Cheat days on the Atkins diet?

[crimson coal]

What is the frequency for your cheat days on an atkins diet? I have heard from some once a week and others once every four days. I plan on being strict on the weekdays and maybe going off one meal a day on the weekends. Would this work? I also plan on taking in less than 40 Grams a day of carbs during the week.

Well, with Atkins you cannot have a cheat day really. I was on it though and I incorporated one and it was great. Although, 1-2 meals a week does not give you the benefits of having a cheat/refeed day.

Also, the frequency would depend on your BF% and how you are feeling. Do a search and you will find all of the info you need.

Switch to a CKD then you get two days off diet/week.
