Cheat Days?
Replies

I don't consider it a "cheat day" either. Every Sunday I go for my long run (usually 5-12 miles) and with about 100 cal/mile I am fairly certain I deserve to eat whatever I want for just that one meal. Paying attention to the fuel I get before and after the run isn't that hard so at night I usually have a few glasses of wine or maybe Starbucks during the day. I don't have that much high calorie food at home so its not an issue and I've found that going out to eat with friends seems to be the most treacherous thing I've come across.
If starbucks once a week is my biggest problem, I think I might be okay!0 -
cheating is cheating. unless you plan for it and exercise to account for it, you are just fooling yourself. who are you cheating? only yourself
cheating is for the weak
Agreed! Simply count it, or work in activity to earn extra calories, everyday. Why "cheat"? Track what you eat, and if you don't have the calories in the "bank" - choose something else.....up to you, and you only!
disagree here. my friends say I lie to my phone... but i figure that's ok, as long as I'm losing!]0
