What lies do you tell yourself?? Lies that make cheating on diet ok?

First, you must begin with seeing all that you’re telling yourself. Look for the lies that make you feel defeated, or weak, or even excited to binge. Those ones are the ones you have to break down to find out whether they are true or not.

When I was losing weight I used to tell myself that it was okay to cheat because being in too low a calorie deficit is bad for you so I should let myself have that extra slice of cake just to make sure! I'd also think how it's important to build sustainable habits that will help me be healthier long term and 'cheats and treats' are not things I intended to completely get rid of so I would say it was all part of the plan!
It worked in the end though so maybe cheating occasionally (or....regularly...) isn't too bad! I know after cheat days of pizzas and sweet things I always crave vegetables and nice fresh, homemade meals so I think it kept me on track1 -
If I eat this today....tomorrow I'll just literally eat nothing - so it will balance out, right?

I used to lie to myself and make myself believe that the "healthy-alternative-high protein-clean-chemical free-guilt free-etc-etc-bs whatever" was just as good (or better) than the "normal" version of the food.
How sad was that!1 -
None, I don't diet. I eat sensible and exercise. There is no need to deprive yourself of anything if you meet your daily calories needs and move1
-
whatever I'll won't do cardio tomorrow1
