Was my day as bad as I think? - Diet & Nutrition Message Board

Woke up at 5am and here is what my day looked like:

Breakfast: Luna bar, 6 saltine crackers, coffee with a little bit of NF milk. MIMOSA (it was my graduation day!)
Late Lunch(2pm): Cooked mussels to start, 1 piece of bread, 1 slice of smoked salmon on cracker, main dish was pan roasted scallops (4 of them) on a bed of lettuce in a vinaigrette dressing,
Dessert: apricot, 2 small bites of strawberry shortcake
Dinner/Late snack (8:30pm): 3 rice cakes with roasted red pepper hummus, LF cottage cheese with 3/4 cup granola, frozen yogurt with kashi sprinkled on top

I am so extremely full and after I ate that late lunch I decided it would suffice as my dinner also, but I definitely ate after that even though I was NOT hungry. I feel awful and keep thinking I'm going to gain weight...

If I go back to eating and exercising normally on monday or tuesday will I avoid weight gain?

Oh your day really wasn't bad at all. You have plenty of protein rich foods, not a lot of fat, and very little carbs (and they seem to be good carbs anyways). You definately didn't go overboard with desserts or anything, so it all looks great. It's not as bad as you think- I don't think you need to compensate for it at all, but it's really up to you!

Thanks, girlygirl. I was just in one of those moods where I wanted to keep eating so I kept revisiting the kitchen again and again. I HATE when I get like that. I wish I could stop myself in the act!
