Better term than "cheat" day?
Replies

I absolutely hate negative associations with food - calling foods good or bad, having cheat meals, using food as a reward. All food should be enjoyed and savoured, but moderation is the key. A planned day where I know I'm going to go over my calorie goal (for instance, a few weeks ago I cooked a huge sunday dinner for my family, with lots of meat, 2 types of potato, wine, cake for afters...) then I call it a "To hell with it all day" or a "You only live once day". Most of my THWIA days are special occasions - family meals, birthdays etc. There is no way I want to associate such a meal / day with feelings of guilt, or cheating, or feeling bad.That would really taint the whole thing for me.0
