I did that yesterday. Just reset again tomorrow x

Logically you are not huge after one day. As the PP says, try and treat it as one day and just move forwards. Don't be tempted to try to "compensate" tomorrow by unnecessarily restricting as that might be counterproductive.

Thanks. I was going to compensate tomorrow ! .. how would it be counterproductive?

It's not that compensating is counterproductive, but overcompensating by being too restrictive could be. i.e. deciding to restrict calories too low. Something that my brain often tells me to try when I feel I've had an uncontrolled day. But then the low calories the next day can lead to another uncontrolled day the day after that.

Op, are you on too low a dose, you shouldn’t have to rely on willpower.

I’ve had a bad day too, but off to Aqua Fit later. Sometimes I have to remind myself I’ve lost 3.5 stone since last June and a small packet of crisps and a flapjack over my ‘allowance’ won’t put that back on overnight.

@hidingmynamesake do you mean the wrong section? You can report your own opening post, choose Other and write a message to MN explaining and asking them to move it to the section that you wanted to post in.

I thought the same as you last week, only it wasn't a small packet of crisps and a flapjack.
It was a family sized bag of crisps, 2 cream cakes, a box of chocolates, 6 cheese rolls, a giant pizza and an entire carton of ice cream!😬(coz BEDs dont respect the weight loss!).😆
But I just started fresh the next day......ate a huge pack of nuts and more chocolate.....then started fresh the day after, again!
Been fine since then. I've dieted from a size 24 to a size 10 but food still trips me up at times.
