May be better to NOT have the cheat day if you are worried about your waist measurements.

Over to you though

I should know better but don’t want to control myself at all anymore.

I don’t mean to be rude, but this is pathetic man. Jesus christ you go back and forth giving yourself cheat days and giving up on the diet all the time. Do you want to lose weight?

Man up for gods sake. Think of the last time you hit on a girl and got turned down, or looked in the mirror and didn’t like what you see. It’s not that hard to say no. Be strong willed, don’t be a girl about things. goddamnit this thread made me mad.

Why is it that most people do not post pics of themselves in a bodybuilding forum? (not directed at you but in general). That is the same answer I use for why I can’t diet properly.

However, besides my birthday bulk, I have lost weight every 2 weeks for the last 26 weeks, albeit at a slower pace than most other people could have done it.
