    I eat 40/30/30. You are welcome to take a look. It's not "clean" but I have consistently met my weekly goals and I look forward to eating. (Yesterday was off a bit but the rest is pretty typical for me)

    No idea why anyone would eat a low fat diet. Fat is delicious, healthy, and filling. Helps keep you regular, helps maintain hormone levels, etc.

    Pulling up a chair....

    Lol seriously though mine isn't a good one to gander at. I'm breastfeeding and eat pretty much anything in sight. Although I do try to make healthy choices when possible.

    Saturated fats aren't unhealthy either! Look at the benefits of things like coconut oil, which is almost pure saturated fat.

    Trans fats are definitely bad though.

    Yeah... I know :tongue: I can't say "I just lost 30lb in two months since birth by stuffing my face and breastfeeding" since it wouldn't help you much. But I can say I am doing the C25K too? Hehe

    Yup yup.. I drink coconut water, I cook with coconut oil, I rub coconut oil all over myself daily. Either show me your Godforsaken healthy diet diary and leave the thread title alone or go away pedant before I bite you!

    My diary is open. I consider it healthy, but it is certainly not low fat. It is high in protein, and very high in deliciousness.

    just be careful you don't go too low-fat, as that can really hinder your progress.

    the body needs fat.

    i don't eat low fat by any stretch, but it's clean if you wanna peruse for ideas.

    Thanks very much lads, loads of reading to do later, have had a quick look but nothing serious :happy:

    Although had a quick browse through your recent diary Johnny.. Taco Bell, McDonalds, Dunkin' Doughnuts.... I can't afford to eat as healthy as you!! :tongue:

    Kidding, will have a proper look after although I find a lot of the diaries difficult to decipher really, it's just that we don't have a quarter of the brands here that you do in the US so it's hard to know what's plain and what has additives / extras or what is pre-cooked etc. anyway, I'll get there!

    Thanks again, much appreciated!

    My first two I lost mada myself. Zip. Zilch. Like 10lb after birth and that was it!! I was angry at the "breastfeeding causes you to lose so much weight!" because it didn't work for me. Then this time I just ate meals and snacks like I had in the hospital after baby was born. It was nuts the weight just fell off! Then I realized my mistake. I wasn't eating enough before. So this time I eat 2000+ calories as often as I can. At 2mth pp I'm 30lb down from birth! Crazy. Now I know the secret. Lol
    Feel free to follow what I eat. I'm constantly cooking. If you see a meal or item that looks good ask. I'll share my recipes too :)
