450 calories won't do too much damage (if ANY at all) for one day. Just relax and know that there is a tomorrow :)

Go exercise for an hour to burn it off instead of complaining about it. Like I like to say, talk talk talk but nooooo action.

 

One day won't hurt you at all. (:

You could exercise.. but don't if you don't want to because nothing will happen if you don't.

It's still early in the evening! Run up and down the stairs!

Yeah. Thats not a significant amount of calories to make you go backwards in any way!

If there is one thing I am learning from this website and life, it's that there are too many other things trying to beat us up in this world then food.  First of all drop calling yourself stupid!  Be kind to yourself.  450 calories is nothing in the scheme of things and like everyone has said you can burn it off.  Think of what or why you ate what you did and maybe you needed those extra calories.  Again, be kind to yourself. Every one is human here.

heyy, just turn it around-- be an optimist! =DD

 

think about this: some people hit a plateau when theyre on the same calorie  restriction for a while.

 

You probably did your body some good today, cause the extra 450 is getting your metabolism running, get it? Which means it might be even easier for you to lose weight later on! isnt that awesome?! cheat days are actually encouraged, cause your metabolism gets too used to your regular deficit, cheat days HELP you!

dont worry! everyone slips up, but i wouldnt consider this is as a slip up!

 

dont be so ":(" hehe, this was probably good for you. (do ya feel enlightened?)

before, i didnt have any cheat days at all, and now i give myself 2 per week (i dont binge, but i just stop myself from counting incessently and eat whatever in the world i crave!), and ive seen some better results. i feel so much better about myself too! =D

 

~hope this makes you feel better. ^___^

What is your daily calorie goal?

As others have mentioned, 450 calories is not a lot to go over.  Depending on how many calories you aim for each day, you probably just consumed your maintenance calories.

 

no help at all but you misspelled buy

it should be spelled by

sorry, schools in, im a perfectionist

hey thank you everyone for your replies, they're all very helpful :D according to online calculators i should eat 1,800 calories daily to maintain my weight but i would have eaten under that anyway- i think i posted because i felt angry! haha

thanks everyone
