Guilt & then making up for it

If you go overboard one day (or maybe not even overboard, but let's say you purposely stray from your diet one day) --- do you make up for it the next day? Do you say to yourself, okay, you had fun eating that, but now you must work extra hard the next day?

Yes! Dh and I actually just made a huge breakfast for our friends...french toast, eggs, sausage and bacon. It was all sooooo good, but all I keep thinking is "ok, for the rest of the day I have to eat really well, or barely anything at all since I think I just consumed over 1000 calories lol". I've been trying so hard to lose 8 pounds...I keep going up and down 1 or 2 pounds...its so frustrating, but then I go and eat all this and set myself back again

Thats me! I went a little overboard yesterday (not bad...but not good either). So today I made sure to get to the gym and I'm eating extra healthy

Re: Guilt & then making up for it

i put on the "reset button " next day and just don't allow overindulgence to happen often

Re: Guilt & then making up for it

That's definitley me.. I think I ate way too much yesterday when my in laws were visiting us. I'm trying to be so good the next two days before I leave on vacation.

I'm hoping that while on vacation that I'll be extra strict on myself as well. The first week I'll not have a scale where we are staying but at least the second week they have a fitness room with a scale I can use to weigh in and such.
