Do you give yourself one day a week to have "free?" I've decided to let myself, either Saturday or Sunday. Not a day where I go pig out, but a day that I don't feel bad for eating a little more than I usually would.

Yep, I do free days, but I don't do it every week. I do it just whenever I feel like I need one. I think it's fine to do it every week. I just save it if I don't feel the need to that week.

i normally do it when i feel like i need one. But i also try to limit my choices. I have learned that having 2 slices of pizza (at least in my eyes) is a waste of a free meal, but boy do i love pizza lol

The WW walking program gives you Wed and Sun off, but I usually use those days to get in my Wii Fit. I need to try to do something daily, or I get really off track.

Every day is pretty much a free day for me when it comes to diet! However, if I don't get some sort of exercise every day I feel 'off' the next day. Yesterday was a 'rest' day for me so instead of running or biking I went to the zoo and walked all over.
