    I just started my weight loss so I haven't had a cheat meal yet BUT, I've been very successful before by going crazy once in a while. Nothing low calorie or boring....just grubingly good. It's only one meal and if it gives you the emotional break from dieting you need to keep you going strong....do it!

    I still find myself having a hard time really letting go.

    Fresh, home made bread - the crunchy type - still slightly warm from out of the oven, lots of butter to spread on it, some really nice cheeses with it, plus a good sweet pickle, all washed down with a pint of decent apple cider. Heaven!

    Ohh you little devil. I was perfectly satisfied, just sitting here reading this thread, and not really getting any cravings... until now. Apart from the pickle, you just described perfectness. Now I want to a) bake b) have the cider I didn't have with my dinner c) have some bread with lots of butter and cheese on it.

    Pizza and coke zero (no calories, but definitely bad for you).

    Chinese takeout, though thankfully we don't pick it up all that often.

    Five Guys LIttle Bacon Cheeseburger. SUCH a great guilty pleasure for my cheat meal! OH YUMMY!! I could take off a bun or eat it bunless, but if you're going to cheat, why not cheat all the way!?

    There is one near my house, but I have yet to venture into it.

    Ice cream. Now I make my own using frozen bananas. I add stuff into it, depending what I'm in the mood for (blueberries, unsweetened cocoa powder, a bit of natural peanut butter, etc). I actually like this stuff just as well, except that I will have to have the real stuff when I'm in the mood for mint chocolate chip.

    nooo! I quit all junk food~ its hard at first but after nine or ten months of struggling, you don't want or crave junk anymore. Cheat foods will only keep pulling you in.
