How to eat after a weekend of indulgence?

[Anonymous]

We had two Halloween parties this weekend and while I didn’t necessarily eat too much or eat “bad” things, I definitely ate things I don’t usually indulge in, and I’m really feeling it today.

What things should I (or shouldn’t I) eat this week to feel like myself again?

Eat less move more is this a real question?

Go back to normal and don’t worry about it. Maybe drink more water

I mean, yes? What do you mean by “eat less”? I’m already staying in a caloric deficit, so what would that look like? Liquids? I’m genuinely asking. I haven’t felt this off since I started my weight loss journey and I’m wondering what works best to get back to baseline quickly.

Sorry! I don’t post here often and wasn’t sure how to indicate that I’ve been eating differently and working out consistently for a while in order to lose weight.

Consistency is the name of the game here. Just like endurance sports training. Somebody with a year of running training doesn’t all of a sudden go back to zero because they took a weekend off. Same here.

Go back to normal. Don’t do anything exotic. Water and fiber will get you feeling better again.

Thanks so much! I’ll definitely up my fiber and make sure I’m keeping extra hydrated. I appreciate the advice!

If you ate a lot of sugar then it may trigger some sugar cravings. Make sure your breakfast and lunch is protein heavy

How can this even be a serious question.
Gee maybe you should try the gelatin trick I saw in Instagram.

I'd personally make sure to get at least a liter & a half to two liters of water, and not eat any added sugars and very low sodium for a day or two.

What do you gain from being a jerk to someone who is asking a genuine question? She wasn’t rude to you, so why be a jerk? Just say nothing.

Thankfully, you’ve gotten good advice here, OP. Good luck! You’ll feel like yourself again by Friday, I promise.
