To me, it helps psychologically more than anything. I guess some of you can't afford cheat days...? Depends on what you mean by cheat days. My cheat days are when I have a really good T-bone or Porterhouse steak or orange roughy, something I normally don't have every day because it's too expensive. That's my cheat day and it's every bit as good as a bite of chocolate candy or whatever. Marsha/Ohio |
