Every now and then I try to have a day where I eat more then I usually do. This day usually falls on a weekend or a holiday, and occurs no more then 3 times a month. I have been trying to stay cut for the summer parties so I have not been having a thyroid shocker day, and I feel I have lost to much weight I was down to 183 before the weekend. So I treated myself to some cheesecake factory and it was amazing.
Now you may consider this a “cheat” day where I am “cheating” on my “diet”. Diet is not a term I like to use, because it has become common thought that you can go OFF your diet once your ON it.
This OFF and ON dieting is what leads most diets to disaster.
So get rid of the term “diet” and start saying that your just eating a bit healthier.
Having a day where you let loose is a good thing, your body gets used to the way your eating and will adjust. This can lead to a weight loss plateau, so every now and they you should shock your body with an adjusted calorie intake. And Hell you deserve it for working your ass off so hard in the gym and sticking to a cleaner healthier way of eating all week.

Here is a known list from the Environmental Working Group of the 12 highest contaminated produce. From the Highest amount of contaminants to the not so high.
No amount of cleaning can wipe away the pesticides because the pesticides are grown with the produce. To avoid these “Obesogens” and pesticides simply buy the organic versions of the above produce.
Stay tuned for the “Clean fifteen” and what “Obesogens” are doing to slow down your weight loss.
