As yesterday was New Years Eve, I was at a party and sufficed to say, there was lots of food. Clean food, mind you (Shrimp, crackers, fruit exc). Well I had about 200 cals left for the day and I thought, "What the hell, I'll pull it out of my calories tomorrow. Anyways, so I picked up a plate and started eating. The only problem was I ended up going about 800 cals over my goal that day.
I was just wondering if there is a way to correct this "pig out" such as cutting my 200 cals per day until a balance out the 800 or even balancing it all out today.
A solid steel ship with a great foundation, steers itself into the wind. The waves rise, and toss the ship to and fro. The captain stays persistent because he/she has been trained in how to handle troubled water when the ocean gets upset and the winds are fierce. The ship didnt sink because of this training implementation, and there is a look of joy and happiness when the storm calms. A sense of accomplishment and relief.

When you arm yourself in the circumference of knowledge applicable to your goal, and partake in goal driven "perception of this knowledge" beyond just the basics, one can implement and apply this different perception to resolve problems that develop and create some freedom of the self at the same time.

With this in mind, one can even plan "eating over maintenance" or (deal with unplanned eating over maintenance" when deficit dieting and reduce guilt and the associated emotions that come with it).
For example, it can come down to
5 things:
1. Knowing your MT Line,
2. Viewing days for calories within a 24 hour cycle clock (knowing your prior history of deficits and current tabulation),
3. Knowing the approximate calories in deficit to lose an approximate pound of fat tissue,
4. Approximate calories burned during different types of exercise, and
5. Knowing how to manipulate calories (and even timely manipulation of the three nutirents, carbs, protein, and fats)
Manipulation of these 5 items can open up the mind! Look at them differently: Use them they are always there waiting.
These 5 things can be used as tools to assist one when one is thinking they may have messed up.

Some things to think about:
I just "firmly" believe if one wants their goal bad enough they will "do what it takes" to get the job done. And, I believe in having a plan in place for weaknesses we all have......and embrace the mere fact they will come; there is no doubt. Why be surprised? Have a plan and you will serve yourself much better, I promise.
Here is an example:
If one were to "view" their days in 24 hour cycles "particular to their lifestyle" and all calories consumed would fit within this 24 hour cycle period. When one goes over their limit (for sake of argument--for what ever reason), the person can leave the calorie surplus for the period that day, and just flat "move on" and continue with the projected deficits the next day as before
or develop a strategy and do something else--that can lead to being more productive
Can you tell me some things you can do with the 5 things I listed?
One more thing to remember, that some people miss: When one is on a deficit diet for a rather long period, for example, the body is much more "tolerant" to a calorie surplus dependent on the amount of the surplus, and in most cases will not even make an impact against ones goal--especially just one day among many calorie deficits of the past.
I would thoroughly enjoy your feed back: Get your mind rocking and a rolling!
One of the MAIN reasons I am successful, is due to knowing how to "manipulate perception" of things learned and how to apply this "manipulated perception" to "strengths and weaknesses". This can save a ton of sorrow and can create much happiness.
When learning certain information on health and fitness, learn how to "think deep" past the obvious topic at hand, and how some information that you are reading can be applied to "invest within yourself" to combat weaknesses and entice strengths and in some cases, allow a strength to assist a weakness.
Learn to work with and manipulate the basics of nutrition and fitness--VIEW IT DIFFERENTLY...
EDIT: Set your own "realistic" standards.
ROCK ON!
