I ate 3000+ calories today during Buffet! I feel so bad...:(
I feel so guilty....
I hate this sickly feeling, I'm so full and bloated...
Most of the 3000 calories was desserts, mousse, pie, tart, 4 scoops of ice cream, chocolate syrup, Cheesecake, tart, cream pies...AHHH ><
I ate like 10 pieces of sushi with tuna and jellyfish too, lots of carbs, and no vegetables...
Then ate like 25 strawberries (large red ones) ...
Then that was just Lunch....Dinner I didn't skip, had normal veggies and fruit.
Ahhh
What should I do tomorrow? Just need some support...Will I gain weight now or tomorrow?
Just get back on the bandwagon, the binge is over and done with.
Onward and Upward!!!
you shouldn't do anything differently tomorrow than you normally would, you probably OVERATE by a max of 1000 calories (meaning OVER maintenance of ~2000) so you gained a max of a little more than 1/4 pound. that's nothing and not worth fretting about. you ate the food and it happened, allow yourself to have enjoyed it instead of ruminating on it and making it a bad thing.
not to be rude, but arent u underweight and/or trying to gain weight? even so, its ok, it hapens to us all!
mmm sounds yummy...
you should relax. start fresh tomorrow.
Hi
Don't worry too much about it, it takes about 3500 calories above maintenence levels for a 1lb gain. look at your calorie intake/deficit/excess over a week rather than one day to put it in perspective.
It was my sons birthday on Wednesday so ate out, my calorie intake was about 1000 over my maintenence level (ahh! steak, new york style cheesecake ). looking over the last week and factoring in my other deficit days, (Sun - Sat) my average is still a deficit of 200 cals. admitedly not my target which is 500 - 1000 but still a deficit. (Looking at a 1-2 lb loss per week for me)So my loss slows down a bit but the big picture still looks good.
A big blow out won't break a diet, we just have to try not to make a habit of it.
all the best

I'm at around 19 for BMI, not underweight...definitely don't want to gain any weight I lost so hard over the last 7 months!
And this morning I had a 600 calorie breakfast...Yesterday's binge is carrying onwards! Yikes!
Aw thanks people, yes, I calculated my deficit and it's around 150 cals for the week...so much less, but...I'll try and eat a lighter lunch/dinner!
You have a BMI of 19 and you're trying to lose weight? 
Weird thing is that if I eat at maintenance level, around 1700 cals, I end up gaining pounds in days....The only way to maintain seems to be a small deficit! Why is that?
if your not very active, you'll have lots of food still in your digestive track along with the water needed in the digestion process. Hence the scale will tell you have a weight increase but it's not like you've gained fat or anything. Your worrying too much about nothing.
ok i just got back from spring break and i ate awful the whole time! i love to work out and i like the taste of healthy foods (im not picky) but i cant stop overeating. Its becoming an issue...i am going to try really hard to have portion control for a month (if i have a goal i will be more motivated) does anyone want to do it with me? every time i mess up i will make myself admit it on this blog (it will be embarrassing if it keeps happening, so that could help me stick to it) beach weather is coming up and i really want to feel good! i need to watch my portions and not eat crap. no excuses! anyone want to try?
I definitely am up for that too, eating healthier...
I can't seem to stop squeezing in little snacks that makes me go over limit..
