    Need a little more info. How much of what is enough, and a day off from what?

    From exercise, yes usually it is good to take a rest day once a week.

    From logging, that depends on what you mean by day off. Deciding to eat more for a day is fine, but still log so you can own up to the effects of it. Many new users fall into the cheat day trap and then end up stalling their own progress.
