What was your last cheat meal?

I've only had two in the last 9 months.

First one was a rib steak with veggies, the whole meal was like 1000 calories (keep in mind my goal is 1700), but I still managed to stay under my goal that day because it totally filled me up (having it at lunch helped).

Last one was last Sunday, the French Toast at Cheesecake Factory... I had ham too so it was like 1640 calories for the whole thing. So totally worth it, and I ended up like 90 calories over that day because I was absolutely not hungry after that either!

Really, cheat meals at breakfast or lunch are the way to go...

    The movies seem to be the place where I cheat the most. Last time I ate some Skittles and the time before that it was fries and even the "plain" popcorn is kind of suspect. I prefer not to eat artificial colors/artificial flavors/artificial sweeteners/hydrogenated oils/HFCS/foods fried in rancid and/or TBHQ oil, so when I eat that kind of stuff it falls into a cheat category for me.

    You are on my FL so you've seen my food diary, steak and veggies might be any day of the week for me and if I made calories that day it wouldn't even make my radar "cheat" wise. :laugh:

    Was on a recruiting trip for my engineering firm and the guys I was with wanted to stop at Canes chicken.

    I got the caniac combo with a dr pepper and extra sauce.

    It was insanely delicious, but put me WAY over on sodium for that day.

    I ate a donut at lunch today. A donut sounded so good and I can't remember the last time I had one. So I ate a plain cake donut. Not frosting, no sprinkles, nothing. Just plain. And it was SUPER DELICIOUS!!!!

    what i call cheatin is loading up on more salad and fresh fruit. The nasty sweet stuff like pizzas, chocolate, candy, chips, ice cream well my buddy and I now call that stuff freaks. There is a diff. between a cheat and a freak for us now.
