Shenade, What is a cheat day?
If you want to lose two pounds a week you have to have a 7,000 calorie deficit. It is best not to eat the same amount every day. When you run into a plateau, one of the ways to bust it is to eat a lot for a couple of days then eat at the low range of your diet.

I eat healthy most of the week but on Thursdays when we go shopping my husband and I will stop at a resturant and get something to eat and I usually try to get something that is healthy but it all depends on where we stop to eat. So when I do cheat on my diet it's on Thursday's and then I go right back to my diet the next day.

With this plan you can fit in what ever it is you want. The problem with cheat days is that if you are having a hard time the cheat days might turn into every day. Then if you don't lose as much as you want then you don't know what went wrong.

Well, personally I don't have cheat days I mean who would I be cheating? myself,( I would be cheating myself out of the body I want and that's no fun at least not for me. However I incorporate foods I like within my daily caloric intake. moderation is the key for me but I know a lot of people who have cheat days.

Hello. Is it okay to have a cheat day once a week while following this plan? I currently do not incorporate any cheat days but I was wondering what others thoughts were on this.
