I was just wondering how much damage would doin somethin like thsi cause. I mean, i usually eat healthy food, n excersize regulary and i feel that one day of eatin all that crap (didnt do exercise on the day either) was like a waste of the whole weeks healthy eating, exercise etc. My goals arent really weight loss just be healthier n fitter, reduce cholestoerol, get a healthier heart etc.... i only binge like this on special occasions..i cant help it! I just feel i need 2 celebrate and i feel if im gonna give up healthy eatin for the day i'll go the whole way! was just wondering how much damage it causes exactly...so if it isnt a mjor setback i wont feel so bad! :) thanks.

Besides we are here to live, what is the point if you can't have fun once in a while. You won't even notice a difference tomorrow because of this junkfood binge, I have them and they actually help because you will think twice about what you eat from now on.
