Here's a few more tips for when you fall off the wagon....
Realize that one binge won't make you gain weight. So you did it, big deal. Move on and promise yourself not to do it again.
Be patient. Changing a poor habit takes time and you will need to substitute food with other treats, such as watching a DVD, doing a hobby, going for a walk with a digital camera, etc. Find diversions that take you away from food to help you kick the habit.
Put things into perspective! You ate food... that is all...it is not a crime. I know, you overate and you may feel very sick at the moment, but all you did was eat. Drink some water, forgive yourself, move on and move forward.
Don't starve yourself! Starving to compensate for a binge will only make things worse. Your body will become confused by the feast then the lack of food and will then store whatever you eat. Thus destroying your metabolism.
Go for protein at your next meal! Eating a protein-rich diet at the following meal(s) will slow the bodies reaction to instantly store all excess carbs into fat. Also, skip the complex carbs and reach for veggies instead.
Drink plenty of water!
Do some cardio! Go for a walk. Or add a little extra cardio to your planner for the following day.
And again, forgive yourself and move on! Don't let one mistake completely derail your hard work and your fitness goals. You can do this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
