Have one cheat day a month.

I try to have a cheat day once a month in order to eat what a I want.

MORE INFORMATION:
We have to face it, there are alot of items wth high calorie and it is hard to just have one. I have this cheat day because I can not believe I can eat the whole kitchen on that day but just have the desires of my taste buds. It is simply a cheat day to reward myself for doing so well 29-30 days

If you spill red wine on a white carpet, you just clean it up, not pour on more.

We all have days when we don't follow our nutrition goals, when we eat so much we feel really, really bad later. Sometimes it's tempting to just keep on going like this because after all, we blew it once again right? Wrong. Just like you can get any stain out if you act quickly, you can turn yourself around by thinking about what you did and how you can prevent it next time.

MORE INFORMATION:
Allow yourself "cheat" days once in a while, maybe once a month. Don't count your calories that day, eat whatever you've been craving and only eat until you're full. When you have a craving write it down and then on cheat day see if you still feel like eating it.
