    Instead ... I chose cap my calories at a certain amount and with those calories to eat only foods I like. :)

    I had diet breaks every 16 weeks, but no cheat days.

    Why do I need a cheat day? And what's wrong with a candy bar, if I've got the calories for it? The weight is still dropping.

    Agreed - I enjoy a bar of chocolate most days, I haven't considered giving up once in the last 6 months and I've lost 30lbs so far.

    OP do whatever works for you, but don't assume it will work for everyone else.

    I don't like cheat days as it sounds too much like a diet and I am going for something I can sustain forever. I prefer to eat what I want within my calorie range and amp up the exercise when I know I will be eating something that I can't quit squeeze in there and still get my nutrients.

    How bad do I want WHAT?

    When I was focused on weight loss I made it NOT feel like a fight, as that is the best way to create something that is sustainable, IMO. When I was doing the half ironman I did afterwards I did have to fight through it at times, and I'm sure that's true for lots of specific goals.
