Around Christmas this past year, I did. It was the only time since being banded I actually had a gain (about 7 pounds). For about a week I ate pretty much anything and everything I wanted. It wasn't good.

Just get back on track before you sabotage all the hard work you've done so far.

Cheers. Mass guilt has ensued therefore tomorrow the key word is deficit. I just NEEDED it lol

It happens to the best of us. Just remember tomorrow is a new day. Also can I make a suggestion? The Atkins peanut butter cups are amazing! 160 calories for 2 but 2g of protein I love them but I eat them frozen!

One day at a time. Log it and move forward.

coffee ice cream with hot fudge 2 days in a row. throwing them both out tonight.

One days not going to hurt you. Just have a good day tomorrow.

I struggle with full time deprivation. So I eat everything - chocolate, chips, whatever. But I portion it out and savour it. I had a tim tam this morning. For those who don't know what that is, it is a chocolate covered cookie made of HEAVEN. But I can actually have just one and say to myself, if I ever REALLY feel like another, I can always go to the shops and get one. And yet, when the time comes, I just don't, because I don't feel that sense of 'loss'.

I'd rather eat a little of any one thing that a lot of it in a binge. I think breaking the habit of binging is fundamental to being able to live with the band long term, imo.

one meal or bad day wont make one gain a zillion pounds

it constantly eating and eating more calories than you burn off...........do better now

you have/are doing well-----i dont see that changing (i love chocolate too) :wub:

Hello everyone. Today marks my first month postop and I have not eaten anything considered "bad" or junk food. However, there are 100 calorie snacks in my house. They consists of chocolate chip cookies, and some other stuff. The good news is that I have never been tempted, but if I ever am tempted, I don't think I'll feel guilty to eat a pack. I can simply eat it and go to the gym and burn the extra 100 calories in 30 minutes. It's feels great to have a "plan" that won't sabotage my weight loss.

Love the TimTam comment lellow my brother has just started working at Arnotts, I've told him I do not want a care package! One timmy is never enough!
