      Wtf is cheat day?

      Oh wow, thanks for all the replies, guys xD
      I just wondered what would happen if I am cutting on 2k kkal daily and eat 4000kkal, say, once per week or two weeks.
      So all of these kkals will be digested and they all count, right?

      What would happen is you would likely lose weight at a slower rate than if you weren't to incorporate a cheat.

      Just add up your weekly deficit and subtract 2000 calories from it to get an idea of what your Total Deficit is for the week. It might slow progress a little, but if it helps you stick to your diet long term then why not.

      I wouldn't do a cheat day. Like everyone else said it's basically a day off of your diet.

      Instead, I would do one cheat meal a week. You get to eat your favorite food, but it will likely only put you a couple hundred calories over your goal, rather than a couple thousand.

      HAHA, yes I know you didn't. I was saying that some users are a bit too sensitive to these sort of issues and thus MIGHT.

      I had assumed this was what BDeblo was saying, if not supporting. But I may be wrong.

      no worries brutha.

      Care to expand on benefits of a carb up vs refeeds? Benefits? Uses?
