My favorite cheat meal is fried chicken wingettes with lemon pepper seasoning. Before joining MFP, I could eat 6 to 10 wings with fries and ranch dressing. Now I will only eat 2 or 3 wings minus the dressing and maybe 5 french fries w/ no ketchup. I give the rest of the order to my fiance. Lol

    You eat chicken wings while filling out your taxes ?
    Why or how are chicken wings cheating ?

    My favorite meal is a cheeseburger with jalapeno and sauteed onions with red Chile sauce from a local Mexican place. I don't call it cheating tho just because I love it. I just make it fit.

    Whatever I am in the mood for. Typically the only thing that makes me go over my calories is dessert though... the rest fits fine in my calories so I don't consider it cheating (unless it makes me go over, obviously).. so I guess fancy desserts are my 'cheat'.

    Vegetable korma with naan bread. At a restaurant that doesn't display nutritional information. I rarely eat out, but this is just something I love. For example, the last time I went out to Indian was with my family on my Birthday.

    My favorite high calorie meal recently is this great burger from a local place. It's a really good flavorful handmade burger topped with a whole grilled portobello mushroom cap, swiss cheese and garlic aoli with a side order of fresh fried Cajun pork rinds. Nom nom!

    I don't consider it cheating because I usually plan for them.

    A well dressed hamburger, a glorious piece of chocolate cake, a nice portion of gooey mac n cheese or a soda. I enjoy every bite/sip.

    I don't demonize food or eating as cheating.

    It either fits my macros or doesn't, and if it doesn't it can be made to.

    I love the healthy stuff I eat, I just struggle with the candy bars and soda pop. But when I have a cheat meal it is usually either pizza (veggie combo of course) or tamales with lots of refried beans and rice at my favorite corner dive.
