One Bad Meal Won't Make You Fat

I feel like the weird one for saying this, but the salad looks better to me!  It's so hot here that a cold salad would really hit the spot!

Not weird at all. Burgers make me vomit and I just ate a spinach salad with turkey and avocado.

Yum!

Sure it will...coz its never just one, isn't it?

Yep that's the point. One won't make you fat just like one good one won't make you skinny.

LOL, the salad looks better to me too.

I agree, it is unreasonable to expect one meal to do anything either way. It is our pattern of behavior, day in, and day out, that makes the difference. But some do adhere to the importance of one meal at a time, and that is probably true, eat good, one meal at a time, and it all adds up to a big difference.

On the same token, one bad meal eaten, is not a good excuse to "throw in the towel", and eat more. Because that one lapse will not hurt you, unless you let it.

This obsessive, all or nothing thinking is what got me in trouble all the years, I dieted in the past.
