That pretty much describes the way I eat. I try to eat a ton of veggies and a good amount of healthy fats and fruit. How would you describe the way you eat?

    Nutrition-conscious, as seasonally/local as is reasonable (according to me), mostly whole foods based (I like to cook, after all, and I love vegetables and summer fruits), but flexible. I make sure my food is delicious too (based on my taste)!

    But if someone off-line asked me I probably wouldn't go through all that, and what I'd say would depend on what they were really asking.

    Out of curiosity, what are you trying to find out?

    I set my macros and then if it fits my macros I eat it. I eat everything really, but keep my fat intake decently low.

    I used to call it: I eat anything I like, but not everyhing at once, and not all the time.
    Right now I call it: I eat what I want, when I need it.

    IIFYM.

    I eat what I like, in moderation, I try to hit protein and fat minimums, and I even eat my vegetables.

    It has been working for me.

    I'm gluten free due to Celiac, (since 2005) but otherwise I eat a varied diet of foods I enjoy within my calorie "budget". I did low carb a few years ago and did ok, but in the long run it wasn't sustainable for *me*.

    Whatever sounds good. If what sounds good is chicken breast I eats my fill. If what sounds good is icecream or pizza, i eat with some moderation and then fill up on some leafy greens or added protein or fat in the form of nuts or a protein bar. Eat anything really, just track calories and stay in my limits.

    I tend to skew towards high protein to help with satiation.

    Generally whole unprocessed foods- meat, chicken, fish, nuts, seeds, vegetables, fruit, cheese, yogurt, & eggs. I don't log food I don't care what my macros are. No pop or sugary beverages, very very rare fast food or junk. If I'm going to have dessert, it better be good & rich. In summary, mostly "clean" with the occasional guilt free indulgence.

    Generally low carb-ish. Been buying way more organic stuff lately.

    However, on my birthday the answer flips to anything with flour in it, particularly if there's icing on top. I'm usually stuffed by 9:30 AM, yet I persevere.

    And on Thanksgiving the answer is stuffing and absurd amounts of pecan pie (with whipped cream) and a tiny taste of turkey for appearances sake...

    Truth.

    If the food fits within my calorie limit and I like it ... I eat it.

    It's just chaos honestly. I eat whatever I want, in small amounts.
