Mislead me, I thought you were speaking about something else!
Every Sunday.
Every Sunday.
Sunday is my cheat day as well. Eat anything I want that day.

Saturday for me 
Everyday. I just make sure I get enough protein, plenty of vegetables and then plenty more calories.

eating clean is important for overall health. I think cheat days are an excuse to be unhealthy. High calorie days alternating with low calorie days are cool, but "cheat meals" imho has come about as a way to market weight loss programs and ebooks. Especially by people like Joel Marion
EDIT: i'll add a bit more
Charles Staley has had tremendous success in getting clients to build and lose at the same time by having high carb high cal days on training days and then normal high protein slightly lower cal on rest days.
The every other day diet goes by the same principle.
For optimal health, I don't think we can have "cheat" days unless your idea of a cheat day is an extra grass-fed NY strip steak with extra herbs on top and extra vegetables. Or an extra piece of fruit.

To stay sane? I'm not sure. To stay social, yes. I try to build "free" days/meals into social obligations. Birthdays, holidays... that sort of thing. I call them "natural disasters" and schedule my diet and training in such a way as to incorporate them into my life.
Personally, I eat as much junk food as possible. Turns out, that's not very much if I want to stay lean, but I eat a little bit of chocolate every day and there's certainly room for the odd egg-roll in my life.
I didn't get into this lifestyle to live on sawdust.
I do, however, find it interesting how people respond to my apparent lack of concern for "clean eating" when they see me eating something that isn't a poached chicken breast.
The blobs say "Well, YOU don't have to worry!" to which I say "I look this way BECAUSE I'm careful with my diet - most of the time".
The cleantards on the other hand look down their noses at me for my indiscretions. To them, I just smile - while I eat the second donut.
I mean shit, it's just food. It's not like it's a religion.
I usually only go once a week with a cheat meal. Other than that, I enjoy eating low carb and high fat.
Ah yes. Similar to the people who claim being lean is just a result of a fast metabolism when they see me eat 3 plates of indian food (which by the way was delicious).
Never mind the 95% of the rest of the time they don't pay attention to or know about when the food is plain and boring.

NEVER. I have not had a cheat mean in 2 years. My cheat will usually be a cheat binge, but a healthy cheat. Likee wheat bread with peanut butter.
mind over matter.
Don't be like a 5 month year old baby and use good food to stop you from crying. Your a man now(hopefully) so suck it up!
Sincerely,
SHUT THE FUCK UP AND LIFT

Every Fiday I have my cheat day. Usually it's pretty healthy stuff, just plates and plates of it though. I always eat Jamaican, Ethiopian or Somali (The last two courtesy of my wife
) food which is really good for you.
I haven't had really unhealthy food in a long time. Last time I did, I went to this greasy spot off Crenshaw and got some fried fish, onion rings, and a biscuit... Felt like crap immediately after and said never again.

cheat day ONCE A WEEK?!?!?
holy shit...you must really not care about your gains whatsoever
You obviously did not read what I wrote besides that. Jamaican food usually consists of red rice, cabbage, jerked chicken, plantains, fish, beef stew, yams and other good foods...
Ethiopian food consists of lentils, fish, injera (spongy type of bread), assorted vegetables and other things... Somali food is the not too far removed from the former because the countries are right next to eachother.
I have been making gains just fine with this plan... My genetics dictate that. I don't see how you simply focused on what I said while several others said they do the exact same thing earlier on in the thread, but whatever. You're missing out on some great food.
See, your version of "healthy cheat" is my version of really, REALLY shitty junk-food. I don't think I've had a slice of bread in two years.
The only thing worse than grain foods, to me anyway, is transfat. I don't eat transfat at all. Grain I eat very, very rarely. When I do, it really has to be a special occasion.
What a strange thing to say. I wonder why you would think this way, without examining the evidence - that is to say, Bilal's gains.
Odd.
Amen to that!
Delicious ethnic food is such a gift. Injera's gorgeous stuff. I'd love to know how to make it. I know the real stuff's supposed to be made from teff, but that's the extent of my knowledge.
Dude, take another steroid cookie.
Do you even listen to your to what your thoughts are writing on the computer?

I have a cheat meal once a week usually on Saturday and its usually pizza
Oh man, you are missing out. Great stuff. I'm Norwegian by blood, but that doesn't mean I'm eating Leutfisk and Lefsa at every meal. Always looking for kinds of food to try.
my personal definition of the cheat meal has changed over the years. I consider Smashburger basically "healthy" since everything is fresh and not processed or laden with additives, etc.
Ha ha, I love your terminology!
To them, I just smile - while I eat the second donut.
Very well said!!
lol
Pizza.
