Are we talking about donuts again? Can I just say I don't even get the appeal? They all squishy and doughy and blah.0

Hey now, don't be mean! Is that how your mom raised you? Where's the support? Aren't we all here for the same reasons?

I thought maybe I was the only person in the world that didn't care for donuts.0 -
While I also tire of the IIFYM crowd posting as if they live off junk food and posting pics of ridiculously high calorie foods, I do not for one second believe that all I need to do is eat 5 meals a day that are low fat, moderate carbs and high protein and my abs will magically look like the OP's.
Well, I didn't read through the whole thread (all the gifs hurt my eyes), but...
Obviously the OP has a dedicated weight regimen. It's not hard for me to believe he eschews Pop-Tarts, ice cream, and the like (since I've done it myself in the past, and many don't worship those types of foods to the extent that some seem to do here), since the extra carbs, sugar, etc. don't really help you look any better (even if they don't hinder you).
I see many posting cute pics and memes, but can we see an example of someone with a fit body that eats thousands of calories a week of this "bad" (to some) food? I'm not talking just about being "not overweight." Maybe some of us want a little more than that. Why can't some of these Pop-Tart eaters show pics of their abs?
If we can get ripped eating "empty" calories, please educate us.
Actually, a lot of the self-proclaimed pop-tart (or other junk food) eaters are quite ripped. The peeve I have is that they routinely posts as if they eat junk as the mainstay of their diet, when in fact, it is a very tiny part of their diet. It's the "Look at me, I'm fit and eat a lot of junk" misrepresentation that I don't understand.
Define "very tiny part". Is ice cream daily very tiny? Fast food a few times a week? Very tiny seems like a real undefined kind of arbitrary statement. Can we get a percentage so that the ripped IIFYM people can decide who fits and who doesn't?
"very tiny part" = very small percentage of their calories. Some have their diaries open, and when you take a look, it does not correlate with what they imply in their posts at all.
So if Sara eats 1/2 cup to 1 cup of ice cream daily is that a 'very small' part? I'm looking for an actual amount here. 10% 15% 20%? If someone uses 300 of their 1900 daily calories is that tiny?
Also what you think is implied isn't an actual metric to measure what they eat against, is it? IIFYM is about moderation, so to expect anything but moderation seems...odd.
Who is Sara and what are her goals? How many calories is in the ice cream? Moderation has nothing to do with what I'm saying. I'm talking about purposely. Just as you can complain about my use of the word "tiny" I can complain about their use of language to make it sound like they eat more junk than they do.0 -

Does it matter who she is and what her goals are? I thought '300 of 1900 calories' was a perfectly good clarification of how much and in the proper context. If someone eats 300 calories of poptarts or ice cream or whatever is that a 'tiny amount'? Or is that an amount in line with the claims people make when it comes to IIFYM?0 -

My favorite donut place in LA county has a ****in Banana Nutella Cronut (crossaint/donut) covered in cinnamon and sugar...

I mean, I ate 80% of my calories in pizza on Sunday, and then the rest in tuna and a cinnapie from papa Johns. But I'm not ripped so I don't count/am not fit enough for this discussion.0 -

I think you are probably my favorite person online and offline today. Lol.0 -
I missed the moving target minimum level of fitness/rippedness requirement, so I'm probably not qualified for this discussion either. 6', 175 pounds, but a 33" waist, which probably exceeds some kind of arbitrary threshold. I'll just go back to eating my doughnuts (or ice cream) in solitude.0

It is not in line and yes, I'd say that's tiny.0 -

Nonsense. I'd hate to cloud things by adding data that doesn't fit your standards. I mean, adding in irrelevant thoughts/ideas isn't really productive, right?0 -

Same for me, even though yesterday I had coffee with full fat creamer, real sugar, and cereal. For lunch I had a lunchable (oh noes, processed foods!), and dinner was popeye's fried chicken, dessert was a brownie chocolate sundae (again, full fat and real sugar). :happy:0 -

I don't know that there is a hard line to draw, but the implication in the type of posts I'm talking about is more than 15%.0 -

Maybe half the calories? The actual sketchy eaters do tend to be on weight loss plans. Eating a half cup of ice cream after chicken breast and broccoli is not worth talking about.
What? Anything less than half their diet is "tiny"?
If you want to argue about the definition of "tiny", go for it.
The point is that a lot of people are eating mostly food they don't talk about, and talking about food they don't eat particularly much of. Food bragging is pretty common, and pretty silly in most cases.
Then you look at, say, magerum's diary and he's actually eating what he's talking about.
I'm barely keeping up with this conversation, but I eat what I'm talking about...or what I say I eat, I actually eat. (The almost four cups of ice cream on the 20th, for example.) But honestly, I've lost track of what the argument even is at this point.
This conversation has changed topics so many times, its making me dizzier than the crazy gif0 -

I'm just now in my life feeling adult enough to mix sweet and savory/salty foods... My first stop will be the Monte Cristo. ... Next stop... this magnificent creation.0 -
LOL. Since we can set the goal posts anywhere we want, whether anyone can see my abs is hardly as interesting or valuable as what I can do with my abs.I missed the moving target minimum level of fitness/rippedness requirement, so I'm probably not qualified for this discussion either. 6', 175 pounds, but a 33" waist, which probably exceeds some kind of arbitrary threshold. I'll just go back to eating my doughnuts (or ice cream) in solitude.
I think that at 43 years old being able to do all this shiz and much more is "fit enough" and is likely more than any of the people complaining can do. My diary is open for anyone who wants to see all the pizza and ice cream I eat. (And by pizza I don't mean a bunch of carrots and celery piled on a cauliflower 'crust' and by ice cream I do not mean a frozen mashed banana.)0 -
