    They are not the same thing. Don't confuse them.

    I don't really like the term "cheat days" it implys you're doing something wrong, there's nothing wrong with eating more some days, i always vary my caloric intake by 100-250 so my body doesn't get used to a certain amount

    Flexible dieter here. Last week I had two refeed days at around 600g carbs each. Typical intake is around 250g. This will be limited to one this week and next. Currently around 7.5% BF so relatively lean. I have these when I am feeling especially lethargic.

    THis isn't a cheat as it is planned. Weight normally jumps for a day or 2 and then goes back down.
