    I usually have one cheat day a week when I eat out with my husband. It's really just a cheat meal because I stick to plan the rest of the day. I've been logging my cheat day because it's a helpful reminder of what could happen if I ate like that every day. That message when you finalize your posting for the day of how much you would weigh if you ate like that ever day is pretty valuable! Now I know why I always gain so much weight when I go on vacations.

    Since I started cutting on Jan 3rd I have had 4 days between 5,000 - 8,000. Every Sat & Sun I'm ~ 350-450 over maintenance, but I operate on total weekly numbers.

    I have lost 7 pounds since Jan 3rd. 14 if you count 7 lbs of bloating that came right off after I stopped eating like a 400 lb man (like I had been for the previous 6 weeks).

    It does slow your progress, but consistency over time wins.

    Edited for spelling.
