So today i cheated on my diet today and i ate way way waaay more calories then usual but its to late to go to the gym and i want to know of some really great calorie burners that i can do at home.. preferbly fast ones too. i just feel so guilty and i'll never let myself live it down.

Feeling guilty about "ruining" a diet plan is the No.1 reason that people give up and are unsuccessful with diets.

You have to understand that if you are limiting yourself too much that your body will crave more things and that you will eat. Maybe you should look at you diet again with your parents or doctor or whoever and adjust it so that you are still going to be losing weight however, over a slightly longer period of time. Also, work in some treats to the diet so that you will not have to feel guilty about having them. Everything in moderation remember!!!!

DO NOT feel guilty about having eaten more today. Put it down to what it was - a little blip. Do the exercise that you would normally have done today and most importantly, start again tomorrow with a clear conscience. There is absolutely no point in beating yourself up about this otherwise you will just think "oh well, I have ruined it now - I might as well have another chocolate bar".

Good luck!!!
