I have something sweet every single day! Yum! But I figure it into my total daily calories.0

You can have as many cheat days as you can fit into your total weekly calorie target. After you go beyond that target, you either a) lose weight more slowly than you targeted, b) don't lose weight, or c) gain weight. It's your choice.0

What do you mean by "cheat day?" Your body thinks "cheat" is a laughing matter....it logs everything. Eat at maintenance one day a week? sure. Just accept slower losses. But don't think there is some stupid magic day that you can eat at a 3500 kcal surplus and not gain weight. Physics. It's a thing.0
