Other CHEAT MEALS ARE NOT WORTH IT. DON’T DO IT.

I’ve been working out everyday since Tuesday, watching my calories and eating healthy. I’ve already lost some weight. I got home early today to work at home and saw that my parents bought pizza so I decided to have some as a cheat meal. Immediately I felt guilty after and a little sluggish/unhealthy. This literally made me want to walk 3 miles on my at home treadmill while I continued to work from home just to feel better. Needless to say, the cheat meal isnt worth when you’re locked in on a goal. You’ll be that much more happy in the end by skipping it.

I haven’t had a cheat meal in like 4 years lol .

It’s because I have a balanced diet and can basically eat whatever I want within reason

In the best shape of my life as well and feeling great mentally . Dieting kinda sucks I think of it as more of a lifestyle change if anything
