Blerg, today is one of the most hectic day for me and the biggest break in my diet which will set me back.  After about 3-4 hours I was hanging out with my friends (Who are a bunch of fat, lazy kids.  Not a insult just the truth unfortunately.) in which case the whole day I didn't do much since I overworked myself yesterday and got a cramp in my left leg and right arm.  After going to _______ and then to _________ finally __________ for a friend who can't pay his bills otherwise since his father is under house arrest, we agreed we were all hungry.

So out of my friend decision (since it's cheapest and he's paying), we all got pizzas.

When we got back to my friends house, everyone was eating their pizza while I was staring at it and people were starting to ask me why I'm not eating the pizza.  I told them I'm on a diet and they laughed (I'm fat muscly dude wanting to be skinny around a town which most people are obese or old).  After a couple hours later (would've left and ate a salad from my house, but hate wasting gas not to mention hot girl whom I met tonight and got her number), got hungry so I had a little... then a little more... then by the time I'm satisfied, I was 3/4 done with the pizza.  Now I feel ashamed for doing it. 

I swear to god, Little Caesar's pizza is so shitty in quality which doesn't get you full at all and definitely ate a great deal of calories.

Which posses a question.

Should I have just sucked it up, stayed hungry, and jokingly tell my friends to shut up.  Or should I have just left, drive to my house and came back.  Or what could I've done in a situation like that?   I used to eat like that constantly and pisses me off when my friends don't support the positive choice I am trying to make.

Also, should I just continue a normal cardio routine tomorrow or is there more I can do to make up for what I done today?

I would've done some running today, but after yesterday with my leg hurting to the point of me limping and today with my leg just hurting when I put weight, I don't think I could without further hurting myself.

There's nothing wrong with cheating once in a while..

BUt if you feel bad about it then it's not going to help you. You don't do anything extra the next day or starve yourself. That just makes it worse.

Just continue with your health/fitness/diet plan like nothing happened.

Now, if you're a chronic cheater then obviously you're not going to make much progress in which case you had better do some self introspection on whether you are going to actually commit to do it or if you're just saying you will.

Yea true, just disappointed because was wanting to hold off cheating for at least a month, been about 2 3/4 weeks consisting of eating healthy.  I'll just continue on as usual with what I've been doing if that's what's best for me.

Thank you
