I am horrible lately I have been having entire “cheat” weekends! Basically at the beginning of my weight loss I would count points (WW) during the week and on the weekends I would just try and eat healthy and consciously. This has worked so far unfortunately about 2 weeks ago I had an infection in my tooth that literally took me off my plan. I couldn’t chew anything from the pain so I was drinking and eating anything that resembled baby food. Once the pain was gone and I could finally eat regular food. I have been eating anything in sight, trying desperately to get control!

I am going to try and get back on track this week and next with no cheat days.

I can't let myself have a "cheat day" because rather than eating a reasonable number of calories for such a day (what would you say, 2000-2500 calories once a week?, the rest of the week cycling 1400-1700 calories) I go overboard and use it as an excuse to eat waaaaay too much junk food. Instead I try to have a day I might call a "higher calorie" day of 2000-2200 calories, usually on the weekend. Often I end up slipping a day or two anyway, eating too much, and trying to eat at the bottom of my calorie range the rest of the week to repent. Even after losing all this weight I still have bad eating habits. They are the bane of my existence. *dramatic sigh*

I can't do "cheat" days. I've tried and failed. Usually on the weekend I eat a few more calories than usual but at least at this point in the game, I can't do cheat days.

I do a cheat day once per week. It's always planned, usually Friday or Saturday. I don't go too crazy, or I'll make myself sick. The next day, I really minimize my calories. There's no way I can succeed if I can't eat bad food sometimes. It's easy knowing that hey, if I want to go to McDonald's, I can go Friday. Keeps me motivated.
