Can people please stop being so rude on here. I'm not trying to get you all to fight or say how what the other person is saying is stupid. Thats not the point and most of you are not taking this seriously. If you can't take this seriously then get out and leave my post alone. I actually want to lose the weight and have help but some of you guys are just making fun of each other or giving dumb responses that is not helping me so please go away and take your "trying to help" somewhere else. Sorry if this makes anyone upset I just want true help and answers. Thank you and have a wonderful day ^.^

You don't want help, you want confirmation of what you wanted to hear, right or wrong.

I am not trying to be mean here, nor was I trying to be mean in my post, but you are doing yourself a disservice by trying to categorize food into good and bad.

I used to do the same thing and I lost weight, gained, lost, etc., until I learned how to simply eat the foods I like in moderation. In fact, May 2013 marks when I learned how to eat all the foods I love in moderation. I lost 44 pounds this way and have been maintaining for some months now. This morning I had 52 grams of bacon, 150 grams of egg, 35 grams homemade bread (half a slice), 2 grams of butter, 8 grams of almond butter, and 1.5 cups of steamed milk in coffee. My morning snack was a Greek yogurt with 8 grams of sunflower seeds.

Good foods: Foods that allow you to achieve your required daily nutritional goals.

Bad Foods: Foods that you consume that cause you to exceed your daily nutritional goals over a period of time.


In essence, there are no bad foods.

Demonizing certain foods, or categories of food or specific macronutrients (like carbs or fat) goes against sensible, rational weightloss. Potato chips and orange sherbet have a place in sensible, permanent weightloss, as does broccoli, as does grass-fed angus beef.

You say you want to lose weight. If that is your goal, then there IS no "good" or "bad" food. For your goal of "lose the weight" almonds aren't "better" for you than peanuts (unless you have an allergy to peanuts).

So if you describe your goals better, you'll probably get more targeted advice.

Perhaps you meant healthy vs unhealthy foods...even then the lines are blurred. Everything in moderation....

Two words. Public. Forum.

If you want to control the responses, then join or create a group here on MFP.

but to address your OP - there is no "bad" food (unless rotten or molded).

could someone give me an idea of what exsactly are bad foods and good foods?

It depends almost entirely on what it is you are trying to accomplish. Chips and candy can be just as "good" as any other food.

So...

...what specifically are you trying to accomplish?

Good foods: Carrots, luttuce,spinach, etc all vegatebales, all fruits, just beware of the starchy ones are okay just don't make that as your main source, whole grain (if you buy a bread find one without preservatives or high fructose corn syrup) or even sprouted grain bread and pasta, and real grains like brown rice, oatmeal, millet,quinoa,armanarth, etc. Sweet potatoes, pure cut un processed meats such as chicken beef pork,lamb etc, some dairy is okay if you feel okay after eating. It's best to get low fat. If you get no fat than you don't have any fat to dijust it well, or absorb the nutrients. If you have full fat than you have Aton calories. So just get low fat. And get Orgainic or grass fed as often as you can afford. And nuts and seed and beans. They are full of fiber and nuts and seeds have healthy fats.m
Bad Foods White Bread and pasta and rice. Pre made frozen and boxed food. Most cereals. No seriously there are very few cereals that are healthy in my grocery stir. Processed meats. Like hot dogs and bolenge and Salome. The snack foods (like the ones in the gas station). candy, soda, ice cream,. Fried foods. Fried foods (especially the deep fried ones) like chips, french fries. Fast food. Foods with additives, chemicals, lots of sugar, high fructose corn syrup and other sugar like substances. Look online to see list of all ingredients the equal sugar. That's about it. And if weight loss is what you after. Make sure your in a deficit. Remember that both matters with weight loss.

Wall of LOL.

And the sad thing is that the OP will probably listen to that load of LOL inducing B.S.

OP just asked what where healthy and unhealthy foods and that what I gave her, however that just for health and to make weight loss easier. In order to lose weight you have to meet your carbs and fats and proteins without going over and being in a energetic deficit over I period time. :P

The foods you listed as bad aren't bad though. Feel free to back up your claim with scientific evidence as to why those foods are bad.

What's unhealthy about ice cream?
