    For me it was accepting that walking can be just as good or better than running everyday. I was always an exercise type and in the past tried to rely too heavily on long intense cardio. I still enjoy and value that for over all fitness but for weightloss I've learned that walking and more moderate activity like that can be better for me. It burns calories without causing the intense hunger that long runs can. Even when adding back those calories, I've found it's often harder to stay within my limit when I've gone running,

    There is such thing as bad calories. Eating one cup of fresh vegetables is not the same as eating one cup of fried foods. Eating as many fruits and vegetables as you can and not eating processed or deep-fried foods is the best. Calorie restricting is the best way to lose weight.

    Yep.

    There are lots of mystery ingredients and salt in 500 calories of mystery meat sausage. You won't get that in 500 calories of a natural food like chicken and veggies.

    Absolutely agree. I draw that line when considering the minimum acceptable calorie quality I'm willing to eat.

    For some that does not matter at all. I don't quite understand why it does not but I also don't get the Clean Eating extreme group.

    At the end of the day I find what works for me. Calorie count and limiting ground up floor sweepings added to mystery meat works for me.

    You know there is some weird stuff in there when you bite the hunk of gristle and makes a strange crunching sound....

    Pass...

    yea, sorry but 500 calories of mystery meat = 500 calories of chicken and vegetables from an energy standpoint; however, they are not nutritionally the same.

    I dont understand why that is such a hard concept to grasp.

    gristle is typically just fat….
