So I've been cheating a lot more this past month because of work and social occasions. My weight has inched up 3 lbs but I'm holding steady under 200, which I'm perfectly fine with. (I do worry that I might be messing up my insides with all the good fats that don't get burned from my occasional carb intake.)
For my next experiment, which I've been trying for the past week, is intermittent fasting immediately after a cheat day. Surprisingly, the extra carbs allows my body to run perfectly fine for 24 hours without food.
