A tip for bouncing back after a binge

I usually let loose on Saturdays, which in turn forces me to loosen the belt on Sundays.  One thing I've found that helps me bounce back quickly is to make sure I exercise before going to bed Saturday night.  (I know, I know, it's a lot more fun to go straight to bed after eating a lot.)  For me, the best approach is to wait until a couple of hours have passed after eating, then watch a movie while riding the eliptical.  The benefits are 2-fold: I go to bed feeling good (without a "binge baby" as my brother calls it), and it's a lot easier to bounce back to normal weight the next week.  Try it next time to eat a lot and let me know if it helps.
