    Mexican food would be my first choice, or pizza or lasagna and garlic bread - better yet, cheesy garlic bread. Or most recently, a Cookie Jar Blizzard from DQ. Also, pub food ranks up there too. Nothing beats pub appetizers.

    Hmm don't "pig out", but on my big cardio days I "splurge". I usually have Chipotle for lunch (w/ no sour cream) and will go out to dinner and have a margherita pizza or pasta, sometimes frozen yogurt afterwards.
    But it usually still fits caloriewise. I haven't had one day completely "off" since I started this over 3 months ago. Not to say I won't, just not yet. When I do, I have a feeling it will be cheese enchiladas.

    As for ice cream, I still have this often. But I have 1/2 serving of vanilla Haagen Daz (1/4 cup) with strawberries and dark chocolate chips.

    Hmmm...I don't have "cheat" meals or days. I "treat" myself to small servings of chocolate, chips, or whatever, whenever I have a craving for something, they always fit into my calorie goal for the day though. But, if I were to have a meal of complete indulgence with no worries about calories, measuring/weighing,etc., then it would definitely be pasta, bread, a bottle of Cabernet and probably cheesecake to finish...

    I don't have cheat days. I eat whatever I want, whenever I want it. I just do it sensibly.

    What he said!

    Chipotle, no question! A nice burrito bowl with brown rice, double meat of chicken and steak, beans, onions, hot and mild sauce, corn, cheese, lettuce, and yes I must add it... sour cream. Mmmm. Other than that, there's a nice chicken teriyaki joint by my place that is simply delic. Oh, and since I'm from a rainy city... a nice bowl of Vietnamese pho hits the spot nicely. :)

    There are also the occasional lunch/dinner dates where I pig out at random restaurants (Applebees, Thai cuisines, etc)

    After not be able to, find work since January, I got a job, on Monday, and cheated that day.

    I am for now on going to save my cheat days, for my Birthday, and other major Holidays (Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter etc, but still hopefully will plan to fit those days into my calories if I can, which might mean I don't eat all day, until the big feast.

    I don't do cheat days. I reward myself with other items and not food. If I do "cheat" I go over on sodium or carbs but my calories stay in what I am budgeted.
