For the most part, I eat whatever fits my calorie budget. I do lean toward getting more protein whenever I can (though I don't always hit my protein goals), but I'm not strict. I had an eating disorder in my teens and so I know going to extremes is very dangerous for me mentally - I let myself eat what I want within reason.

This past weekend I had lots of sour gummy worms...they made up for the disappointing quarterfinal matches.

I'm paleo because I can't eat dairy and legumes make me hurt. Although i have never had a problem with it, I've also cut out grains (because paleo) and because those are the things I eat when I want to snack on something. It sounds restrictive, but the best thing the other day was when I wanted to have a "cheat" meal, and it was super good, within the restrictions, and only slightly over my calorie limit.

I try to have a plate that's more vegetables than meat. If I snack, I snack on berries and carrots. I'm only super restrictive in what I buy for groceries because it makes it easier to follow the plan. If we go out to eat, I'll be much less restrictive. My boyfriend is trying to cut right now, and he's on whatever diet I'm on since I do the shopping and cooking, so we're trying to stay in super clean eating mode

We don't follow any strict plan or rules, just a few basic guidelines such as not too many grains or carbs, try not to eat too late at night, and eat as much local organic foods as we can. Everything in moderation. We eat a lot of vegetables, and most of our snack foods I make myself so we can have guilt-free treats. We're pretty much 80/20, 80 being healthy and homemade and the 20 being the occasional pizza or Steak & Shake splurge.

The only strict rule is the "fridge door rule" - I cut up veggies whenever we get home from the market, and we always have 2 or 3 different veggies cut up & ready to go in the door of the fridge. If either of us opens the door for any reason, we both eat a piece or two or whatever happens to be there. Really works for snack attacks, and works even better for those times when you're wandering around and think you're hungry when really you're just bored…by the time you finish your carrot stick and radish slice, you don't generally go back to find more food…and if you do, guess what? You just opened the fridge door again!
