Oh the irony. Good reposte...well presented!
Also what in the name of....are you talking about...if you have to label it then its' not good...now, that's a new one.
Nobody likes labels, that's why all this happens. I had enough, you don't believe me then fine, I wish you all the best, but from relevant past to the present those foods are doing more bad than good. All over media, news, gyms, surprised why gyms never sell Pepsi and snickers? Atleast the ones I've been to never did.
Clearly you've never been to Planet Fitness.
I've heard about them, but never stepped inside one.
90% of the BS said here about Planet Fitness is not true. I don't know where people come up with it.
No, there's not a soda machine or a candy machine at PF. No, they don't have pizza night (not at any of the one's I've been to at least.. I'm sure demographics plays a big part in this). Lastly, yes, you can squat.

One guy is all natural, 210 pounds but he eats very well, mostly fruits veggies and lean meats, he tries his best to stay away from sugars, sodium and gluten, ( hence where i started getting this thought process) he won first place in all natural but he placed 20 th in the open circuit.
You realize that there are many successful bodybuilders and athletes out there that utilize flexible dieting methods too right?0 -

They do, in fact, have pizza night every 1st Monday of the month. They also give out tootsie rolls. I've heard there's bagels some days, but I never personally witnessed that.

Curious about planetfitness, so I googled it and found lots of credible info that they have pizza night ... Even touted as a good business idea to increase business ...

Also, I've seen and eaten the pizza, although I did not eat the Tootsie rolls, as I think they're gross.0 -
Ok I finally got caught up in this thread. Now I'm going to go get caught up in my inbox if you know what I'm saying.0

Did you ever try almond milk? It's alittle thicker, but packs almost all the calcium you need in 12oz?0 -

You stated that these foods I speak of aren't toxic, fear mongering to call them bad for your health, presented you with articles which I'm sure aren't just pulled out of the air, stating the health risks involved with consuming those foods, call me names, and yet you can't provide one shred of evidence to defend your claim that nothing is wrong with consuming these foods. That even makes me wonder if that is actually you in that photo or someone from another website based on peer evaluation?
See my profile pic. That's me eating about 5000 cals of junk (in 6m30s) at 8% bf. If this was toxic, I'd be dead. As I'm typing this, I'm clearly not.
Hope that helps

As well as seeing support for the statement "Soda is linked to prostate, processed meats to heart disease, diet soda to obesity and a whole slew of problems"
And that bb'ers all eat clean
And that "fast food' is going to leave you riddled with cancer and disease
And that broccoli is more beneficial than a "damn brownie" in every situation
And what is toxic 'food' - and how is it toxic
Also would love to know why its better to consume pesticides than eat junk all the time.
As well as the repeated question as who is suggesting to eat 'junk food' all the time.
Still waiting for answers to these, but I am expected to support an assertion I did not even make...
Wow....
Really? How is a brownie more beneficial than broccoli? Explain that to me?
omg.
Are we really back to a brownie being better than a broccoli.
is this dejavu???
I can't. Even.
Okay- let me see if I can third grade this for you:
Because- sometimes - you need fast energy release- you need quick carbs.
if I'm running a long distance- brownie beats broccoli.
If I'm going for a lift snickers bar beats broccoli.
it has more carbs- more fats- more proteins.
its' a more well rounded food to get me through a lift than a whole bucket of broccoli is.0 -

So you accept those links as credible?

It's such a shame that you've found a group of people that are REALLY GOOD at the thing you want to do and you are disrespecting and burning bridges! These people have helped turn body, health and fitness into something I couldn't dream of. There are no personal trainers that could touch them that wouldn't cost an absolute fortune.
I implore you to stop posting, start reading and researching, actually complete a couple of bulk cut phases and STOP posting advice. Then maybe you can be a useful member of MFP in a year or two.

Yes, and they supported the Nazis in WW2. Someone I knew went for an interview there and the lifestyle editor actually said that the main goal of the articles was to a) instill fear into women about their body image b) to provide advice and products to 'solve' it.

I can believe it. Hope your friend didn't get the post (not in a bad way), I'd imagine all their journalist must die inside, a little more every day - no dreams of a Pulitzer there!

Well since I'm in the U.S., I think I have an excuse for not knowing a whole lot about the DailyMail. But like I said, in high school it would have been fairly credible.

In addition to some of the things that have already been stated, I would suggest that she add in dried fruit if she is not already doing so. Dried fruit can be higher in calories than fresh fruit, so that would work.ForecasterJason wrote: »
