    I'm not old enough to drink but the times I've had sips, I don't remember liking it. Besides i don't believe in drinking calories unless its reasonable like ~200 for a smoothie.

    While I certainly wouldn't suggest 5000 calories of alcoholic beverages, I will suggest that you reconsider your stance on high-calories drinks...especially if you are looking for ways to add more calories. For the same reasons they can be problematic for those trying to eat at a deficit, they can be great for someone looking for more calories.

    You don't plan a 5000 calorie cheat day. You shouldn't plan a cheat day at all. The key to hitting your goals is dedication, why set yourself back 3 days of hard dieting just for one day of eating till you're lethargic and regret it?

    Just keep doing what you're doing and if you've hit a plateu, try increasing certain macros for a day or two or even adding 2-400 calories.

    imo, planning an excessive cheat day is not only stupid, but detrimental to your goals in the long run.

    I wouldn't. That is not a cheat. That is an unhealthy binge.

    Being as you're so petite, do you worry you might feel sick to eat so much in one day?

    Have any of the suggested menus appealed to you?

    Seriously people. Unhealthy binge? Hasnt anyone looked at calorie counts these days? Go to Outback. Split a bloomin Onion. Eat the predinner salad. Steak. Baked Potato. Shrimp. Right there. Per the Outback Website over 3k calories alone. And Ive seen any number of people, big or small, eat that and more at Outback. Add dessert, a drink or two. People really need to get some kind of realization of calories. Maybe its a binge for some of you, but no need to judge the OP and call them gross and all sorts of the other stuff directed their way.
