Not from eating, but I do not exercise one day/week.

I'm pretty much exactly like Onederchic. 2 days off from my workouts but never really from my plan. The only thing I do differently on my days off is have some air-popped popcorn flavored with those popcorn salts with my husband while we play some magic the gathering or watch a movie. Otherwise I eat the same.

No, not when I'm trying to lose weight. I work out and eat on plan everyday but alternate cardio and weights so I in effect get a rest. I find that now I'm in my 40s its hard to lose weight so I really can't afford a cheat day.

I definitely take rest days from my exercise - I feel like its important to give my body a break, so I almost always take one day a week off from the gym. However, some weeks if I'm feeling really good, I will do a shortened workout on my off day as well.

I don't have cheat days from my eating plan though - I journal everything, everyday. Which isn't to say I don't have treats. I just plan around them and budget them into my plan for the day. I also try to limit that to once a week, just so I don't go overboard!
