Zerxen Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 (edited) So on the 30th of October, me and my family celebrated the birth of my sister; in doing so, we ate breakfast at Denny's and bought cake, ice cream, and sushi. As someone who had lost 30 lbs recently from religious dieting and excercise, I decided to make this my first official cheat day, not meal. It just so happens Halloween would come, leading me to binge a second time, eating leftover cake and consuming DOZENS of pieces of chocolate. I am well aware that weight gain doesn't come instantly- it comes when excessive eating becomes a habit. I must've consumed 3000+ calories in each day need some advice in recovery from this act. Should I just resume my normal eating habits? As a 5 foot 5 and 135 lb male, I generally consume anywhere from 1800-2200 calories on a given day, though I am not sure what is my exact maintanence.

Gokai Doctor Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 Just getting back into eating healthy meals and exercising is really the only thing I can suggest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zerxen Posted November 1, 2016 Author Share Posted November 1, 2016 Just getting back into eating healthy meals and exercising is really the only thing I can suggest. Figured. Will any weight gain (non water weight) come up from my actions? I swear, this has the most I have eaten in months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zerxen Posted November 1, 2016 Author Share Posted November 1, 2016 bruh even by the flawed scale that is BMI youre doing alright at 5'5 135 are you sure youre not being a little too self-conscious? come on treat yoself I can gain 5 lbs and would still be at a healthy weight. As an asexual male with a very narrow range of interests, one of the few things on life I derive pleasure from is food. I should be worried since if this type of behavior occurs frequently, I may gain back the weight I lost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pride Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 what does your sexuality or range of interests have to do with anything lol anyway look i get it you worked hard to get down to your current weight and dont wanna go back, you obviously take some measure of pride in your figure and i assume you were overweight before due to lack of self control which is why youre so worried now to which i say dont worry about it, if you had the discipline to lose 30 lbs you have the discipline to eat right do a little extra working out if you really need to feel like doing something to scare off the calories Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, should I just move back to my regular habits or is there anything I must compensate for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zerxen Posted November 1, 2016 Author Share Posted November 1, 2016 you have nothing to worry about, go about your normal business 3500 calories above maintenence for weight gain right? Will my actions cause gains to happen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricaofRenais Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 I don't think you will gain that much weight from only two days of not keeping an eye on what you eat, just go back to normal in terms of what you have been doing and maybe take a couple of extra walks if you are really worried.

That seems to be the consensus. I am drinking extra water to lose the water weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rezzy Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 That seems to be the consensus. I am drinking extra water to lose the water weight. Yeah, go with what you were doing. Splurging every once in a while won't make you gain weight, unless it becomes a habit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
