I ate a whole box of banana nut cheerios last night

I feel a little bad because I'm trying to lose a little weight.. I didn't really eat much the day before and I don't plan on eating much today since I'm way over my calories. does binging this one time gonna make me gain a lot of weight?

Don't count calories... You're still not even 18 enjoy being young instead of worrying about your weight. When I was a middle schooler I would've LOVED to gain a few pounds. Especially because everyone treated me differently because of my small size. None of the girls even wanted to go out with me, the boys excluded me from rougher sports, I was called twig on a regualar basis, I was embarassed to take my shirt off. That's not the case anymore though. I actually now weigh 138 pounds which is about average and I'm going out for football this year lol. Seroiusly though some people would love to gain weight. I mean look at those starving children in Africa. They will probably die because they don't eat enough. So don't go "Oh I gained 3 pounds! Well no more eating for a week..." NO that is not the answer. You can eat as much as you want but make sure the things that you eat are healthy. Instead of Bannana nut Cherrios try something like an apple. It's all about the quality of food you eat not the quantity. Hope this helped :) Good Luck

A whole box! that makes you a cereal killer =) Were you drunk when you did this. I do that from time to time. I think they put sedatives in the cheerios. I seem to wake up in my underwear on the floor in the kitchen with little cheerios stuck to my face. I don't how I ended up there, but it seemed like a good idea at the time I guess. Good luck on the jogging. - j

It's just going to be water weight. Sometimes you can go on an all out binge and the scale will say that you've gone up three pounds the next day. But the truth is, if you scale back on calories and keep up with your exercise program, you'll be back on track in a day or two. Water weight is easy to get off, it's keeping it off that's the trick.

I've lost a lot of weight in the past and so I'm naturally curious about other people who are on their way. If you don't mind my asking, what's your goal weight? How many calories are you eating a day? Are you taking protein and fiber into account? Do you just use WiiFit or are there other forms of exercise?

I'm being weird and nosy, but sometimes I like to offer weight loss advice. =/

[yasie_xoxo17]

No its ok:) my goal weight is 117, I'm 5"3 and for some reason my body won't let me go pass 125. I'd say I eight around 1200 calories, give or take depending on what I have going on in my day. I get a lot of soy protein because I'm a vegetarian and I get a bunch of fiber too. I don't get on my wii fit like I should, and its hard to find time to excercise, but I do like to do pilates.

i understand! I'm conscious about that stuff too:)

5'3 and 125 pounds? Seriously, don't get nervous about backsliding a little bit. You're at a perfectly healthy weight and if you want to lose some, that's your business (we all carry weight differently, so maybe you feel like you'd just look better at 117) but don't be in any rush and definitely don't be hard on yourself if you aren't militant about your diet 24/7.

Pilates are awesome. I used to do them a lot but now only one day a week with cardio twice and weight lifting three times weekly.

you're fine! we all slip up. I ate too much cake the other day :/ LMAO. I just got up and worked out for an hour and a half. danced/aerobics/walking. it's okay to slip up, as long as you work it out. make sure you're still eating enough during the day. no less than 1200 calories. you'll start to exhaust yourself and you'll have more eating rampages. I was practically starving myself when I went on the slim fast diet a couple years back (worst diet EVER) and when I quit it and ate normally - I STUFFED my face because I was so hungry. it was completely out of control, so to avoid moments like that, give your body enough nutrition during the day. good luck on your journey, I'm right there with you!

[yasie_xoxo17]

Thanks a lot!

No, within a day, your weight fluctuates between 2-6 pounds anyway, I've been trying to lose weight myself, and sometimes I slip too, like last night... And this morning I was 2 pounds heavier than the previous mornings, but if you were to weigh yourself in the morning and at night, you would see that you gain and loose weight, everyday.. They say its not good to weigh yourself daily like that, but I think its just because it brings most people down, I stay ok with it. Don't worry about it, it was only cheerios!

There is 110 calories in 3/4 of a cup of honey nut cheerios. It takes 3500 calories to gain a pound. I'm not sure how many servings are in a box so you will have to do that math yourself. Overall you really shouldn't gain weight. If you did that every day you would, but not because of one night.

[awholemessofme]

No! Everyone slips, just workout.

Go on a long walk.

Or a thirty minute run.

You can't completely let yourself fall out of control.

Exercise is good for you, and you won't feel so terrible afterward.

[Amrit]

No. Not a lot of weight. Maybe a few pounds. However don't continue eating like this as you have to lose weight.

[Amrit]

Exercise & don't eat oily food.

[Littletad]

Just exercise. Run for an hour or two. Do aerobics. Avoid eating late night snacks.

No it won't make you gain a lot of weight if it was just a one time thing
