    In b4 90% of IIFYM dieters suffer dietary related illnesses from not paying attention to actual macros, micros, and cholesterol. LOL

    I do the IIFYM...however I can't indulge on yummy delicious food all the time. I stick with my healthy foods..only because I used to have an eating disorder and I can't have "trigger foods"

    Just a lil FYI about me.

    How did you people who eat so perfectly all the time end up here in the first place? Just wondering.

    Through eating the way OP promotes. Do you realize that 100 calories extra (not even a half-cup of ice cream) over what your body requires (and my body happens to use calories very efficiently apparently) over the course of 10 years is a 100-pound gain. And dieting only exacerbates the problem. So we cleaned up our act and got serious about making healthy changes. And here we are---loving our healthy new way of achieving our goals. :smile:

    You forgot to add: "loving our healthy new way of achieving our goals... while trying to prove to others that I am better than them by nagging in a thread specifically titled Eating pizza, pop tarts, and ice cream while losing weight...SMILEY FACE."

    Not at all, dear. I do NOT consider myself superior in any way. If you got that out of my posts, it was likely your inference. It is not nagging to suggest that what the OP advocates will not necessarily work for everyone. Sorry that my posts seem to have made you angry, but there was really nothing in them that should have done so. When you are around here a bit longer, perhaps you will see that this is an old ongoing discussion that apparently has no end in sight. If they are happy with what they are doing---more power to them. I am merely pointing out that it simply will not work for some people and that those who are watching and not participating would be wise to tread cautiously on their advice as they should tread cautiously on all advice from every source.

    Sweetie, darling, I have just bolded one of your statements. :flowerforyou:

    The reason being, dearie, that this clearly shows you feel superior to others who lose weight whilst incorporating treats. :heart:

    If we turn this statment around, lovie, what you're saying is you believe we are not serious about weight loss and improving our health because we eat foods you disapprove of. :flowerforyou:

    I find it strange dear, that you are able to contradict yourself so regularly, but with the amount of posts you have clogged up this thread with it must be difficult to keep up with what you have previously said. :heart:

    Live and let live, sweetie. :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    Ah--thanks for all the :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: I have not contradicted anything I have said. I really don't care whether anyone here eats junk food or not, but I do feel an obligation to warn that what may work for someone who maintains on 3,200 calories a day might not work for someone with a much smaller allowance. Perhaps you should go for some ice cream and Pop-Tarts? :wink:

    If you care so little what other people do dear, I wonder why you have made more than 28 posts in this thread (that's more than one page or about 7% of the total contribution so far)? :heart:

    Oh, and I had icecream yesterday. It was delicious, thanks, sweetie. 1 scoop of stracciatella, 1 scoop peach and ameretto and 1 scoop pistachio. 100% natural ingredients. :flowerforyou:

    Weight loss is to become healthy. So why eat like a slob?

    How am I eating like a slob?

    Diary from yesterday:

    Kirkland Signature (Costco) - Premium Performance Multi 31 Vitamins & Minerals, 1 tablet
    Nature's Bounty - Fish Oil 1400 Mg/980 Mg Omega-3, 1 Softgel
    Body Fortress - Super Advanced Whey Isolate - Vanilla Creme, 2 scoop (35g)


    Lunch
    Kirkland Signature - Almonds, Dry Roasted and Salted, 28 g (1/4 cup)
    Barilla Plus Multigrain Pasta - Farfalle (Bowtie) Noodles, 1 oz
    Generic - Broccoli, 3 oz.
    Cauliflower - Raw Floweret, 3 ounce
    Coca-Cola - Cherry Coke Zero 12oz Can, 12 oz
    Bybee Organic Mixed Vegetables With Shelled Edemame (Costco) - Organic, Frozen Corn, Carrots, Green Beans, & Edamame, 2 cup (100g)
    Lawry's Marinade - Lemon Pepper, 1 tbs
    Kirkland Chicken Breast - Boneless skinless chicken breast, 8 oz
    Knudsen - Cottage Cheese - Lowfat Small Curd, 1/2 cup

    Dinner
    Coca-Cola - Cherry Coke Zero 12oz Can, 12 oz
    Red Brick Pizza - Pizza Bufalo, 1 small pizza
    Gold Coast - Salad Spinach (Premium Select), 200 g
    Kirkland Chicken Breast - Boneless skinless chicken breast, 7 oz

    Upper Crust Bakery - Mini Cinnamon Rolls, 2 rolls (37 g)
    Kellogg's - Pop-Tart - Frosted Red Velvet, 2 pastry
    General Mills Cheerios Plain - Plain Cherrios, 56 g
    Milk Walmart Great Value - 1% Milk, 0.75 cup (240ML)
    General Mills Cereal - Fiber One 80 Calories Honey Squares, 2 1/4 cup (30g)
    Edys - Slow Churned Mint Cookie, 2 cup 63g

    It's not McDonald's, but there is still a lot of bad stuff on your diet. Lots of high fructose corn syrup, artificial sweeteners and GMO-food. Also soy is estrogenic (edamame). Once in a while, it might be ok to indulge (yes, I do it), but don't kid yourself! Every day like this isn't healthy.
    Soy is now bad for you really? the billion of Asians that eat it daily are all dieing of cancer. What makes burns my backside is not poptarts but people that don't know squat about real food science and believe garbage junk studies. I work in the cancer field cancer and disease do not know the difference of a healthy eater and an unhealthy eater. The people that are the most upset when they get sick are the health nuts that thought they can prevent cancer with their diet. Eat and be happy life is too short!

    Mmmm---China has some cities that are so polluted, the people call them "cancer cities". If you work in the field of cancer research then you should know of the many studies which point to specific phyto-nutrients that likely prevent cancer. As just one example, the rate of colon cancer is very low in India. The people there eat a lot of curries and scientists wondered if that had something to do with it. Turns out that the spice, turmeric (a constituent of all curries) has a profoundly anti-inflammatory influence on the cells lining the gut and seems to prevent and even cure polyps in the gut (polyps are what generally become cancerous--but then you would know that as a cancer researcher). I do eat and I am very happy, thank you. Long life to you. :flowerforyou:

    She's insecure in her irrational food beliefs so she feels the need to proselytize to convince herself.

    How exactly would it not work for someone with a much lower calorie allowance? I can't afford to have one of those delicious looking pop tart and ice cream sandwiches seen on some of these threads unless its my long run day,but that doesn't mean I can't have a portion of ice cream or a pop tart or two or a chocolate bar, whatever. The whole point is to eat what you like and fitting it into YOUR macros not eat what everyone else is eating.

    I have to admit that I have never been a big fan of pop tarts.

    That being said, all my MFP friends who read my diary know that I lost a lot of weight last fall and achieved my ideal weight while consuming tons of pizza and ice cream.

    My cholesterol, blood sugar, and blood pressure numbers are all perfect.

    I am getting stronger and faster every month.
