Indulge day
Well, today was my indulge day. No, I didn't buy new outfit or shoes. I ate without counting calories today. My sister made some MOngolian food, and I haven't had it for so long. It was so good. It was beef and rice noodles fried and steamed rice on the side. I also had some choco pie, it is actually korean desert. We have it back home, but I found a store that sell it here. I used to feel so bad for overeating, but I come to realize that I am human and there are times I will have that day. So, I decided not to beat myself over it. I will workout tomorrow as usual and will go back to my healthy eating. And no time I will go back to where I was. :cool:

Don't beat yourself up. Enjoy your day and put it behind you ;)

Cheat day!
I do the same thing. Tomorrow....Wednesday...I eat without counting calories to relieve myself a little from all the stress of eating healthier and counting all of what I eat. It has worked...since I so far have lost 50 pounds.
Whatever works for you, then it is all right. I usually have a McDonalds deluxe breakfast, a venti frappuccino, and for dinner, a low fat entree with an alcoholic drink. I don't go overboard....but I try to have more things that I do not have throughout the week and that I crave. 24 pounds to goal. |
Good for you! I hope you enoyed all that good food. We all need a day off now and then.

I have a cheat meal once a week. I dont' go overboard on it but it really helps me get through the rest of the week!
|
I feel like may be I went overboard today, but its alright. I will put today behind and move on and keep working hard to meet my goal. Its been long time since I ate without counting and without any worries. And may be that is making me feel that I overate!!! Anyways, I am glad to hear from you ladies.

Having a cheat day can backfire and become a cheat week, cheat month etc. Why couldn't you just have a small portion of each dish. That last bite tasted the same as the first!

I didn't intend to start out as a cheat day, but given the way it's going, I think I'm just gonna chalk it up to one. My friend stopped by and cooked breakfast, then I just had to do Starbucks (I just looked it up, one caramel apple cider and one cheese danish = 900+ calories...*sob*)...going out to lunch too....ouch. And dinner not planned.
I am going to the store today as well -- so after an indulgence day I can at least make sure I have my healthy stuff back in the house and get back on track tomorrow. :) |

I like to the way youj think. Its just something I need to learn how to. I always and often deprive myself, and it seems to me that it is my problem for over splurging once I do it. I always look at it as an cheat meal and will say to myself I am not going to eat a pizza for a while so lets have some more... etc. I know that deep down that its life and I will have slice of pizza or two here and there. Well, I just wanted to say that I need to adjust to think of it is a part of life. http://www.3fatchicks.com/weight-tra...3/125/138/.png |
