    I am also learning (slowly) that a couple bites are the real yummy parts and that stuffing my face doesn't make it any better

    This is true! The first taste of something sweet or a good pizza is gonna signal the reward system in your head, but it's gonna dull down really quick. You really don't need to eat an entire pizza. Or, I keep telling myself that. ;D

    Cheat days (or what I call reseed days) are critical to long term weight loss. Slot them in at least biweekly and enjoy!

    How are they critical? I've been at this two years and never had one.

    I incorporate my favourite foods into my daily calories. I don't deprive myself of the foods I love, I just eat less (and sometimes I don't! Lol). I just have to make sure to log correctly and fit the food in my daily calories.

    In the past, whenever I had cheat day, I ended up undoing some of the good work I did that week. Not worth it.
