Do you ever have days where you eat at or close to maintenance? And how often ?

If I crave food I just think about how close I am to the end of my cut and be like "I'll satisfy this craving after the cut is done"

Also having set times for meals helps alot. I eat four times a day and keep it at 1600kcal. It gets easy pretty fast, your body gets used to it.

This. I used to crave the fuck out of Muffins and cereal after the first week of my cut. Don't even think about it anymore. Although I did have a bit of a crash today and loaded up on breadsticks, but that was because my glycogen was depleted, and I wasn't thinking straight.

I don't really have problems with cutting but I've noticed a strange thing lately. I'm on week 3 of my cut now and while physically I feel great I've noticed that my mental gains are suffering like crazy. I feel more depressed and I've been having more intrusive thoughts lately.

Weirdly the last time my mental patterns went to shit like this was when I was a fatty, and getting fit helped tremendously. In truth my life is a hundred times better now then it was back then, but still I can't stop the thoughts.

Just cheat like once or twice a month. Not gonna any damage to your cut anyway.

Cheating makes you weak. Very soon the cheats become more often if you lack self control. At the same time not cheating ever makes you insane.

I have "cheat days" every Sunday where all I eat the entire day is a large pizza and a protein shake – the total calories for the day are still only roughly my TDEE, so I'm not gaining anything.

So is a cheat DAY alright once a month? And do you guys tend to eat a little less on the days following the splurge?

The only cheat meals I have on a cut is when I'm out with friends or family.
