futuregopher Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Feels bad man I don't know what happened but I went on an eating spree today. I ate 2 bowls of raisin bran cereal, 2 cups of milk, 2 huge oatmeal cookies, 30 dumpings, and probably about 100 cashews. I'm scared to even look at myself in the mirror tomorrow morning I can feel a thin coating of fat forming around my midsection. Link to post Share on other sites
USMCHokie Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Please... You're only going to get "fat" if you're doing that every day for a month. And you stop working out. You're making fit people sound like assh*les... 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Author futuregopher Posted July 1, 2012 Author Share Posted July 1, 2012 no seriously man My body doesn't tolerate carbs that well so I keep to only complex carbs, very few simple carbs but today I probably had I would guess around 250g of carbs. I normally consume around 165g carbs with 90% of those complex but damn I really pigged out today. I know the dumplings have a LOT of simple carbs and those go STRAIGHT to my midsection.

Ok dude, good luck with that. You probably shouldn't eat for at least four days... 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Exit Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 I think you're going a little overboard... almost approaching eating disorder / body image issue territory. If you ate too many simple carbs then do an extra workout tomorrow and use up the energy. There are elite athletes who have cheat days ten times worse than what you just described. Probably the only reason you feel like you had a regretful binge instead of just a planned cheat day is that you're too strict in the first place. When your will power totally buckles unexpectedly and a few hours later you regret everything you ate, something went wrong. Fluid/water weight can accumulate quickly and maybe that's what you felt on your midsection but there's no way you were actual feeling the cellular formation of fat under your skin lol. The simple carbs will spike some fluid retention. Just sweat it out. Link to post Share on other sites

FitChick Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I ate 2 bowls of raisin bran cereal, 2 huge oatmeal cookies... 30 dumpings . When you eat a lot of fiber, that usually happens. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
