      Turkey meal and all the trimmings

      Whatever I'm in the mood for, and I try to make it fit in my calories. The idea that you have to restrict yourself so much that you feel that you have to cheat makes me sad.

      Zaxby's French fries. So many French fries. So many.

      Usually some kind of ethnic food, or gourmet food that I wouldn't normally have access to. Last Saturday, it was falafel with tahini sauce in a wrap, at an outdoor festival. Yesterday, I had a banana nut bread ice cream sandwich with freshly made organic ice cream and praline bits, while in Philadelphia for work.

      Gourmet pizza from my favorite place. Every Friday night. Mmm.

      FOOD. :D Oh probably some kind of big bowl of cheesy pasta and garlic bread, or some soy sauce loaded Chinese food.

      Biscuits and gravy!(I only get that once a year on my birthday) or pizza - but I can usually fit that into my day if I'm careful.

      Pizza. Will always be pizza.

      And everyone else who stated pizza. Aside from it being calorie dense it actually has good protein in it. Always will be my go to cheat meal while building my body.

      Chicken wings

      Bought a kamado so ribs and pulled pork will add to that. Usually try to stay in the range though. Usually a small breakfast and lunch so I can enjoy what I spent all day cooking :)

      Also wings are very rare for me, maybe once every two months. But man I enjoy them lol

      Does anyone else feel terrible after a cheat meal? I just ate mine. I had two slices of pizza and I am having terrible stomach pains and can't stop using the bathroom

      This probably psychosomatic and probably nothing to do with having a mere two slices of pizza..."cheat" has a pretty negative connotation and all kinds of people on here get all guilty/sick about eating something "bad."

      I personally don't use the term...there are days that I overindulge and it's not a big deal...it's not "cheating" on anything, it's living life and enjoying myself. For my wife's birthday we went to one of our favorite local steak houses...I didn't feel so good afterwards, but that's because I stuffed my face with an appetizer, an 18 ounce ribeye and sides, desert, and we shared two bottles of wine...no regrets though and not something I do routinely by any means...it was a very special occasion.

      We have pizza night most Friday evenings and watch a movie...

      Baby back ribs, lots of them - spicy dry rub, slow cooked, sweet hot sauce just before they are done. And red wine.

      Not I. I usually feel a mix of glorious satisfaction and regret.

      I don't cheat. Me and food have an open relationship.

      i really enjoy any foods so im just grateful to eat but pizza will always be a classic, even the frozen pizza's from grocery store are delicious to me. im more than satisfied with the frozen foods you simply heat up in the microwave or oven, but any fast food is good too... just rarely go that route.

      It seems almost impossible since you can put almost anything on a crust and call it pizza, even chicken alfredo.

      I have cheat meals all the time to be honest...

      But nothing beats a bison burger or a pulled pork sandwich with some good fries and coleslaw
