    I had a huge cheat day yesterday. I had been wanting to make a cake recipe I saw on pinterest and I couldn't stop thinking about it, so I made it (I won't go into detail about this cake because I wouldn't want to make anyone hungry for cake). Basically I didn't eat very much of the finished product but I ate ALL the leftover icing and felt horrible all day because I was over like 800 calories, but I still ran 3 miles. I weighed myself this morning and I've lost another pound regardless! The spike once a week in calories works for me, so don't be afraid of it!

    To say I have done the above 100 times would be an understatment.
    But now for over a yr I have not felt guilty. Main reason is I work it into my caloric intake and then plan for it, it is such a relief! I love it. An evern the times I know I Went over I don't care it still feels fine
