278 calories

oaky.
so today i started off with 40 calories, and i was half asleep in bed when my paretns come barging in my room telling me to get dressed because "were going out for pizza".
so im already getting jittery and i tell them i have a headache.
they tell me too bad and make me go with them.

so im sitting in the restaraunt feeling the binge crave come on so i start txting my ex. aka one of my best friends.
and i ask him how many calories are in a pice of pizza with cheese on it.
he said probably around 300.
so im already feeling discouraged and i look around on some sites on the internet i have on my fone to do something other than stare at the food.
my mom offers me some.
i turn it down.
on one site, i see that it says that a piece of pizza with just cheese thats 1/8 of a 12" diameter is 238.
i begin to wonder if 238 is really a lot or if im just crazy.
i start telling myself all my effort wasted is NOT worth a stupid piece of pizza.
but god how i wanted it.
so i checked fitday.com [like my online bible] and it says 238 aswell.
so i ask the waitress if she knows off hand how many calories are in a small piece of pizza.
she said that all the pieces were cut equally and it was made with low fat cheese so one slice equaled to 220 calories.
i start thinking.
hmm.
could i gain weight from 220 calories?
if ive already eaten 40 calories that means ive eaten 260 calories today?
should i go by what she says and hope she right, or should i go by fitday?
so i txt my ex and ask him if he thinks 220 calories at one sitting counts as a binge.
he reminded me that when i used to eat around 400 calories a day and it didnt count as binging then.
so i asked him if he thought that i would gain weight from it.
i told him i weigh a normal amount for my height,
and he said that because im not underweight that theres no chance id gain from it.
i asked if he was sure.
i used to eat around 400 calories a day, and managed to loose weight.
so i thought about it.
decided it didnt count as a binge.
and ate it.
so,
ive decided that im going by fitday's listing for cheese pizza and going to assume that the pizza was 238 calories.

total for today:
278.

i hope to god i dont gain any weight.
it feels so weird that i could eat pizza and still be within by safe calorie zone.
ive decided that if i eat anything under 300 calories, im safe.
i prefer to stick to the two digit food rations though.
65 and 45 are still my favorite numbers.
and i will still be eating my 45/65 diet.
BUT.
if i "binge", then it doesnt count if its udner 300 calories.

i swear ill make up for it tomorrow though in exercise just in case.

it doesnt count as a binge right?
all of a sudden 300 calories seems like a lot.
278 feels like a lot...
im starting to wonder if i made a mistake.
i didnt listen to ana when she told me to leave it alone...
how could i not listen?
does this count as a fuck up?
i dont think it does...
but what if im wrong...
278 is too big of a number...
i already weigh 125...
well 124 to be exact.
i dont think ill loose any weight tomorrow.
its too much to ask for if i suck down a piece of pizza and hope to loose weight.


okay.
im going to go finish working and shit for my mother.
yes, at 11:07 at night.

ive still got 3 more hours to go.

  1. you're ok. Maybe you'll freak out your metabolism and lose the weight. If you don't lose it tomorrow, there's always the next day!

  2. your ok. i wouldn't consider it a binge (it would be a binge if u ate the whole entire pizza to yourself)
    plus your daily total of cals is really low.
    your golden :)

  3. That would be an amazing number for me. Besides, reading blogs, lots of girls eat too much one day and end up weighing less the next for no apparent reason. lol - I hope that happens for you. Apparently some places make vegan pizza with no cheese, maybe you could look into something like that?
    To be completely honest, the idea of vegan pizza perplexes me.

  4. 278? That's not much! We tend to think it's a lot but we forget that a normal person eats between 1200 and 2000 calories/day. If you cut back 500 cal/day you should normally lose 1 pounds/week.

    Your metabolism is probably super low right now and even if you had more than what you are used to 278 is still not much. It should even up your metabolism a bit, which should be exactly what you want!

    Take care Sophia, you are truly wonderful, but do not overthink it!
    Love,

  6. You're so strong - managing your totals even when you're forced to eat out. Don't worry - you'll burn more than enough cals while you sleep to compensate for that small slice of pizza~
