Choose which day you are going to cheat... If tomorrow I need you to weigh yourself first thing in the morning as soon as you get up and tell either me or Jody if you gained or lost weight and how much... you MUST weight yourself the morning before your meal. If Sunday is your cheat meal, then weigh yourself Sunday morning. Notice we are talking about a cheat meal NOT a cheat day. If you want to screw up everything you have done so far than go ahead and be ridiculous on your cheat meal... you need to learn how to incorporate "smart cheats." A smart cheat meal would be your wine, your breads (within reason) and a dessert. Your main course doesn't have to be stupid, nor does your appetizer if you choose to have one. For me the cheat meal is all about the dessert.... not the entire meal. Don't get yourself drunk and don't walk away from the table feeling like a glutton. You earned your cheat meal so treat it with respect and enjoy it.
P.S. DO NOT forget to weigh yourself first thing in the morning the day of your cheat meal and report back to me and Jody right away.

Hey Tom!
ReplyDeleteWould you mind giving us an example of your cheat meal /dessert?
Couple pieces of bread with olive oil, maybe a reasonable appetizer, a normal entree... I may have a slice of pizza if it is available, but I try to keep it thin crust and very little cheese. I live for my favorite dessert from Houlihan's which I share with Jody (carmel nut crunch pie). If I eat the whole thing when eating clean I get sick as hell... it's huge. Nonetheless, you get the idea. My goal is to walk away from the table without feeling like a fat bastard.
ReplyDeleteI weighed 283 this morning. I will be going out tonight with the wife.
ReplyDeleteWhy can't we cook with extra virgin olive oil???
ReplyDeleteBob - always post under most recent posts for the week... olive oil smokes at a very low temperature making it unstable; when oil smokes it is not good... the fats actually become harmful instead of beneficial. Buy Spectrum oils and look on the side of the label at safe cooking temperatures for those particular oils.
