As with any diet, you’ll only stick to it as long as you understand that you can’t be perfect every single day. I’m on 1700 kcals a day but my trick is that I only follow it 6 days a week which give me 1 day out of the week to include “cheat day”.
On my once a week cheat day, I’m allowed to splurge on my favorite foods and eat or drink whatever I want. The cheat day is important and a necessary pressure release, as long as your behave yourself the other 6 days.
Typically, my cheat day is Friday or Saturday, because that is when my wife and I want to go out to eat or indulge in some wine. I still try and pick healthy choices but I don’t restrict any food that I might want.
