No going low calorie after a cheat day That defeats the purpose! Will you please stop thinking that cheats are bad?

If you don't want to cheat then we can increase your calories, take your pick.

Jodi, my cheat day was a binge day for me
If I don't want to have a big cheat day.. can I have two mini cheat days per week instead once a week big cheat?

Like, can I allow myself protein bars 2 times a week with some other source of high carb?

Jodi, do you think I should do my shoulders workout before cycling class tomorrow? or do shoulders workout after work?

If I do shoulders workout before cycling tomorrow morning that means I have to eat before going to the gym.. If I just do cycling in the morning I can go on an empty stomach and that will help more with fat loss.. what you think?

No and No.

The purpose of 1 day is to refill glycogen and raise leptin. You can't do this with 2 mini-refeeds unless you really pack in the food which I know you can't do.

Do your workout before your cycling class. I see no reason for you to be doing AM cardio on an empty stomach.

Ok.. I'll have to stick to my 1 day refeed and learn how to refeed and not binge
