Comfort food for cheat day

At some point in your life, you will or have claimed to go on a diet or a cleanse. You vow to yourself to hit the gym five times a week and to live on the berry and twig diet for the next however many months it takes to get that desired look you want. You tell yourself to drink anything but water and to resist those urges to go out and buy yourself a large fry from McDonald’s.

The first week or two you are off to a good start, eating nothing but what today’s weight- loss experts and body builders say is the best thing for you. You bust your butt off at the gym after work for two hours and then do it all again the next day. Nothing will stop you from eating bad food! You shouldn’t eat any bad food while on your weight loss journey, right?
Wrong! Have a cheat meal or a cheat day every once in awhile!
