If you exercise… do you watch your diet?

And if so, do you take cheat days?

I’m having a burger and a decadent dessert

I’m just aiming for big numbers in the gym now so I’m not really watching what I eat but when I’m trying to shift a bit of body fat I have a home cooked cheat meal one week which isn’t too bad along with a chocolate bar or something sweet and a takeaway the week after without the sweet treat.

I've fallen off the wagon and the last two weeks have gone to pot. Now my jeans are uncomfortable.

Back to watching what I eat again from tomorrow (insert cry emoji)

Cheat days are fine - so long as you share your decadent dessert

I’m in the process of losing weight and do a lot of walking during the week.

However, Saturday is my designated cheat day and it’s only a takeaway.

have slipped back somewhat this last year, but dropping off crisps and similar plus 90% off Ice Cream and resisting the temptation is a gold badge for me now after a lifetime of consuming them, taking anything else away long term would be a hard act to follow.. Sadly.

I didn’t think I would be but when training first a recent competition I became a component of IIFMM and thought I’d hate it but it was actually quite easy to do.

It also allowed me not to have to be too strict with my diet or stress too much about any missed sessions. Moderation is the key

I try to watch my diet because consuming shite makes me feel bloated and generally a bit bleurgh. I don't think it's healthy to focus purely on how a poor diet can make you look though that's obviously the biggest concern for a lot of people. So the idea of cheat days doesn't work for me. That's just a day where I fancied eating something that I wouldn't normally eat.

I tend to eat the same things fairly regularly so I know what works for me diet wise and what doesn’t. I am not religious about it but I get the benefits just through habit. My overall weekly intake will have some junk in it but that’s part of the plan/habit.

When I used to time trial yesrs ago, I never watched what I ate. I went out on the bike pretty much everyday, so I could basically eat what ever I wanted.

I never diet or watch what I eat. I've put some weight on lately but thats because I'm not stressed.

I eat way too much and should probably be more careful

Stress is an awesome diet! That and been generally fucked off with things/people.

Happiness make me eat, which is why I avoid it.

Never - what exactly is the point in having "cheat" days if dieting? surely only one you cheat in that respect is yourself.

Intermittent fast everyday. Train like fuck. Eat healthy first 2 meals of the day then eat whatever I like at night time.

Carrying a bit of excess body fat but I do love pizza and don’t give a monkeys!

Going to experiment doing a 3 day water fast for new year so I’ll see what that does to the body.

Yes, I exercise and watch my diet. I don't have whole cheat days but might just have the one cheat thing a day, like now it's a mince pie for dessert where usually I don't have desserts at all. Obviously there'll be no more of those after Christmas.

Diet is always where I fell off. I'm only now finding recipes that are both healthy and taste amazing so I'm I'm hoping that this time starting work outs again I'll stay on the wagon

I'm usually very good and consistent with my diet during the week and hold off on the sweet snacks and then go absolutely ballistic on the weekend

"Cheat" meals are a dysfunctional way of looking at food. It reinforces the idea that food can't be both good for you and satisfying to eat.

In the majority of cases the issue isn't what people eat, but how much of it. Overconsumption is a symptom of living comfortably in an affluent society where most foods are plentiful and cheap, but scarcity and rationing are still in our cultural memory so we still teach our kids to eat as much as they can whenever food is available, even though most of them have sedentary lifestyles.

I reckon most people could eat 25% less than they currently do, get used to it in a matter of days, and see only positive results.

I exercise so that I can continue eating crap at the volume and frequency that I do.

I'm basically a fast-moving garbage disposal unit ??

Some folks really didn’t like the terminology.

Cheat day is what my PT - a female cage fighter who fights unisex - calls them, and I have no problem with it.

My body is in the best shape it’s ever been in - I’ll stick to what’s working. And the burger / dessert was delicious.

Really well said

26% of adults obese and 38% overweight, just in the uk. And it’s not slowing down

Within the next 10-15 years we’re gonna reach a point when half the people are too fat, unless something changes
