A young woman, reportedly on a “fitness buzz” after a heavy summer of toxifying her liver in fields and on beaches, is having her seventh cheat day of the week.
The cheat day is the one day of the week where chronic exercisers are allowed to abandon whatever stringent paleo-bullshit diet they’re on that week and eat “whatever they want” or “normal food”.
Amanda Prender told Wunderground that she “needs to get the body sorted out – no excuses or messing now that the summer’s finished” before doing four and a half push ups on her knees then collapsing into the foetal position and spooning Ben & Jerry’s into her mouth.
“I was really good last week, I only had pizza on maybe four nights,” claimed Amanda who qualified this admission by insisting that she ate salad on the side which she even almost finished. “I deserve a cheat day, it’s actually beneficial for getting in shape to have a few cheat days here and there.”
“Just because I’m having mine in a week long block won’t affect my overall plan, I don’t think,” she added.
It has also been claimed by Amanda’s friends that she has only gone to the gym twice this week and both times she “sat in her shorts for an hour” before taking a sauna and going to the pub where she drank six to eight “nice pints”.
“Sure what’s the problem with that?” queried Amanda. “It’s not like something you drink can make you gain weight, you piss it back out an hour or two later.”
Amanda denied that she had lost her dietary discipline and insisted that she was actually pioneering a new concept called “block cheating” that she read in Women’s Health but “don’t bother looking up the issue cause it was a while ago and the article is a bit obscure even though it totally exists”.
