    I don't. The weekends are my time. I indulge, but stick to my calories. I try to have a nice long walk in the afternoon, this takes me away from temptation during the afternoon and gives me extra calories for dinner/the evening.

    Working out in the morning usually sets me straight!
    I'm soo surprised I didn't go get fast food today,
    but I definitely attribute it to getting up early & getting my workout in.
    :D

    I do indulge! It's the concept of what indulging is that's changed for me. Everyday including weekends, I eat what I choose just less of it than I used to because I now stay conscious of how much food a portion is, how much food satisfies me and how much food I am measuring and eating.

    I struggle big time. I try not to be too bad.

    I usually have 1 bad day which is Friday but I'm honestly going to change it to the Sat or Sun seeing as that is when I do more of my socializing or just being with my OH leads me to temptation

    Ugh. Weekends are the worst. During the weekdays at least I have classes so I have to go outside, walk around.... travel to places.... during the weekend I'm stuck in my dorm room doing homework most of the time, yet surrounded by food and snacks and soda....

    I look in the mirror. I am most critical of myself at the weekend. I examine the fat bits and give myself a good telling off. I weigh in on a Saturday so convince myself that if I indulge in will gain weight. Don't be afraid to shout at yourself. My children think I am bonkers but it seriously works! Good luck. You can do this. X

    THANK GOD I'M NOT ALONE! I STRUGGLING ON THE WEEKENDS BUT I HAVE LEARNED TO LET MPF BE MY GUIDE AS LONG AS I STAY WITHIN MY MACROS IT HELPS TO NOT GET TOO OUT OF CONTROL WITH WHAT I'M EATING. EVERYONE DESERVES TO INDULGE A LITTLE WITHIN CERTAIN LIMITS.

    I workout m-f, so weekends are rest days.
    I keep logging, but if I want to eat more, I do!
    You could log and eat up to your TDEE.
