not alone!  My little brother graduated on Sunday and I just got some of the pic back today...yikes!  I fell off of the wagon hard!  It's time for me to kick my self back into shape, so here I am...don't let me fall off again! :) 

Thanks!

1. Stop beating yourself up
2. Come up with an activity plan to work off the 5 pounds
3. Work it off and be happy

So you have to loose the same 5 pounds twice.  Live and learn.  Next time you'll know better than give in to that little (retarded) voice in your head that says "Go ahead.  You're not getting anywhere."
