Go Have a Cheat Meal

We are all guilty of cheating on our diets from time to time and can also feel guilty about doing it. So why do we cheat anyways? This thread is going to address this question. You will also learn how often you should cheat on your diet and supplements that should be
taken before and after a big cheat meal.

Too strict a diet can sometimes cause many problems such as headaches, fatigue, depression, anxiety, and wanting to be unsocial. If you're feeling a severe drop in mood, you're probably restricting too much, too fast." You may also be out with a couple of friends one night and they say, "Hey, do you want a beer," or the best one yet, "How about a piece of pizza." On special occasions like these or when you feel that you need a treat from the past few weeks, then cheating is okay.
Just don't make a habit out of it.

From a health perspective, using a cheat day as an excuse to gorge yourself is horrendous. It's fine to have cookies, cakes, soda, pizza, etc., but the key is to not gorge yourself. You should use your cheat meal as an chance to eat anything you want, but not everything
you want. Eat enough to enjoy the food, but don't over do it. Speaking personally, I cheat once a week to satisfy my cravings.

So how do I go about preparing for my cheat meal? You better be guessing that I am prepared supplement wise to keep myself from feeling guilty afterwards. I also need to decide if I really need a cheat meal or if it's just a craving that I normally get from time to time. The first thing I do is take a thermogenic fat burning supplement and a healthy fat source such as fish or flax seed oil. I'll
then wait twenty minutes to decide if I am still hungry and if I am, then I will get something such as pizza, lasagna, or spaghetti. Then I might go eat a few cookies.

I know of no one who can go their entire life without eating something that's bad for them, and if someone ever tells me that they don't ever cheat, I know they are lying! Another reason people can't stick to their diet long-term is because they think that they have to be
perfect all of the time. Live a little and go have a cheat meal!

Chris
