How do I reset an integer once I've set it?

ITZMARTINIZ (2)
Basically, I'm trying to make it so when I press the wrong key it takes me straight back and makes me choose again but it doesn't change the int back to nothing. If I pressed 'a' or something not listed it should tell me its an incorrect choice and then make me choose again so I can only choose what's listed but it will then keep coming up with its incorrect until I close the program! How do I fix this?

	cout << "Goodbye!" << endl;
	system("PAUSE");
	return 0;
}

else

	cout << "That was not a valid choice please choose again!" << endl;
	system("PAUSE");
	goto Main_Menu;
