Overeating... sort of

[littlefroggy 0]

I totally over ate today, but not compared to before.

I ate 1428 calories. That's about double what I had been able to eat up until now. I think my hunger kicked in and my stomach must have stretched. I'm still eating small quantaties but more often. Now I know I will have to watch it. Before I was worried about NOT ENOUGH CALORIES, now I need to make sure I get in GOOD CALORIES!

B- 1 turkey meatball (50 calories)

S- baked pita chips 228 (NOT A GOOD CHOICE!)

L- 2 chicken Satay (left over from a Thai restaurant) 270 calories

w/ peanut sauce 80 calories

S- candy pumpkins (why oh why did I buy those?) 150 calories

D- mini tacos 200 calories

S- more candy pumpkins 100 calories

S- more mini tacos 200 calories

Now, I realize I am still way under my calories... but I ate too many times and I should NOT have had candy!! Ok, now I know I will go get a fill sooner rather than later! I am dumping them in the trash and pouring old Soup on top of them!

Also, I didn't eat enough Breakfast (running out the door) and was hungry by 9:00 again but couldn't eat until my students had their snack at 11:00. That's when I pigged out on the pita chips.< /p>

Just move on. It's not a big deal. You will have days when you eat crappy. I find that if I concentrate more on my Protein intake that I have a better day foodwise.

I think the pita chips weren't any worse than the candy pumpkins and mini tacos (you mean like the ones that are party food? ) I think you need to eat more Protein and not skip Breakfast and the rest will be easier on you. HOWEVER one day of eating candy and baked chips and little tacos isn't going to ruin all your hard work. Just move on. As mistakes go, this was so minor!

I agree with the others. This was just a minor setback and you can just get right back on track. It may help to plan your meals the night before and keep the irresistable no-no's out of the house. Think more Protein with veggies and less carbs.

I overate yesterday myself!!! I still feel really bad about it!! I think I definitely need another fill!! I am also still trying to get my eyes to match my stomach size!! I think if I only had so much to eat in front of me, I would realize I don't need to eat so much! hopefully i can just move on from this!! and you too! :tt2:

I had a similar problem last Saturday, but I am back on the bus today . . . and eating as I should. One day doesn't hurt, it is only when it becomes frequent or habitual that you begin to suffer.

I was banded 20 Aug and right now I can eat a lot. I have to very careful not to eat too much..small plate, small spoon, sippy cup, I am using all the tricks. I can't have a fill until 1 Oct and I can't wait. When really hungry, I eat a package of Buddig Deli meats---9-10 gr of Protein and about 90 cal. It keeps me satisfied for quite a while. One day isn't going to hurt, just try to concentrate on Protein, protein protein and chew chew chew!
