Alright! Kick *kitten*! It's cheat meal time! What restaurant are you going to? What are you ordering? What are you making for yourself?

    If/when I decide to have a cheat day, I'm doing nachos and beer without a question!

    I had a cheat meal today - some ciabatta, olives, and cheese, and homemade chocolate mousse. Yum!
  • Big Cheeseburger, or mexican food. Can't decide!

    I had two ribs, pulled pork, three pieces of three different cakes, a cotton candy icy, beans and rice, two beers and no regrets ;)

    And that was just lunch. Mfp estimates it at 1729 calories. My "cheat meals" lately have been around 1700 calories.

    I am not due a cheat day but when it's time, I would like an Indian takeaway with a lamb jalfrezi, pilau rice, onion bhaji, garlic naan bread, saag aloo and bombay potatoes. Washed down with a can of full fat coke.

    Yes, I would eat all of that. And go back for seconds. And have some chili chocolate for desert. :laugh:

    I was JUUUUUUST talking about this:

    filet Palermo (grilled rare filet stuffed with crabmeat dressing, topped with smoked gouda and a roasted garlic cream sauce)
    sweet potato mash topped with homemade candied pecans
    homemade challah
    a BOTTLE of Plumpjack Reserve Cab
    And flourless chocolate cake with hand-whipped cream

    All in all, probably somewhere around 2500 calories, which is why I'm not having it and won't have it. My goals are more important than a few minutes of taste.

    Since when do you have to or need to have a cheat day. If you are following a healthy diet these foods can be included without giving them a bad name. To continue being healthy just limit these foods to once/month! No need to feel guilty about it.

    Yes, but one of these in a day would not be a problem!
  • Indian food...palak paneer in abundance, naan, daal and more palak paneer!

    One of the things from the list? Or one serving of the above? Either way- sure, I could do it, but at the moment it's not a priority. I don't deprive myself of everything, but I'm not going to have that sort of overindulgence for a while either. :-)

    If I do a cheat day, it's going to be a bona-fide philly style cheesesteak. complete with chop steak, green peppers, onions, and cheez whiz. And then I woke up, got sensible, and decided that- for me- nothing tastes as good as healthy feels.

    Right at this very second, if I could have a cheat meal, it would be sushi complimented with a glass of wine...

    I am talking 3-4 rolls of sushi, yes I will eat them all, with a starter of miso soup, and I will go out with a bang and get dessert. Self serve frozen yogurt please. Oh yeah, I have no self control so I will get like way too much yogurt with way too many toppings that don't even go together but they all look so good and I don't allow myself to have them normally, so screw it let's get crazy.

    ....and this is why cheat meals are slowly becoming a thing of the past for me, because I keep spinning my wheels with them and a meal turns into a meal AND dessert, which I am guessing all of this would come close to 2,000-3,000 calories.

    So, this past week, I just had frozen yogurt. Baby steps.

    I'd definitely hit some fancy Mediterranean/Middle-Eastern place.
    A giant pita wrap stuffed with falafels, hummus, avocado, lettuce, onions, bell peppers, and drizzled with olive oil.
    For dessert I'd have a big, rich piece of baklava and a latte.

    I eat something everyday that I crave so I don't overdo it when I have a cheat meal or day. Lately, it has been brownies.

    My cheat meal is usually something from Carl Jr or Hardees for those on the east coast. Last time it was a Memphis BBQ burger and an oreo cookie shake.

    My last cheat meal I had Arby's beef and cheddar with curly fries and a Jamocha shake. And i had some no bake peanut butter fudge cookies. Sooo yummy. My next cheat meal is probably going to be Mexican food with a beer. Probably nachos or enchiladas.

    When I decide to have a full blown cheat meal, I'm going picnic style. Cole Slaw, Potato salad, beer, hawaiian bread, grilled chicken, grilled burgers, beer, grilled brats, chips, beer, baked beans, and maybe a beer.
