    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.

    ^This. Low-fat, high-carb is not good.

    I love your attitude. Defiantly not low fat :laugh: All jokes aside, fat is an important and necessary nutrient.

    Low fat? Not me. Not ever again. Been there & done that. Kind of like a real slow & painful death.

    Our bodies need healthy fats to function so why anyone would want to eat low fat is a puzzle...

    i eat clean but not low fat, fat is good for a lot of things if your getting in the right kind, it helps you stay fuller longer and trust me that helps!

    30/40/30 and I eat 80/20 style. I only eat "clean" if I prep for a contest..............and that's been a long time ago.

    Thanks for taking the time to reply - those with open diaries, you're really very helpful!! Like I said previously, I've enough fats in my diet so don't need help there :laugh:

    ... and as for those who aren't reading through the thread yet continue to harp on about the 'low fat' in the title - it's time's like this I miss the sites where we can curse freely :grumble:

    I'm joking of course.. but I get it - I know - chill.

    My diary is UK based and open. It's vegetarian though.
    High protein, good fats. Whatever I hit on carbs is what it is...

    You're welcome to look at mine, I'm pretty sure it's open. I didn't log at the beginning of this past week because I was trying something new a dietician recommended to me, but I couldn't keep up with it, so back to MFP it is. I generally aim for 1500 calories a day, give or take, and between 110 and 120 in protein. The rest I don't pay that much attention to. It's pretty clean (I aim for a 90/10 split), even the things I have like tomato soup are homemade 100% from scratch with whole wheat flour and homegrown tomatoes so while it may sound processed it isn't.

    Hi!
    I don't know what you consider to be low fat but according to myfitnesspal I eat 54% carbs 27% protein and around 19% fat so you are more than welcome to look at my diary if you wish :)

    I've only been logging for two days on here, but today is mostly typical for me though yesterday was bad so please don't judge too harshly. I do eat grains and dairy (mostly go for whole wheat), and I love eating fish so a lot of my protein comes from fish like salmon, tuna, and tilapia. My macros are set at 40/30/30, and I usually hit my protein goal.

    I have a ton of really good clean recipes if you'd like to try them. If so, PM me and let me know what you like, and I'll send you a few. I love to cook.

    If the answer is yes... could I be really really nosy and have a gander at your food diary please?? I need some inspiration / ideas / a rough starting point / a good owl fashion nose through your life.. :flowerforyou:

    If the answer is no, come sit beside me, tis well comfy.

    Typical high protein, low fat diet is during work out days when i eat 40/40/20 split...i eat the following:

    Post workout:
    2 servings oats
    1 cup whole milk
    2 scoops whey
    1 serving natty peanut butter
    100g rasins or some kind of fruit
    1 protein bar (usually quest)

    Dinner:
    10 oz 99% lean turkey
    300 g sweet potato
    10 oz broccoli
