Lots of people who eat food in moderation, don't ONLY eat processed or junk food, candy and ice cream as all their meals. Many of us actually eat lots of whole foods in high amounts too.

Carry on.

    Unfortunately, the ones who need to hear this the most will not hear it. It's all they have. They'll never give up their last ditch argument in favor of common sense.

    Lies. I eat 3 cups of white sugar a day and nothing else.

    ETA: Except of Sundays. On Sundays I eat 58.9 yellow marshmallow peeps.

    I'll add one-- People who choose to cut down their alcohol, sugar, gluten, lactose, whatever are not necessarily 'demonizing' anything or suggesting you do the same. :)

    Protein, fat, and carbs.

    Check, check, and check.

    Thank you! This drives me crazy. I don't understand why some people hear "moderation" and think "pizza, cake, cookies, chocolate all day, everyday".

    Sorry dude, but every time I make a smoothie I stand there with my raspberries in one hand, and a clump of sugar in the other... debating. That's how it's done, right?

    If I don't have a side of broccoli, I might as well eat the whole box of pasta, right?

    It's maddening. This is why I leave my diary public. Anyone is free to look at how I, someone who argues in favor of moderation, eat on a daily basis.

    Mmm. Bacon.

    Obviously, you really mean the bacon candy bar, right?

    First sentence appears poorly constructed, I don't know what it means.

    Bacon candy bar?! Where have you been all my life... Also, bacon should only come from organic, gluten-free, clean pigs...who shower daily. ... Eh, it didn't work, but you can't fault me for trying. :confused:
