    Everything in moderation...even the *bad* stuff.

    If you're an ultra-athlete I can see the danger of incorporating fast foods (or comfort food of some type) into your diet

    Michael Phelps: Breakfast: Three fried-egg sandwiches loaded with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, fried onions and mayonnaise. Two cups of coffee. One five-egg omelet. One bowl of grits. Three slices of French toast topped with powdered sugar. Three chocolate-chip pancakes. Lunch: One pound of enriched pasta. Two large ham and cheese sandwiches with mayo on white bread. Energy drinks packing 1,000 calories. Dinner: One pound of pasta. An entire pizza. More energy drinks.

    So, nah, even ultra-athletes just make sure it fits their macros :-D

    Or look at what some of the ultramarathon runners are eating in the middle of 100 mile races. Pizzas, tacos, Mountain Dew, hamburgers, etc. But they aren't fit or anything.

    Yah, refined, enriched carbs sure because they digest faster than whole grains.

    WTF does that have to do with your "if you eat fast food you're fat and unhealthy" argument?

    Obviously if you're exercising while eating junk food it doesn't count. It's when you eat the junk food AFTER the gym that it makes you fat.

    because you guys are saying. oh look at michael phelps he eats pizza and he has results bla bla bla
  • This is the same as grabbing a pizza/takeout on weigh day! A very popular past time with slimming groups - usually the people who bounce around from one plan to another because it's not working for them! Makes you wonder why they bother - none of the consultants i met/lost weight with were particular fans of this!

    I'm here because i have been eating too much and exercising too little letting life get in the way (accountancy exams, fighting to keep my job in a reorg, changing careers and family stuff - i know a whole list of excuses or is it just too much at once, all this has been topped off by giving up smoking (last june) and gaining a cracking appetite! Time to take back control)

    DIDNT REALIZE HOW SENSITIVE PEOPLE ON THESE KINDS OF SITES WERE.

    I know!

    it's like you lecture people who weren't asking for it and have been doing a fine job losing weight without your input and they get all steamed! GAWD!

    Will Bodybuilding.com take you back? Or did they already make a pretty lady out of you?

    take it easy old man. goodness :)

    My money is on the 'old man' vs. you in a fight. Btw - his abs are much better than yours too.....

    LOL who said anything about fighting? wow. And no they're not lol

    Fixed it for ya. You're welcome.

    Yinz are nice, but I'm man enough to admit the guy is in much better shape than me. Without question. Even if I weren't bulking I would never get down to 6%, wouldn't want to.

    I'm just not a **** is all.

    I don't see a problem with it assuming it fits their macros and calories and does not mean that the rest of their diet it nutrient deficient as a result. I see people on my FL eating that all the time - they still get results.

    I worked with a guy who moonlighted as a trainer. He was actually the office physical therapist for repetitive injuries, and he helped me a lot with that and with getting in shape. Wish I would have stuck with it. Anyway, he was in incredible shape but he told me that if he couldn't occasionally have a hamburger or pizza or beer ... or whatever it was he wanted, he would lose his mind. He would say to me, "what's the point of working out for an hour and a half to two hours a day and then eating fish or chicken every night?"

    I think that's the right attitude to have, actually ... why NOT enjoy whatever you want every once in a while? It's when you make it a habit that it backfires on you.

    If you can fit it into your calorie/macronutrient goals there is no reason not to have Wendy's or McDonald's. I would think after a hard workout would be the optimal time to grab a McRib.

    Mmmmmm ...... McRib...... mmmmmmm

    I disagree with this.

    ITT, OP washes his food.

    What makes no sense to me are the people that circle the parking lot at the gym for five minutes on a beautiful day looking to park as close as they can... Why not burn an extra five? Never going to understand that one...

    This was my "post workout recovery drink" after my first half marathon. I also had a couple slices of pizza, a bunch of cheese and crackers and a whole lot more beer. I got up at 7:00 the next morning and ran a couple miles. Maybe because this worked for me I should proselytize on the benefits of high ABV beer and pizza and cheese after a workout.

    I will vouch for the the benefits of high ABV beer and pizza and cheese after a work out. At least that's what my now-husband and I went straight for after a week long backpacking trip (which is where he proposed). I don't think I would have been properly refueled after that trip if we'd stoped at a whole pizza and a few pints of stout a piece, though. I at least had to follow it up with a basket of fried smelt.

    BOOM! Peer reviewed again!

    Never got into drinking alcohol. I just figured if i were to consume 10 beers = over 1,000 EMPTY calories. Id rather have something nutritional.

    Wrong beers. The one in that picture is about 500 calories for the one 12 ouncer. And it's delicious.

    thats a *kitten* load of calories for 12 oz.

    Did you not read the part where I said it was delicious?

    no i did. so is a t-bone steak
    I thought you preferred turkey?

    Remember, beef has the same ingredients as an engine block.

    to hamburger

    I agree completely. Moderation is key. Working your @ss off should allow you to maintain your lifestyle in a way it is sustainable in the long run. Every day? No. But living the rest of your life without fast food or chocolate isn't realistic for most people. Definitely not for me.

    I don't like the taste of soap residue. Thai food taste like soap to me , it must be clean.
