Cheating On Your Diet? How to Stop!!!
Video taken from the channel: Greg Doucette
Increase water intake If your cheat included foods that are high in sugar, fat and sodium, drinking more water can help your body flush out toxins and any excess water that it may be retaining due to the content of the food you ate. Drink enough water so that you are visiting the potty regularly and your urine is virtually clear in color.Know Your Limits. When you decide to have a cheat or reward meal, set some boundaries.
Keep your “cheating” to a single meal, not a cheat day or a cheat weekend. One meal, that’s it. Many dieters assume that because they dieting hard all week, they can eat whatever they want on the weekends and still lose weight.When you say that you “cheat” on your diet, it implies that you’re doing something wrong or bad and that eventually you must account for it. When you eat something off of your plan, perhaps you should consider it a “reward meal” for a week’s worth of hard work in the gym and in the kitchen.
What To Do When You Cheat On Your DietUnderstanding the Feelings Of Guilt By understanding the mechanics of guilt we can see how can stop us from achieving our goals. The first step to understanding the harm that guilt inflicts upon us when we associate it with food is to objectively understand our behavior with regard to food consumption.Cheat breaks give your metabolism a bit of a boost by convincing your body the “famine” is over. Your metabolism increases and you’re able to break through the stalled weight loss.”Many things happen when you cheat on your diet.
Aside from spikes in blood sugar, inflammation, acne, and swelling, doctors of Chinese medicine have several ways to see what is occurring with the interior ecology of your body,” Acupuncturist Dr. Elizabeth Trattner told me. “The best way for us is to look at your tongue and take your pulses.If you find you’ve created a pattern of cheat meals, “your diet is probably not livable,” says Ms. Taylor.
Many diets are too strict. Everything you eat needn’t be a dietitian’s daydream, she notes. Start with a foundation of fiber-rich produce, whole grains, lean proteins, low-fat dairy, and healthy fats.Cheat days are popular among fitness enthusiasts. You stick to a strict diet for the whole week except for one day when you let yourself eat whatever your heart desires.
Burgers, pizza, ice cream, chocolate, soft drinks, alcohol you’re allowed to eat anything on this one day.“If you overload and do more than your regular routine, you could strain a muscle, you could hurt a joint. So muscle soreness may set in.
Then you can’t exercise,” Laquale says.Cheating within a diet plan involves giving yourself calculated, planned permission to temporarily break strict diet rules. The theory behind this reward-based diet strategy is that by allowing.
If cheating on your diet is a regular ongoing occurrence, then yes, those calories are certainly going to add up and offset your progress in a measurable away. However, as long as you’re hitting your calorie targets with reasonably accuracy in the big picture, a few upward spikes here and there are hardly going to make a difference if any at all.After you cheat it’s best to stay away from your carbs and sugars for the next couple of days, instead eat your proteins and fresh vegetables. More than likely your indulgence already introduced more sugars than you realized, so stay away from the sugars in fruits for just a couple of days.
The only time you should feel guilty about food is if you stole it. But, alas, as anatomy works, if you’re actively trying to lose, not maintain your weight, you do need to be in a calorie deficit.It can be easy to give in to a cheat meal when you’ve had a long day and there’s nothing keto-friendly to eat. To avoid this, stock the fridge up with staples like grass-fed butter, avocados, cheese, and hard-boiled eggs so you’ll always have keto options on hand.
If you’re always on the go, consider packing yourself a keto kit.The idea of a “cheat day” has been around for decades. First, you eat “clean” for six days, meaning you stick to your diet.
Your macros and calories are in check and anything that could be.

Wow, way to undersell Greg Doucette. He’s not just a body builder. He’s our doctor, therapist, chef, coach, teacher, motivational speaker, dietician, and most of all our friend.
Boil tea bags and rub them over the burns while they’re warm it will take it out over night!
i can’t stop laughing at how dr daddy doucette is flexing his jaw and chest while his gf talks
Strange to see Greg explain thing without yelling, actually i like it, sometime he should toned downed depending on the subject, but for the views I think people love to be yelled at, like a coach to his lazy ass audience
These are my two favorite internet peoples. That sunburn yikes
It’s kind of like cheating on your girlfriend but you wake up the next day feeling like real bad.
I’m a 59 year old ex boxer trying to stay in shape. Yours is the most sensible no-nonsense video about cheat days I’ve seen on YouTube. No Hollywood style dramatic inspiration, just level headed facts and how to best proceed after cheating.THAT is real inspiration.Thanks from across the Atlantic.
How can I have a Beer day, allthe way to hangover. What happen?
Seems you repeat yourself a lot… longer video times?? Great video though
I once touched a hot pot as a kid and my hand looked like that…. pls stay safe
I used to think that love could cure anything but it only fed my narc’s enormous ego. It is important to be wise when dealing with a narcissist and I’m glad that cyberhackinggenius helped cloned my wife’s phone. I got access to all her dealings both on phone and social media without touching her phone. I’m here in Nevada USA and able to access my wife’s phone with a cloned app even while she was away in the UK and cheating on me. All I did was share my wife’s phone number with Cyberhackinggenius and I was able to read both her new and deleted messages from my phone through a remote link to a programmed app containing cloned cell information without having to touch her phone. My wife was a cheating Narcissist and I’m glad to find out all her secrets and infidelity with the help of cyberhackinggenius. My wife also tried to use this coronavirus outbreak as a means to get back to me but I’m not stupid enough to allow someone so toxic back into my life. I’m finally going through divorce with lots of evidence against her. I read all her deleted and recent chats on Whatsapp, Facebook, Instagram and the GPS location of her phone at all times. You can contact this great hacker “Gavin” via Gmail (cyberhackinggenius) or text and speak to him directly on his phone and WhatsApp: +19256795146 and thank me later!
I like to think I dont do cheat days have the odd sleep….. cheat day to me is…. I keep a 18pack of eggs in the fridge and on wednesdays I use a few with my breakfast the other 6 days a week I got cartons of egg whites on hand
What if I ate a pizza that’s 1800 calories. And I only eat that, my target calories is 1900 would it still be okay since I’m in a caloric deficit?
I always hate it when I have to eat food that doesnt even taste great but is full of calories.
After 15 days of clean eating, I broke down and ate half a pizza on the 16th day. No regrets.:)
Time for another 15 days of chicken and spinach. yee haw
Beta carotene everyday for 6 weeks before summer and suncream..my Scottish skin goes darker now.
GOTTA DO WHAT EVER IT TAKES GODDAMNIT!! CONFUSE THE VIEWERS, RIGHT BABE?
Thanks for the reassurance man.Got a little stressed that I went a few hundred calories above my target.Funny thing is I’m still in a deficit I guess I’m way too over obsessive about my diet.Not good.
Kenny K.O. says Gregdosett is a bad guy check him out he talks about cycles & the fake nattys in the fitness industry
I buried a dear friend to melanoma (he was 32). Take the sun seriously folks!
Play dota at night, workout before work in the morning, eat right…it works for me Mario haha
Thanks Simon. I ‘fell off the wagon’ today and had a whole Easter egg, 80g of fat. 2 hours later this video drops. It was meant to be, thank you.
Just get a quarter pounder that has more protein than the McDonald’s protein sugar drink
Part of the process is making different mistakes. Love it! Different mistakes equals learning and and that leads to progres. As always, thank you for the value.
So you’re saying I can eat one liter ice cream a day as long as I walk a 1 hour 420 calories walk. Gotcha I’m on it XD
I just go to McDonald’s whenever I want to cheat and have ice cream. Can’t cheat if the machines are down!
He’s holding a pen just to look like he knows what he is talking about
How unhealthy do you have to be to make something healthy, bad for you!?
As long as you’re counting your Macros you can fit that type of stuff in. Like c u e some high calorie foods during the day because you have no choice or stuff with high sugar. As long as you’re counting your Macros and you fit that in. And just watch the rest of the day what you put in your body. You’ll be just fine. Say for instance my maintenance calories is 2500. And if by afternoon I’m out a thousand calories. okay so you just fit that in and monitor your calorie so you don’t go over your maintenance level and you can still burn weight. people get so stuck on this I can’t have this and I can’t have that because it’s going to ruin this it’s going to ruin that. As long as you’re counting your Macros and you don’t go over you can fit that type of stuff in. Is just ridiculous. Like say by the time I get off of work I’m at 1500 calories am I fat is still low. And my maintenance level is 2500 so I fit in a cheeseburger which is 600 I’m still going to be under my maintenance level. You can still enjoy life just watch your Macros
Greg if you make a 500 calorie cut to be in a deficit. Can u use the calories u burned on the tread meal as extra food calories?
I’m also a quarter Irish… you should have sunscreen at your hand all the time.
Dr. Doucette continues to inspire me! Now I bring tons of skinny pop to the beach to absorb more UV light and only drink the juices squeezed out of fruit to acquire that ideal fat bag of milk physique.
First time cutting and 100% want to cheat on my diet everyday, just have to have the willpower
How can this woman argue with Greg about skin cancer? HE’S A DOCTOOOOR!!!!
You guys are funny!! Dont think you can’t die of skin cancer! Take your prevention serious! At least get regular screening so they can test.
Cheat meals make me feel like I’m being born again for the first time.
If you eat at maintenance calories for the one day you cheat, would that take you out the calorie deficit the next day and stop you from losing fat?
The McDonald protein shake has the same calories as a big Mac meal not good. In the U.K. at the moment its hot 32c, and you see all those people walking about without a shirt on no sunscreen bad news.
This girls cheating on her diet for salad! (I know the dressings bad) and I’m eating waffles and shit
you love her because she is contradicting you..haha…
admit it, ita the salt n pepper of the ralationship..
Your girlfriend was a great addition. ��, it offered a very unique dynamic to the channel
I’ll be looking for a new GF in 10 years when she dies of skin cancer……
The sugar shake sounds like a good weight gainer if you ask me
Goes in the sun gets burned, “You’re gonna die!” Lmao �� good stuff lol
Greg is it okay to u stevia 4weeks out for a show. Or do u cut all sugars off?? Thxs brotha
Not true, I have a cheat day on occasion and still lose weight.
What if you do cardio and burn off all the calories from the cheat meal
Wow she just asked her a question and she didn’t take 25 minutes to get to the point
Lovely Video! Sorry for chiming in, I would love your opinion. Have you heard about Dinanlinson Amazing Look Approach (search on google)? It is a good exclusive product for learning how to quickly lose weight without the hard work. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my friend got amazing success with it.
Great video! Excellent information and delivery! I appreciate you ��������
You can cheat every day just make sure you throw up afterwards ��
Wenn u Plan a Cheatmeal, is it better or does it matter if i do this before or After my Workouts? Heard that u should Train before clean refeed day. So wouldnt it be better If i do my cheatmeal After my Workout?
This is not the almighty Doctor Greg. He’s not calling me an idiot.
Here’s what you need to know about bouncing back on track with your diet after you fall off. Understanding this made A LOT of difference on my journey, and I hope my experience can help you as well. -Mario PS. If you want to learn about my biggest dieting mistake which held me back for over a year check out https://youtu.be/sDlLTzmLqHA
i usually loose 1kg after a cheat day(once per week) on my diet
So I’m just about done my 10 week cut and have been dreaming about having a double pepperoni pizza with ice cream and wings the day after this is over and I’m going onto Coach Greg’s plan after. Soooo are you telling me to not to do this? I really want that cheese and pepperoni ��
Great videos! Greetings from Canada ����
The Taco Bell ad before this video isn’t helping, Mario! Haha 😉
Great video, Mario (as always). I noticed that once I switched into systems thinking and process mode, my cutting became sooo much easier. Thinking about past failures, worrying about future results, and all the shame and guilt associated with binge eating all dissapeared. Only the task in front of me and the next iteration were what I had to focus on. That has honestly changed my life in the past month and is something I want to continue to implement on all other things in my life as well.
I cheat every weekend..lol. Just make a day to eat what you want (don’t go overboard) and go back to your diet the next day. As long as you go back to it..You’re fine. You’re not going to lose your gains unless you just said fuck it and eat everything and get lazier.
Lost 38kg but it was first when a lost 8-10 kg that i started to have cheatday every month it never harm me i stil lost bodyfat and weight. one time when i eas sick for 8days or 9day i eated like a cow lol lost 1,7kg started whit workout and be in cal dificit. but ya it depent on the person.
Because of you I lost 18 pounds in one month, got another ten to go to lose all the junk, then do cycle to get lean muscle back on
Hey Sean what about when on a lean bulk, if I go over by around 300kcal can I drop 300 kcal the next day or would that negetively effect muscle gain?
Omg i just ate a whole fucking can of whipped cream heeeeeeellllllllllllllpppppp me
A few times I cheated on my diet. One time I was at a fast food restaurant, Taco Bell. What I had was 5 loaded beefy nacho grillers and a steak and cheese quesadilla plus a fountain drink. By the time my mom saw the receipt, I was in deep trouble.
I was doing so so well on my diet and I could see the difference in my body. Then I gave in and ate an Xl donna kabab plus the rest of my partners wich probably added up to 3500-4000 calories just in one sitting. I feel so so shit that all I want to do is just drink water for days until I can lose the weight again.
I just ate some carrot cake and i eat alot too, i feel like crap after eating it i was screamming help please and your video send me at ease
what happens when you do not cheat? one day, all of a sudden, you go on a mindless overeating run like a bodybuilder after a show
i just cheated on mine!! i bought a “double western bacon cheeseburger” with curly fries at carls jr:( it was greasy and i still ate it. I REGRET IT!!!!!!
what if i had a mental breakdown and ate half a mf sugary empty calories cake, i feel so guity rn
Ally I feel your pain, I go out in the sun for 10 minutes and look like your bikini burn. It hurts so bad and no amount of sun block helps!! I hide inside. And every time I burn I get more moles ��
Is it still considered a cheat if u weight ur icecream and still stay in a deficit. I eat 1800 calories a day does it matter what I eat to stay at 1800 deficit
I can eat cheat meals ( chocolate bar) and still be in a caloric deficit on a 2400 Kcal a day with 3 times cardio / week and i can fill in that 200grams of protein too. It’s so more enjoying when you can eat all your proteins, fats, carbs and still needing some extra to not lose muscle, you just need to find the right foods. I have a question Greg, is there a difference if you eat clean in a caloric deficit or if you eat all day clean and then add a chocolate bar in order to satisfy your caloric needs?
7week and never cheated once but eat alot this weekend more junk food how bad will slow down my fatloss
Hey Greg; PLEASE READ!! I’m doing really well trimming my body fat off… Using a caloric intake of 1500 cal per day ( I stand on my feet 8-9 hrs per day and do moderate lifting during work ) So I’d say I’m at 2000-2200 cal BMR so that’s
500 cal daythen I run 5 miles 3x per week **another 900 cal deficit ( in addition to Ephedrine/ Caff 2x per day ) I’m losing 2.5 lbs per week like clock work for 2+ months… So I’m happy but when I hit 178 ( I’m 195 was 220!! At 5’10!! ) I want to be slim but HARD and shredded.. Now; I just turned 40 I sort of let my muscles go over the years are used to work out hard will I be able to put on muscle at 40 years old with no gear if I upped the calories a little bit I’m very happy with my weight loss I’ve gone down for jeans sizes but bottom line I know you’re busy will I be able to build muscle at 40 years old without gear??I just cheated my diet with potato chips,, I was desperately craving it
hey sean..what you think about my diet…i use intermittening fasting about 18 h fasting and six hours eating..i eat two meals a day 12 and 5 p.m. 1500 calories..i have 64 kilogrames and i want get more visible abs..also i train fasted and i use hit cardio 5-6 day a week because i don t go to the gym right now..do you think it s good for fat loss?
That’s so random, I just started getting into Greg Douchette this week and you mention him in the video
Sean you have the best, to the point fitness videos. Keep up the good work
I just found out they’re throwing me a “surprise” birthday party tomorrow and instead of being a normal person I’m already feeling guilty that I have to have a piece of cake on my birthday. Fitness really makes you weird and obsessed.
When you cheat on your diet, a puppy dies. Save the puppies.
Isn’t the point of a refeed to fix the leptin levels that the diet affects?
Thanks for the informative video bro. How much of a deficit below maintenance do you recommend?
You don’t know what you’re talking about you bald arsehole ����
Good advice Sean, but how does that apply for a cheat meal? I mean your eating more calories of course. Do you recommend just eating as normal the next day, or reduce the calories you regularly eat?
Had a cheat meal tonight. Pizza and loved it! First cheat meal in 2 weeks. I’ll just eat a bit less tomorrow. Back to my salad and T-bone ��
I absolutely love those little animations you added. Makes it look so much better!
Thanks for putting in more time money and effort into making those videos even better!
Not to mention the super spot on amd helpful content:)
not rly hating but how it is even possible to have hairs on your face and still have a babyface
Ephedrine and Synephrine is the best way to stop cheating on your diet, it makes you full for 4,5 hours, 75mg synephrine and 20 30mg ephedrine, and even 7 hours after it will make me full just eating a super small bowl of oats with oats/almond milk and proteinpowder haha
Don’t have cheat meals,,,,,, cheat on your girlfriend instead,, don’t loose gains bro
With all this craziness about Shredz going on lately I’d be interested to see you review their supplements.
So ironic that I literally just ordered my pizza and fucked up my macro’s then this video pops up.
I’ve found that when I take liberties with my diet the best thing I can do to get over it is to have some comfort food.
“Each system is a sign your system could be better” love it! Great way to put
What happens if u have one but have it in ur calories whist main gaining?
More or less been able to keep my calories in check but I’ve started intermittent fasting and feel like my cravings are hard to keep in check especially when it keeps me awake
For me it depends on whether I’m bulking or cutting. Option 1 is better for cutting since calories are the priority and I’m ok with macros taking a hit since I’m not growing. The reverse when I’m bulking so option 2 is better.
Your the most relatable fitness Youtuber. You are honest and seem like a genuinely good person. I see your videos release and i watch them immediately
You’re hilarious, you make a cute couple. love how just raw you are and how your girlfriend is just so casual.
But ur talking about high calories cheat day or about the bad macros like sugars and that stuff
One thing I’m surprised you didn’t mention-and perhaps you think it irrelevant-is BMR. Let’s say you over do it, then try to make up for it the next day. If the amount of reduction to compensate takes you below BMR, isn’t it best to just eat BMR, and chalk the rest up as a loss (or gain, rather)? When I over eat I just get back on my diet. And I never eat at or below BMR, personally. I’m just asking.
Dr. Doucette used to be so calm. I think there are too many idiots that need to be yelled out to get the point across.
Great channel great topics I love your delivery. The “Big” youtubers are great but you bring it down to earth! Thanks Simon
My problem isn’t food really. But I’m a heavy drinker. Beer, wine, Scotch etc. So, I do fairly good during the week but when weekend comes I cant really control myself.
Unless I’ve planned to eat something then it’s not an option. Free food isn’t even considered. I don’t even check the calories, I just skip it. It’s easier than leaving 1% possibility.
Isn’t one day a week a 300calorie surplus good for your muscles?
YOU ALWAYS saved me. I’m literally struggling how to go back on track and I started today. Thanks a lot
I have the solution,it really worked for me: Just stop being and little fat bitch and stop eating.
Can’t say enough how much I appreciate the honesty & just real life talk you have w all of your videos. This is just one of the reasons I purchased your program. Keep the videos coming Sean ����
What I found out that work well for me is to creat a buffer of calories (let’s say 1000 kCal) during “better”days, and then when shooting over my daily aim happens, I feel very comfortable with it, and I do not feel “guilty” for doing it (of course it’s totally f…ed up to feel “guilty”, but that’s whole another topic:) )
Let’s all find out who gave that one thumb down… 😉 This vid stands out, good one Mario, thanks
My daughter just had a birthday and guess where the cake ended up…on my kitchen counter for a whole weekend where I proceeded to have a piece every time I had a coffee. I drink a lot of coffee. The way I reset after that is by doing a 24 hour fast. Strangely enough though, this morning when I woke up to start my fast I looked better than I have in a few months, despite having about 3000 calories in birthday cake over the weekend. Anyway, I always just try to maintain a balance. If I have a bad day(or two) I make up for it the next day and it balances out over time.
i was so close to cheating on my diet, so i came to dr greg for advice and now im not gonna cheat
I overate a little last night after over 5 weeks of being absolutely perfect with my target calories so this video came at the perfect time!
Mario, your advices are really practical and I love that you rationalize it with thorough explanation. You are one of my favorite fitness gurus! Thank you for these videos:)
I on a diet break right now. On it for 2 weeks since dropping to 9% bf for holiday. It’s been nice to relax a little and not always thinking about dropping bf.
Mario I literally just had two nights in a row where I went over by 1500 calories and then you come out with this video. Is the NSA helping you with the timing of your videos? Lol, keep up the good work!
How to stop? It’s easy switch off insuline go keto no craving no hunger no insuline… Its called SIMPLE BIOCHEMISTRY �� ��
A lot of problems are psychological. I know a lot of people that actually have eating disorders and don’t even realize. I used to have ED and was in denial. I regulated my relationship with food and could recover from slip ups a lot more easier. Cheers, great content and topic.
I just ate 2 donuts and a shit load of chips and 3 peanut butter cups
It’s like asking “I did bad on a quiz. What should I do?”
Do better next time. It’s your grade for the course that matters more than a few individual quizzes.
Do fake tans it’s way better than getting that severely sunburned lol ��
Just started a calorie countin’ diet this week. Appreciate this for when I eventually (outside of my cheatday) slip on it.
Holy crap you sounded like a real person before you went full Gilbert Gottfried
I disagree with you. It is totally possible to get ripped as fuck while having a monster killer suicidal cheat day
The Hodgetwins do cheat meal almost every week or every other two weeks and they’re ripped. They’re always going through fast food. As long as you fit it in with your Macros and don’t go over it you’re fine
First! right a few moments before posting i was watching your videos!:D
Eveytime I have cheat meal I be depressed the next day like wtf did I do ��
Who is this coherent well spoken educator? Where is Coach dr. Greg!!
Coach, I really want to know if this is the same for all carbs, or if it’s different between more fibrous carbs and something like rice or potato.
Hey Simon, was wondering if you had any tips for dealing with anxiety about going to the gym and what people think when you’re new and not in great shape, thanks man love the content and you’re a great guy ^^
I havent eaten rice in a month, then tonight dad bought me satay, i ate 15 since dad wanted me to eat the whole thing… It’s hard..
What if you have a cheat meal/junkfood but your still eating in a calorie deficit will you still lose weight but slower or still lose weight as if you never cheated at all.
McDonalds has protein shakes over there??? Fuck me in England the milk machines always broke
thanks alot man i just cheated on my diet and felt guilty as fuck love you videos btw
Sean your lateral head of your delts is massive you loom huge with a shirt on
Yea I was like 2 weeks in and we had a cookout at work and I’m the only white guy we all friends and all but it just looks stupid not eating, and not wanting to be rude so I walk off and some dude was like so u not gonna eat?
Seeing the picture for this makes me really want the tiffin dairy milk �� and then he mentions skittles! ������
im 19 and i think my body fat percentage is around 20-25%. i wanna cut down untill 15-10%. i workout usually 4 or 5 times a week. what do u recommend on my diet?
I didn’t want this video to end. Your best video by far. Thanks
chocolate jelly beans doritos walkers crisps every flavour ice cream washed down with a protein shake….. and I do it every day ��
Thise videos were much better… It is sad that retarded population only sub to his channel if he is yelling and shit…
Does anyone have any healthy swaps for pizza? Every time I go on a diet my family brings home pizza and I can’t stop myself ����
Hmm, so what about instead of counting my daily caloric intake, what about counting my weekly caloric intake? And moderate on what days I eat more (going out) etc, and then the days where I don’t need that many I’ll just go less
i just cheated using a box of ferrera rochers and toasted nutella sandwhiches. so my sins equate to about 1300 calories. it felt amazing at the time but now i feel like crap XD it sucks because my cut was going so well lol as usual the advice here really helps thanks sean:)
Before the scream. Honestly listen either way. Whatever makes it authentic
Low calorie dense food is what people have to try to binge or just drink some water or diet pop
This man looks like my Doctor, but he doesn’t yell at me like my Doctor.
#1 dont watch food videos or see food thumbnails..always gets to me.
As always, great video, Sean. Can you or anyone here tell me if you’ve done a video about the effects of alcohol on working out/fat lass/gains/etc?
I cheated on my diet after going strong for 30 days and losing 14.1kg
I hate the trend of calling everything “protein”. protein bar, protein shake, protein cookies, etc. Then when you look at the nutrition facts, its like 6g of protein for 200 calories.
I know this is an old video, but any thoughts on how much of that cheat day you’re actually absorbing? My chinese buffet cheats are rare but so far over the top they’re probably at least 5000 thousand calories AND THEN I’ll get home and smash more junk. Am I automatically in the hole 10,000 calories or is some of that just shat out?
The skin cancer comments on this video didn’t age well Dr. Greg.
Amazing video Sean! Thanks a million for sharing this type of information with us.
In my opinion you really improved the quality of the content! Keep up the good work!
Greg were you high or just the sun in your eyes????? Lmao do more videos together they are hilarious
I wish I hadn’t seen this video… sometimes ignorance is bliss and knowledge is the folly…
My friend’s father in law died of squamous cell carcinoma (a skin cancer). It happens.
Coach Greg, what if we are losing weight too fast (I.e. 4% of body weight/week). I realized my calories are too low but can I do a cheat before I adjust them for next week?
Sure, you won’t be losing fat if you cheat, but you also won’t be losing muscle. Just saying. You forgot to mention that.
Why is this recommended to me after I devoured 5 pieces of French toast and half a glass of Nutella
Normally have cheat meal on Friday but go pree crazy unfortunately cas I also smoke pot and its hard to stop… to combat it I’ll do fasted cardio next day aka not really fasted cas binged from last night and not even hungry… after that I’ll eat normal meal and do efedra and go to gym after and get giant pump… the cardio plus efedra seem to do the job never really get fat even after like a 3k cheat… Greg any opinions on this protocol?
COMPLETE shit I’ve gone from 450lbs down to 280lbs in 10 months and I have a cheat meal/or even just have Saturdays off eating WHATEVER I want and it hasn’t effected me in any way shape or form it’s physically IMPOSSIBLE to gain weight in a single sitting/day. One day a week doesn’t outweigh the other 6
Well I got to confess, the past 2 weeks been eating clean been getting 1000 to 1500 of calories since I want to cut and my body was kinda there with visible 2 pack, but today my dad bought some pineapple donuts couldn’t resist so I ate 3 of them with regular milk, then got an ice cream sandwich, and a whole bag of doritos so in total was 1700 calories I feel bad but is it going to affect my diet?I usually just eat some oatmeal and some tuna wraps I still exercise 5 times a week sometimes 6. I think my 2 pack disappeared:/
How about a cheat meal on a lean bulk?? Would it still be glycogen??
Of the finess/muscle building community, along with AthLeanX, I regard you as the best, and the inspiration to start my own channel, which I regard as a potential stepping stone to your programs, or for those who don’t wish to work out in a gym or commit to quite your level of bodybuilding via the cut & bulk approach.
Hey Sean, I’m pretty damn lean right now but not as much as i would like to (a.k.a shredded). Tried lowering my calories even more for the past 8 days but apparently that triggered my hunger and the last 3 days I screw up and ate roughly 3500 cals but only from carbs, pretty much a 3 day refeed. Should I lower my calories for the following days or go back to were I was before all this? Much love and support from Argentina!
Vince Gironda recommended a small carb meal every 4th day, not enough to bloat you; just enough to replenish minimal glycogen stores and stimulate the metabolism. 1 hashbrown patty would suffice. If you eat till bloated it damages the metabolism and slows progress.
thank you for this bcos right now i cheated XD lol �� but what most interest me and enlighten me by this video is nobody is perfect. yeah so true. thank you for that phase dude. you save my night XD
Wud u class a high protein lean calorie surpluss meal to b a cheat once a week if your super lean?
I’m 5’7″ 169 pounds and a lot of stomach fat, I feel like at that weight I should be a lot thinner
you just answered my question as to why I can’t get rid of my visceral fat, I eat about 1900 calories a day and the only place I need to lose fat is my stomach, but I cheat every Saturday night
I know I’m late but I try to do cheat meals only every 3 weeks so for me I never notice really a weight gain just epic pump the next day ����
I’m so confused is it ok to have sugar as long as your in your calories
When I cheat on my diet I go until my stomach is about to explode and I feel sick and then throw it up and eat a chicken breast. Boom 6% bf
Perfect timin for this video! I recently went over my calorie intake and was wonderin what I should do lol
What about for macros? Like if I went over with carbs or fat one day…could I eat less of each the next day to balance it out?
If your fat and you want to stay fat then you can add some cheats lol if your fat and want to lose fat don’t cheat
Australians live with skin cancer its like getting a cold over here
I was here how to stop cheating in relationships but this works too!
I heard that it takes 3 days to make and store fat is this true?
Hey this was a great video. Makes me feel so much better about me eating like crap. Lol
You look a little green. Maybe its the shirt with the background. Anyways, you are still my favorite Simon!
It’s the sugar addiction…worse than Heroine. Cut all sugars/carbs for a week and see what happens. I ended up at the emergency room with withdrawals. Must be gradual. Baby steps.
I like this guy. He’s not extreme, he’s not too mellow; just practical and moderate.
Everytime Greg picks up Baby Nakey, I slightly worry Greg might accidentally sqeeuze too hard.
i was about to cheat on my girlfriend, but doc kept me from doing it:)
Your English is really great….infact apart from the fitness info….I have learnt a lot of new phrases in the language ��
I’ve been watching all these videos the last week. Why couldn’t I have found them at the beginning of the quarantine
Omg you guys live in Ontario? So freaking awesome! I would die if i run into you guys at a Costco or something! ����… i have never heard of a protein shake at McDeees…. the amount of sugar sounds gross…
First 2 weeks of quarantine and now I’m back on track. Let’s open gyms. I’m ready again. No more cravings.
I also would like to add that directly after your cheat meal to get your program back on track asap eating broccoli is good because its a quick way to detox the body of any junk you may have consumed.
I have no idea what the pizza i ate and ice cream was for calories but I had 1300 calories to spare when i ate them maybe im all good.
If your thinking about having a big chest meal JUST DO IT. Most of us who workout regularly won’t see a difference from one cheat meal.
Why is it called “Cheating,” are you married to your food? Do salads envy burgers like old women despise young women? ��
Thanks Simon for the advice mate have a good day and stay safe mate
Started a new diet only and fitness regime a week ago then my girlfriend’s gran was rushed into hospital last night, found myself munching on a whole pack of cookies and 3 bags of Doritos in the space of an hour waiting on news at 5am. Feel terrible and exhausted today, so this is exactly what I needed to hear.
Buff Dudes are a great channel for healthy foods that are super good and tasty I eat a lot of what they post haha Great video Simon!
Good tip for cheat meals is to plan and buy it in early. Cos then your brain can look forward to it rather then getting to the day and choosing somthing crazy.
Its hotdogs and Curly fries for me this Sunday wooooooo!
I know it’s not important but skittles are the best sweets ever ����
Cheating on your diet is not like cheating on your wife. We all make mistakes. The mistake wasn’t violating your diet. The mistake was committing to a diet that you could not follow. Make a plan that takes into account your appetites and weaknesses. Don’t let it be cheating; let it be a pre-planned indulgence.
Dear Mr. Miller…I chanced upon your channel and thought “There’s a hot looking bloke, lets take a look” TO MY SURPRISE you are not just another pretty face. I binged watched a LOT of your posts and found out that you are Smart, Articulate (you must have kissed the Blarney Stone cause you got the gift of gab) Considerate, Educated, and have tons of Heart and Common Sense (of which there is a big shortage these days). I’ve learned a lot and enjoy watching your episodes. My upmost respect and kudos. Keep up the awesome job.
I would have thought you should mention how many cals can someone take in on a 24 hour period. One huge cheat meal will not gain the same fat as 3 smaller cheat meals. Its important to understand how much is wasted.
Thank you Sean for all of your awesome videos. Your videos stand out like a shining star! You are gifted in how you present your points, a natural speaker!
I genuinely enjoy your videos. Half because I’m an American and your accent is sick and half because you’re very informative. Very down to earth fitness advice. “Cheers” as you redcoats like to say.
As a black guy the concept of the sun literally microwaving you is hilarious.
I do a half marathon every 3 days on my rest day….. cheat meals aren’t a thing for me. Not eating enough calories is a bigger issue
Sean I like your videos but for the love of god stop shaving your side burns all the way off.
Me: Very health and fitness conscious, and on a very strict diet
My mom: Out of the blue sends me 5 dozen of my favorite cookies
Me: So, looks like I’m “bulking” this week
When your watching this on vacation in Greece when you were already supposed to be shredded….
Can I get a rip in the chat
It helps when I cheat to stop about halfway through and wait 30 minutes by watching tv or taking a bath, then see if I want more cheat food. I usually don’t, and it’s helped with damage control.
Good vid balanced diet and not having Temptations in the house Will reduce binge days to bad pizza is Just one call away
i would just IF for 24 hours and that only meal just keep everything moderate or sightly less
Depressed=eat. Anxious=eat. Bored=eat. Thanks for the reminders on brain chemistry Simon!
Just went on a three day binge full of Easter candy lmao I stupidly stepped on the scale and saw an 8 lb increase. Needless to say a lot of salad and chicken breast is in store for me in the next couple days
So, since we’re on this topic… I would be very interested in knowing how often Simon has a cheat meal and what a typical one would look like? Or maybe some items that he would reach for first or would have to make sure to include on a cheat day.
I like the canadian accent the…american accent is like a accent from Liverpool England just horror noise…
Very well put! Thank you. I cheated on my diet today… It’s hard having your boyfriends korean mother bringing over dakdoritang (korean spicy chicken and potatoes) I couldn’t resist lol.
You used to put these talks on podcast. Wish you did that again. Very informative and I get a lot out of them while I’m trying to exercise from home.
…for me there is no cheatday or cheatmeal…just fun-day or a fun-meal…cheat is sooo negative that you feel gulty after that meal…i do it once every 10 days and i feel great����

Great vid except I would say that any fat in the cheat, would be quickly stored as bf. There is a big difference between a say 1000 Cal or more cheat that has up to 20 grams of fat, and one that has 50. Any protein may go to build some muscle (within reason), the Carbs will all go to the muscles and liver thus stopping fat burning, and every single gram is going to be shuttled into adipose tissue at a +90% efficiency ratio because the body is extremely good at storing ingested fats. And don’t cheat on carbs above the threshold that you are deficient in storage capacity. In other words, if completely carb depleted, eating more than 400 to 600 Calories will then begin lipogenisis (carb to fat conversion.)
My take: no cheat, just calculated refeeds with smart, but yummy food sources…no fatty dairy, fatty meats, fatty pastry, ect. A knarly spaghetti dinner with a meatless sauce and a restaurant grilled chicken breast on the side with frozen yogurt on the way home with your honey is much better than a burger, fries, and a shake or a 16″ pizza.
My perspective. Love the content and group that congregates here.
Last time I got here this early Simon was still on the WhatCulture gaming channel regularly
