in Longest Consecutive Day Logging Streak!? Comment by prdrivas June 2020

in Tracking on cheat days? Comment by prdrivas September 2017
I do them once a week although I refer to it as a free day, not cheat day. They work great for me. I've been in control of my weight for two and a half years. Yes, I do a lot of cardio. I also lift. I do them because moderation never worked for me. It's nice if you can do it, but for me, the structure needs to be…

Neither, bourbon for me, in moderation of course. I know there's research that says alcohol kills fat loss, but I find I can do OK if I keep it to a couple of days a week.
