    I eat real food - so add me - like some of the other posters. I do try to stay away from fast food - I did have wendys chicken and it knocked me on my *kitten*...made me feel gross...i try my best to eat whole/clean food - i am proud to say that my fridge has never been so colorful in the past, i have a pretty rainbow up in there!! good luck!

    I try....
  • I eat what I want as long as I stay within my limits (sodium, calories and fat) Yesterday I had a double filet of fish, small fries and a small coke from McDonalds..and I ate smaller healthier options throughout the day. I weighed in today and still lost weight. Granted, this is the first time I ate McDonalds since December of last year, but my normal choice would have been a Double Quarter Pounder value meal.

    Moderation is the key, my friend.

    Add me- I am obssessed with cooking from scratch and have just started on here but I am trying to add fresh food and recipes to my diary too.

    Feel free to add me. I don't eat any nurtition shakes, protein shakes, etc. Not using Body by Vi, Herbalife, etc.

    I like REAL food. I am trying to eat healthy but am not perfect at it. Yesterday I ate a hearty bowl of chili for lunch (yum!) and had a Reeses peanut butter cup which was my cheat for the day. I still stayed under my calorie goal though by eating fruits for breakfast and by eating grilled Talapia for dinner.

    I refuse to diet. All I'm doing is limiting the extra eating I do out of habit, and amping up my exercise. Friend request: sent!

    I don't purport to be the healthiest eater around, but I eat real food. I don't do protein powders or shakes. I'm a working mom of 3, so my diet is easy & kid friendly.
    Add me, if you like.

    That's me, too, except I'm at home (and homeschooling) four kids. Lots of homemade real food meals here.

    i eat real food. it's the best kind.. not that plastic shet my 1 year old niece tries to feed me from her play kitchen..


    Real food is how I got to 227 lbs... and how I lost 15 of it in the past 2 months... you just got to eat the right " real food" .. whatever that may be in your mindset.

    my diary is open.

    I eat real food. I eat 1700-1800 calories every day. This morning I ate french toast, the other day I had meatloaf. Last week I had Joe's Crab Shack Crab Daddy Feast...and no I did not skip the butter because crab+dipping butter is better than sex (yes I love it that much lol). Add me, my diary is open to my friends and more than willing to give recipes out if you see something you want to try.

    I eat mostly real foods. nothing fancy, but good basic stuff. My stuff is public.
  • I want some real food eaters that fill out and allow viewing of their diary to add me. I want to get more meal and food combination ideas with out protein powders, protein bars, and most other processed food. I want healthy whole food eaters.

    My diary is open and I will add you now. Please take a look and see if anything works for you. I do drink 1 liquid protein a day but you can skip that and just add more protein to your meal.

    I focus a lot on the percentages of where my calories come from so some days may look like I"m all over the board, but there is a method. Just ask if you have any questions.

    My diary is open to the public. I've lost about 110 pounds, am 16% body fat (good for a 56 YO male), and maintain my weight to within 1% +/-.

    I eat whole foods, no processed , packaged premade crap, you an add me to see my diary
  • Depends on what your description of "real food" is. My husband is a meat and potatoes kind of guy but I prefer raw or plant based food and he former is what I cater to. I also substitute 3 healthy smoothies for 2 of my meals a day (no artificial protein powder) although I do need to incorporate more protein into my daily diet....any suggestions ? I'm not against meat but prefer to do plant based.:glasses:

    When you say real food, what do you mean?

    Oh I eat all the food, clean... but I mostly like it dirty.
