Week 3

Cravings for sugar, starches and bad carbohydrates are starting to fade away as I have been sticking to my diet strictly without many cheat meals. However, cheat meals do play a role in my weekly routine. When you get a cheat meal, it helps to keep you sane. Therefor helping you stay with the diet or plan longer. If I were to never cheat, I would be craving badly everyday and eventually my will would not be able to defeat the sugars calling my name. So every week (usually on leg or back training days when my body needs the most calories) I will include a cheat meal or two into my routine. This could be made up of chicken wings or pizza. Just make sure it doesn't go to far. A bowl of ice cream and slice of pizza is adequate and then its back to the chicken, turkey, salmon and mixed greens for another 3-4 days. It is hard but the end result and lessons learned are well worth it.
