Diet Diary: No Harm on Having a Cheat Day!


Source

Hey Hey! 

Sorry I wasn't able to blog yesterday much since I just started reading this book...which I will share after I finished reading it. I swear this is something different than the previous books I've featured in this post. 


Okay going back to the original post.

I will share to you one thing that dieters usually do - cheat day! 

Cheat day is the only day that you can eat whatever you want. And what I mean in whatever IS whatever. You can think of it as stuffing yourself so full that you can't move after - that kind of feeling.

I've been advised before that restricting yourself too much will backfire so having at least one cheat day is okay. I remember that when I was dieting I was seriously not eating with my family since my mom and dad loves to cook delicious dishes on a daily basis that I want to hurl myself underground just to escape the scrumptious feast they made. 

I kinda blame my parents and my eating habits, but thankfully I am able to curb my cravings because of my cheat day. My cheat day only occur on Saturday or Sunday - depending when my mom will be cooking. 

In my perspective, Cheat day is not really a day you stuff yourself full till you explode, I think it would just be a day for you to enjoy something you don't eat on a daily basis. And also if you eat the same thing over and over again you'll get tired from it and just quit eating it. It's kinda absurd right? But that's how our minds work. 

And you know what there is actually a diet named after this! Its so crazy but its true! You can check out other articles regarding this on the internet. 


But moreover, I could just say that eating healthy all the time has it perks, but cheating for at least one day in your week to enjoy something bad is not bad at all. Just moderate it so you won't go over board. 

Do you have a cheat day? 

Let me know below! Have a nice day! 

Much Love!

My addictions: My cute yet ferocious dog named John

Shocking isn't it? haha!  Let me introduce to you my dog named John. Believe it or not he had a brother named Lloyd... get it John and Lloyd. Blame my mom for their names LOL But besides from that he is one peculiar kind of dog. He has a mannerism to act adorable one minute but turn annoying after another.  He has been with us for like 5 years or longer. He is a mix of Labrador and Pitbull.  I took that photo a couple of days ago when I was in a trigger happy mode. I took pictures of my niece and my nephew, our newly renovated house and of course my pets. I was actually asking him to look at me and when he did he suddenly yawn. And that is how I had that shot.  He is actually a really nice dog, he is a bit territorial but most dogs are like that. He actually likes my Labrador Retriever named Georgia. I'll let you meet Georgia next time. ^_^ Much Love!  Alice

Product Review: iColor Hair Dye Shampoo

Hello lovelies!  Since the start of the year I told myself I will change my looks more and test things since I am not getting any younger so experimenting would definitely be on top of my list.  With that I've actually started with my hair. I have already gone blonde although that was a little hard to maintain since I remember being told to go back after a number of weeks to have my roots done but never seem to do it because  1. The salon I got it done was quite far from my place.  2. Its still expensive 3. It would damage my hair tremendously I still have qualms about getting my hair colored again professionally so I asked my mom if its much better if I color it myself - she said yes but gave me the low down on the things I have to do...remembering all those information was a toughie but I was able to get a simpler solution with it - this hair dye shampoo~  My mom discovered this actually and asked me to try it on my hair since she knows I need to cove
