Whats your favourite Cheat meal?

[kiwiguy2008]

Kia Ora everyone.

Ok, as the subject line suggests, just wondering what everyone's favourite cheat meal is?

OR.... are you super mega dedicated and a cheat meal is taboo?

i like pizza, but its just a normal meal to me :pfft:

[Truds]

Mine used to be pizza, but since I moved my favourite pizza place is too far away to get to :cry: so now I have to find a new one. I'm working hard trying to find a new one though *watch this space* :pfft:

Im a kfc fan,Theres nuthn like good tastn chicken.

[Pseudonym]

I eat plenty of things that could be classed as cheat meals, but lasagne has to be my fav. I haven't had it for years, either. I need to find me a good little Italian restaurant.

[Dumbelldog]

Pizza is the best cheat IMO

[SamWelly]

I dont do cheat meals.

Dont see the point.

Maybe a Latte (Instead of black coffee), or some Ice Cream once in a while. But thats about it.

After a while of eating Brown Rice, Broccoli and Chicken your tastebuds adapt to the bland foods and anything else is too flavoursome. Well for me at least...

When I was on a 9-week fatblaster diet, I'd have sworn blind that I wanted fish-and-chips...funny thing is, when I came off it, I didn't :think:

So now I reckon it'd have to be a good curry :nod:

[MasterTel]

Hmm, that depends if I've got savoury or sweet cravings at the time.

For savoury my fav would be chicken, brie and cranberry pizza with a large glass of red vino. For sweet - my wife's white chocolate and passionfruit cheese cake!!

Damn, now I'm REALLY hungry! :nod:

exactly wat i was thinking! it would be interesting to get ppls interpretations on wat they think a cheat meal is.

to one person wat they see as a cheat meal might not be seen as a cheat to another person, so when someones says they dont do cheat meals maybe they are actually eating them in someone elses eyes.... just to get u thinking

Lately Ive been having honey chicken (deep fried) with fried rice from Noodle Canteen and some icecream, sometimes a couple of BK combo's to lol.

I think there is a big benefit to having cheat meals, especialy as you get quite lean.

You want to keep your metabolism cranking, which can be hard to do while dieting hard, PLANNED cheat meals are a great way to do this.

Basic guid lines:

If your over 15% you dont need cheet meals

1st 2 weeks of dieting you dont need cheets

@ 12% once a week have 1 cheat meal, prefferably around a heavy lifting day e.g. the night before or strait after a leg workout.

@ 10% once every 5-6 days have a cheet meal

@ 6% once every 4-5 days have a slightly extended cheet meal ie refeed for a few hours

under 5% every 4 days have half a day to refeed

Obveously you need to use your descretion around competition time, and see how your bouy is reacting.

Your muscles will look and feel fuller, you'l be stronger and have better workouts and mental focus will be much better. And you should not gain any fat from these cheets, your body is depleted and all the extra fuel will put you in an anabolic environment.

PLANNED cheat meals

LOL how many times can you spell "cheat" wrong

[SamWelly]

How is crap food going to help you? Are you using it to shock your matabolism into slowing down, then speeding up?

What do you define as a cheat meal? And who goes over 15% BF in the year???

[SamWelly]

I'm asking all that in an I honestly don't know the answer tone by the way :wink:

[IronGame]

During dieting phases your body is only processing a small amount of cal so everything slows down, when you have a high cal cheat meal your body suddenly has a massive excess of food and cal to process drasticly speeding up the rate at wich it does so, when you go back to your normal diet food the body is still working at an excelerated pace, so you burn the cal faster than before the cheat.

[SamWelly]

Makes sense. Cheers bro

Do you still supplement your protein on top of the meal?

For an example, a whole Pizza and 200 grams of chicken or 6 Scrambled eggs?

I am a big eater :pfft:

everyone will have a different perception on wat a cheat meal is to them... to me personally and example of a cheat meal would be 2 pizza huts instead of just one :pfft: but seriously i dunno. and na dnt go over 15%
