It helps to have just one bad meal or two small meals, no matter what it is, and then go back on your clean eating diet the rest of the day. The best way to handle a cheat day is to have a small portion of whatever it is you really want. By eating small portions, you get the taste, the flavor and then enjoyment without getting the guilt and the calories! Try it and see if you are satisfied.
It's easier to stick to clean eating when you KNOW that you'll be able to eat something you like or want in two days. Yesterday I told you that a cheat day can shock the system, it can, but physically, if you cycle your food right your body doesn’t need a cheat day..... It's more a mentally need.
Try to stay responsible. Even on cheat days keep an eye on the total calorie intake. Remember this is a treat; you don’t want to blow it. You also might be surprised to find what you eat will leave you feeling sluggish. This is due to your new style of eating. Once you get back to the good stuff your body will function better. Better gas in the car the better it runs.
