This is a fitness app, sorry folks but if I don't want people who eat cake and cry about not loosing weight or gaining muscle. Cool! I'm making my own little Internet world. Peace out angry Internet trolls!

    I agree people get soo upset when you mention clean eating!! don't know why they get soo judgy when that is some ones goal!!

    What is clean eating?

    That's one of the problems.

    So far as I can tell, clean eating means "how I, a self-proclaimed clean eater, eats" and not a clean eater means "in a way that I, a self proclaimed, clean eater disapproves of."

    IMO, discussing eating healthfully would make more sense than "eating clean" (which is really just a trendy term for who knows what--like I said, people can quite reasonably CHOOSE to include processed food items like yogurt BECAUSE they think they contribute to the healthfulness of their diets). However, even if we discuss eating healthfully, you have to accept that people are going to have different ideas about what that means. My red meat and potatoes and wheat examples upthread, for instance. Like I choose not to eat meat substitutes but think red meat is fine. Someone else might make the opposite choice. Seems dumb for us to judge each other about that or decide that because we disagree on that we can't encourage each other or have ways of eating from which the other might get some ideas.

    Who are you to say we aren't clean eaters? Under the definition and examples given in this thread, it seems like everyone here is.

    See I like finding friends that can eat cake and lose weight all at the same time.

    Motivation to eat clean?
    How about googling to learn the effects of food poisoning, or bacterial contamination?
    Pretty nasty stuff. Highly motivating.

    Her judging was much cleaner than our judging. You really should just embrace the clean judging way of life.

    You must have reading comprehension issues, OP's tittle and her first post are 2 different things. I suggest reading her first post. ;)

    I literally copied the name of the message thread and pasted it in my post above. Does that sound like a reading comprehension issue? ;)

    Be fair- you can copy and paste anything without reading it.

    But it also doesn't answer the question that you read her actual POST.

    Yes - but that isn't my point.

    It would be like me reading a "I need vegetarian eating motivation and friends!" message header, and even though I'm not a vegetarian, I click it anyways, and then I read the initial post and it is degrading to meat-eaters, and then I get offended, and have to post a bunch of negative comments about the OP. Huh?? Uhhh, if I wasn't a vegetarian in the first place, why do I choose to click on a vegetarian friends MB, and furthermore, how can you reasonably get offended by it? People are just looking for any excuse to 1) get offended and 2) argue.
    The voice of reason...how refreshing! You rock!

    I clicked on it because I eat in a way that many who are "clean" eaters would consider "clean" (although I dislike the term, which is silly). Therefore, I thought I might have something to say. I like sharing ideas about vegetables and cooking whole foods and such. I find it bizarre that many self-labeled clean eaters seem to think that only those who self-label as "clean" would have something of interest to contribute on these topics--as I noted upthread, only someone who really isn't experienced with cooking would think you need special "clean eating" recipes to get ideas about how to cook with whole foods. That's what essentially all normal recipes are.

    (I think this comes through pretty clearly on my first post here, although I also commented on the discussion of someone else's diary and why people were reacting negatively to that.)

    I am a clean eater. I shower everyday and wash my hands before every meal. To the cookie dough and pizza bingers who justify their behaviour by "keeping within their calorie goal" I ask a simple question: How long do you think that I would live if all I ate was 1.5 cups of white sugar everyday? It is exactly my calorie requirement so I have to assume from some of the posts here that it would be perfectly acceptable.

    Jeni's!!!! Oh I love you something fierce. I used to live in Columbus and I'm pretty sure I kept them in business during my stay there.

    There's one on my street, but it's always too crowded to go to, so I haven't yet. (I imagine it's been not so crowded during the recent sub zero temps, but sadly that killed my desire to go also.) Luckily my WF sells some of the flavors, but I want more.

    It's not all or nothing, no one is advocating eating nothing but cookie dough or sugar. People are wondering why it's so bad to enjoy cookie dough every now and then if macros are otherwise met. Even if it is for lunch, which is apparently the be all end all meal of the day?

    What's wrong with this is simply that it comes out as you picked how you want to get in shape and you are asking for other people who have already gone your path to guide you. Because we are all human and we all make mistakes. Some binge - it is a real problem; but you don't want to encourage them and help them get better. You only want people to help you. And if the path you chose fails for you? You have already eliminated others who have found a different path that works and maybe it was something you could apply to your own.
