What is your favorite food

tedrickp

alcohol is my favorite nonhealthy food that I had to cut way back on

I like you.

What is your favorite healthy food that you eat all the time?: Probably eggs...or taco salad recently.

What is your favorite food that you reserve only as a special treat? Buffalo Chicken Wings (not breaded - never got-damn breaded. A breaded chicken wing is a sin against nature. WTF the delicious skin gets crispy on it's own it does not need a crisping agent...yes I am passionate about this) . Hotter the better.

What food did you have to completely give up? Nothing really - Cheddar Jalapeno Cheetos & Sour Cream And Onion Chips got cut out a significant amount though.

oh you mean before :noway:

No, after dieting. My diet includes chocolate every day. Chocolate is healthy. It’s got antioxidants, iron and fiber.
Where is chocolate derived from? Cocoa beans – did you hear that – beans. Beans the magical fruit. Beans are a healthy source of protein. Beans burn belly fat.

I love chocolate, too!

But, I'm pretty sure beans don't burn belly fat. :indifferent:

WINGS! They call to me.

Fun fact, my first job was touring the Frank's RedHot Battle to the Bone Wing Eating Competition around the country. Wings are like, part of my soul.

Sushi, Ice Cream, Avocado, and PEANUT BUTTER.

Does Salt count? I feel like I can't live without salt.

Hahaha. Oh my early days in public relations. It was fun until I had to clean up the mess. And they made me wear a shirt that said Red Hot on the front and Lover on the back. Awesome at the college bar scene :laugh:

Favourite food that I eat regularly: I'd go with prawns/shrimp (or really any crustacean) or tomato
Favourite 'treat' food: Chinese takeout or cinema nachos (I eat these very infrequently now, on special occasions I can still make space for them)
Food I've had to completely give up: I don't believe any food needs to be completely given up to lose weight, but I simply adore pickled jalapeno peppers and I can no longer eat them for health reasons.

Fav not-as-healthy food: Pizza (I could eat pizza every single day and never tire of it. For real.)
Fav sweet: gummy bears or frozen yogurt

I Googled beans burn belly fat - whoops. I hope I didn't get this from Dr. Oz. But as I looked further down the page there seemed to be more reliable sources agreeing. Unfortunately I have not searched for scientific studies on "burning belly fat". I just know the nutritional content of beans are high.

Nutritional content is a good thing, but that's not fat burning.

The only thing that burns fat is eating at a deficit, through diet and exercise.

Also, you can't spot reduce.

Favorite healthy food would be grilled mahi mahi over wilted greens. So yummy! Cheese too! Iove cheese!

Treat is usually Beer. I cut back on it. I like Stella!!

Um I don't have breads or pasta ever. They make me feel terrible. The trusty ole Dr. claims I have issues with blood sugar so I've cut those and some other starchy things out of my diet.

Is bacon healthy? If so, bacon. If not, turkey "bacon"
Cheesecake
Bananas. One day, I had one and my lips started to swell. After a brief period of enjoying my bigger lips (without a plastic surgeon!), I decided it was time to give them up.

Favourite healthy food: Omlettes - I only learnt to cook them when losing weight and now I eat them all the time!
Treats: Beer, beer and more beer
Cut-out: I had to quit eating pasta as I just couldn't get my head round the fact that a sensible portion is so, so tiny it just wasn't worth teasing myself with it.

Tell me more. Where are you from? Does shark meat taste like chicken?

Healthy Favorite: Sushi/Sashimi any kind of fresh fish!


Special Treat: If I feel like being "bad" bacon cheeseburger with grilled onions and guacamole!


Had to Give up: Ranch Dressing, I like it on everything, I gave up traditional ranch but found a substitute that is SUPER low calorie. I just use powder hidden valley ranch mix and put in into Fage greek yogurt. It makes a slightly tangier delicious ranch!

I love potatoes. I mean, I REALLY REALLY love potatoes. Someone once told me they didn't like potatoes because when they were a kid they had them on the side with everything they ate. I suddenly remembered I did too, and that I was hungry at that moment and needed potatoes.

I think my naughty list would be fried foods, vegan nuggets, and tortillas. I could eat a whole 50 pack of tortillas. Sensibly, I would fry them first.

I am on a "raw untill 4" diet, but somehow I don't feel like I'm restricting myself. I have been lacto/ovo for 9 years or so and it doesn't seem like much of a change. (Except no fry-bread for breakfast)...
