Lets say one month, do you diet consecutively? or "take days off"

Posted by: gwcaton

For the past 13 months i have had a cheat day once a week and have made some good improvments . So i think i will continue to do so until it becomes neccessary to change . But what works for one may not for another .

When I first started my cheat days were feasts ! But anymore they are more like at the most 2 cheats meals . I have to have my Calgaros pixxa once a week or i get very cranky.

I cheat one day a week and have made significant gains. I've lost 25+ lbs in 6-7 months and have gained quite a bit of muscle size. I always feel like shit after my cheat day though, I need to tone it down a bit I think. I sure do look forward to it every week though. OUTBACK Alice springs chicken here I come!!!!

Right now because I am dieting for competition I will have zero cheat days the next 12 weeks, not even a cheat meal.

Otherwise I have a cheat day each week.

i just felt real guilty cheating today, guilty enough to *almost* throw it all up, ignorant i know, but ill just train harder tomorrow.

Posted by: Prince

having one cheat day per week is fine as long as you eat clean and strict the other 6 days.

I do pretty much eat clean every single day, every single meal, unless it's a special occassion, ie a friend's birthday, or I'm taking my girl out, or it's CHristmas/Thanksgiving...those special occassions to come up pretty often, though. Damn.

KidNotorious, judging from your pictures, you probably really need those cheat calories. EAT MAN!

Peace.

I cheated today.

I had Quiznos. I probably went 2000 cals over maintenence. Yikes! Or maybe not. Oh well who cares I'm bulking.

^^ Dones you really enjoy your food, man, I wish I could have your abandon when it comes to cheats, but I'm so anal about it people get irritated with me. I know they don't hurt me too much, either, considering my metabolism level.

Peace.

I have one cheat day every week. Typically Saturdays. I eat clean the rest of the week.

What dose everyone consider a cheat day?

I had scrambled eggs, bacon, and suausage with some grapes for breakfast. For lunch today I had a chef salad with low cal ranch. Would these foods be a cheat day. I did have a resonable portion though.

Posted by: Premo55

My cheat days are like 500-1000 calories above maintenance...sometimes they can get even worse than that.

Peace.

Diet is what you eat, so yes I diet every day. On cheat days I eat less than I'm supposed to.

Today was my cheat day and I started out with 7 Krispy Kremes. It went down hill from there. Feeling like hell right now! Back to reality tomorrow.

I wonder how long it would take or set you back on 7 krispy kremes because I really want one right now.

Posted by: donescobar2000

Yeh they suck you in to the point of no return. They even give you a free hot one as your standing in line before you even order anything from there its down hill. Going late night with a cup of coffee is the best, but I wouldnt know. Havent had one in like 5 months.

I eat like that one day every week and I never gain a pound. I swear sometimes I think it helps.

Posted by: IronSlingah

Never gaining is faliure to me since im trying to cut. But everyone has differnt goals as for me i cheat sat/sun cuz i work in a restaurant.

If thats what you think than so be it.

I know several of us have tried to tell you otherwise and you just don't seem to understand. You are FAR from 23% BF.

Think of it as a refeed! It probably does work better than you think.

As for the original question, I think of it as eating clean as often as possible but cheating when necessary. Like Prince and others have said, if you eat clean most of the week one or two cheats isn't going to kill you.
