How often should I have a cheat day? (Read Description)

Question

So I’ve heard it’s important to have chest days while losing weight because it keeps your metabolism from slowing down. My question is how often should I have a cheat day if I’m losing around 1 - 1.5 lbs per week?

Answer

I say it depends on you. I have a cheat day once a week cause i know if i go longer than that ill just binge out terribly.

Answer

No cheat days. Don't restrict yourself from foods. Everything in moderation. 
There is theory that eating 300-500 more calories than usual once a week can help your metabolism but a lot of people can lose weight without that (I have.)

Answer

I would say having a maintenance week once a month at most where you're eating at your maintenance calories but still in moderation would be better than one day a week going crazy eating food that is bad for your body

Answer

Experts say do a cheat MEAL instead. Personally it helps because it doesn’t feel like I threw a whole day away lol. A healthy breakfast and lunch makes me feel better about spoiling myself for dinner.
Also never beat yourself up or feel guilty about indulging. You’re allowed to eat the food you love. 
Best of luck!❤️
