Starling Fitness has a follow up to their post about eating anything you want where they point out a Tom Hanks quote about being able to overeat to gain 60 pounds for Castaway. He says:

“Eating everything you want is not that much fun. When you live a life with no boundaries, there’s less joy. If you can eat anything you want to, what’s the fun in eating anything you want to?�

One of the coolest things I implement in the summers and when I am working out hard is a ‘free day.’ All the other days involved healthy eating, careful watching. On this day I get to eat anything I want. It’s always an explosion (sugar, grease, salt!) and by the end of the day I’m somewhat relieved to get back to a cleaner tasting/feeling diet.
