Hey, don't punish yourself.. I always give my self a one day of diet which usually is a Sunday. Then I'm back on my low-carb Monday to Saturday :smile:

That's exactly what I do as well. 6 days low carb then Sunday cheat day.. helps as it is like a reward for me after low carb struggle

Yes because needing a whole day off diet really shows how sustainable your plan really is.

Don't worry make a promise to yourself and follow the instruction hardly without losing confidence and your promise.

We can have a cheat day or cheat meal. Because cheat brakes give us metabolism a bit of a boost by convincing your body the “famine” is over. Your metabolism increases and you're able to break through the stalled weight loss.

Hey! One day isn't going to ruin it believe me. There are 3500 calories in a pound so it's extremely unlikely that you would have put on any weight whatsoever. If you've put any weight on at all it will just be glycogen and water stores that are topped up. Sometimes you have to listen to your body as well and eat what you want. I mean I'm training to be a PT and I am cutting/dieting at the minute but I ate well over my maintenance calories yesterday and have hardly been to the gym this week due to illness but it's fine because I'm back on track today. Look at the bigger picture and look at it from a weekly perspective not day to day.
It depends on how you look at a cheat day, is it a day where you eat what you want or is it a full on binge? That's where your discipline kicks in. I don't think you should have a cheat day next week because you've already refuelled your body. Cheat days are just a way to justify eating a lot without restriction but a better way to do it would be a refeed, where you eat a couple hundred calories over your maintenance) however I would have one in maybe a couple of weeks time. What I would do is have a think about what I would like to eat on that cheat day and incorporate it into my calories throughout the week so that way you can eat whatever and still stay on track. You can still eat chocolate when you're cutting by the way, just make sure you put it into your calories.

I've tried keto did nothing for me and was the hardest thing ever.

It's fine, don't worry about it. I have cheat days and enjoy my life by having delicious meals once a week. Staying healthy and fit is important but it is not good if you are punishing yourself or restricting yourself from eating your favorite delicious food. You should have one cheat meal per week but work hard to get in shape. It would be fine to have your favorite food once a week.
