Christmas guilt

4 replies

StuH1 · 26/12/2024 20:37

Why am I feeling so guilty for having 2 days of eating what I want?
As I've said on a couple of threads I've lost 9 st 10 pounds so far with another 4 st to go so I was determined to have a few days off as I feel I've earned it. While I've not gone totally crazy or eaten anywhere near as much as I would have in years gone by I have a nagging guilt and worry I have screwed it all up.
I have booked a spin class for next week when they start again so definitely planning to get back on it in the new year, I'm probably just being a bit precious maybe?

I hear ya, OP.

Bought myself a Christmas Colin from M&S to enjoy with the Outnumbered, only to realise it has 460kcals so I’ve put it back.

Hard to balance not ruining your hard work with not tormenting yourself.

I hear you OP

I thought I was doing pretty bloody well yesterday, till around this time of night - I raided everyones chocolates

But whilst I was beating myself up for it this morning, I realised I was at full tilt yesterday - getting the dinner cooked, laying the table, washing up as I went along etc, so time I sat down for dinner - not hungry, picked around it - the nice bits, avoiding the veggies. So of course I was hungry later

Today, back to normal. Got hungry and made myself up a plate of cold meats and salad around 2pm, then had Christmas dinner again, but I ate more then yesterday, so not a mission am I looking snack food

So yesterday was yesterday. Cant change that but I can go back to the healthier calorie controlled eating I usually stick to

Im not beating myself up for pigging out for a day. Its one day

Give yourself a break- you have done so well.
But the maths is cruel.
8 Terry's chocolate orange segments = 30 minute spin class
Brutal
