I have a cheat day once a week too. The health people at my gym gave me 800 extra calories to play with on my cheat day. I stick to eating healthy the entire week and then on cheat days I get to have 800 extra calories if I want and I won't gain anything.

I have found that it helps me a lot. I find that I look forward to my cheat day and I can actually enjoy the food. Before when I ate it all the time, I thought nothing of it..now I can savour the flavours. I also have found I don't crave fast food or junk that much anymore either. I use it as a treat, but not a daily necessity.
