i missed part 1. but i'm in for the afterparty.
let me guess... OP states that he;s doing great eating pop tarts and ice cream daily. then 20 pages ensue where people demand that "no it's bad for you, because it's bad for you" followed by "what does bad for you mean? i'm thriving like this!" followed by "but sugar! and toxins! they're bad bad bad"... etc, back and forth for 20 pages.
something like that?

I saw this locked and was like, "you're kidding me, right?"
Taso- No, pretty much, 3 people said you will die. The rest said "yeah, i like some bad stuff, too."0 -

I maintain my original stance that Toaster Strudel is superior, if only for the icing drawings.0

YES with it's "REAL" fruity goodness!0 -
I purposely avoided pt1 because I like being fashionably late.
I'm so down for some ice cream and pop tarts, though.0 -

Moderation is not eating something every day.
There is no way i could eat pop tarts daily. For me it's not just about calories, my approach to weight loss is holistic and I am interest in ALL my Macros, not just calories.
If you are happy and it works for you , that's great. Personally I prefer to use good quality fuel in my engine.
I ALWAYS hit my macros too.
what about your micros?
I was addressing the comment that the poster hits ALL her macros - how about you ask her the same thing, hey poppet?
I am interested in my macros, I don't always hit them perfect.
I am not getting on my high horse as per the original thread :frown: I am just saying that I prefer to eat minimally processed foods. I can't eat pop tarts anyway as they are not gluten free.
Like I said, if it works for the OP and they are happy that's cool, I was just giving my opinion. :flowerforyou:0 -

I know. When that one chick was like "I use ice cream in my coffee as creamer everyday" all I could think was:

I did not say you were getting on your high horse. I just made the point that I also hit my macros.0 -

Why would they limit the edition of something that is certain to be chock full of deliciousness?0 -
I would like to second the motion that toaster strudel is tastier than pop tarts.
Thank you for your consideration0 -
I don't get what's so hard to fathom that you can still hit your macros (and micros for that matter) but still have some calories left over for a little bit of what you fancy.
Let's take an average 30 something man of average height who needs 2,200 calories per day to lose weight at a reasonable place. Let's say he weighs 200 lbs and has a BF% of 20. He is involved in moderate levels of training.
He therefore has 160 lbs of LBM and 40lbs of fat. Let's say for the sake of argument he needs about 160 g of protein per day (1g per 1lb of lean mass) 65g or so of fat (roughly 1/3 of body weight) and 150g of carbs.
160g of protein x 4 cals per lb = 640 calories
65g of fat x 9 cals per lb = 585 calories
150g of carbs x 4 cals = 600 calories
Total = 1,825 calories
This leaves 375 calories left over from the 2,200 calories as a discretionary allowance (10-20%) to use on whatever he may like after hitting some very decent macros and calorie intake.
Is anyone seriously suggesting that he will be unhealthy if he uses that amount per day on "junk" - which in itself has macro and micro nutrients. I mean, seriously?0 -
I wish Ben and Jerry would make PopTart ice cream. I mean, Kellogg's makes ice cream flavored PopTarts, so why not the other way around?
That would be so awesome.0 -

Personally, I think those leftover calories should be used for cookies. But that's just me.0 -
