Cheat meals after a cut is complete.

Once you guys wrap up a cutting phase and return to maintenance calories do you still incorporate a cheat meal once per week?

The idea of 1 cheatmeal a week when cutting on keto is to shock the body so that you can keep losing weight, but if you want to maintain just count the cheatmeal to your calories

Normally people have a cheat meal to keep himself/herself sane. Others use it to replenish glycogen stores and reset hormones like ghrelin and leptin

Unfortunately there's no cheat meals when maintaining.

It's fine to have a piece of pie or a few beers when maintaining, just have to offset it with cardio or dropping a regular meal.

Thanks guys.
