Food is joy. I can't see it as straight sustenance, I like it too much. Particularly fatty salty food (hey there cheese).
I'm eating healthy to lose weight for my health.
But try to take this pizza away from. Just try. I dare you.
And I recently discovered ranch (not a huge thing where I live) and I may be ruined for life.
Life is about balance. All things in moderation.

I have nothing against this except that kraft is not vegetarian.1 -
I started with 227 pounds im Dec. Everyday since I've eaten burgers, pizzas and burritos for lunch and now Im at 212. I eat lots of junk food, but I' always under my calorie intake goal, and dinnee and breakfast are protein shakes:P7

It boggles the mind.
I noticed her magazine on the rack at the supermarket checkout today - the headline was something like "I've finally made my peace with food". I couldn't help thinking, "Oh really? We'll see..."
I wonder if she keeps all her fat clothes for when she puts the weight back on? Although I doubt it - she could afford a brand new wardrobe every season if she wanted it!4 -
I wouldn't say I don't eat healthy, but I eat a balanced diet, which also includes some unhealthy things, so decide what category you want to put me in.
Come to the dark side. We have cookies, literally.And I recently discovered ranch (not a huge thing where I live) and I may be ruined for life.
Put it on everything. Everything.7 -
I live for the local family owned restaurant's fried pork tenderloin sandwich. SO good... Probably like 9000 calories (seriously, the thing is the size of a plate), but worth it on occasion. It's a midwest thing.
I also eat fruits and veggies and yogurt and cheese and fast food and hot dogs. :Psmotheredincheese wrote: »I'm really disappointed by this thread.
I settled down with a plate of cheesecake to read some comments about how you're all going to die from sugar cancer unless you eat 100% clean and haven't seen a single one. Not even a mention of kale. Where's the broscience?
Hmphhh.
Ugh i love cheese cake! Strawberry cheesecake blizzards are amazeballs!
I also currently have 4 leftover slices of a strawberry cheesecake blizzard cake in my freezer from a family thing I had at the house.3 -
Including rice. My hubby often loves to mix it into his rice, no matter what else we're having with the rice! I did try it myself and it was pretty good, but that was before I started counting my calories - I'd want too much of the stuff on the rice...

The other evening, after work, I met with a friend at her house to discuss some plans. I ended up having a glass of wine and some cheese and crackers (I was surprisingly VERY good with the cheese). I had planned, since I would be close to my favorite grocery store, to get the shopping done while in the neighborhood. But what I thought would be a quick in and out with my friend ended up taking two hours, and I was STARVING by the time I was done. Bad to go to the store so hungry, especially a Wegmans. So, I went to the Mexican joint around the corner, and had a margarita and something smothered in cheese. I then thought, since I'd already blown the calorie goal for the day, to go big or go home. I got an eclair at Wegmans. The next night, I ate more cookies then I meant to.
I'm still losing, though! Because 90% of the time, I'm good and eat lots of "healthy" things.5 -
Yea I pretty much do a lil of both.. I do drink protein shakes because I have to get alot of protein ( i started IIFYM) but so happy I can throw in some Oreos!! Oh an I ate greek yogurt/with a scoop of protein powder toped with a Reeses pb heart4

I eat clean in that I follow the five second rule
I've lost about 135 lb through just eating what I liked, but in predetermined amounts.12 -
I eat a lot of healthy foods since it logically keeps the calorie count down and is good for the body. But I also don't cut anything out. If I have a craving, I go for it. I just try not to go crazy with it. Usually on the weekend, I overdo it with the wine, but I mostly fit it into my calorie count! I have chocolate almost every day! A few days ago, I had a bag of chips with lunch (small bag), but still stayed within my calorie goals. I enjoy food, and if I restrict myself too much, I know I'll binge. We've gotta enjoy life, right!

I totally don't. I stay under my calorie goal for the day. Today I had popcorn and wine after dinner. I make cookies and am learning how to limit my eating to one or two a day. Saturday I had lots of pizza and beer after a 2 hour workout.2

Traitor!
No, poutine isn't for everyone, or for all the time.
But when you're craving it (usually wee morning hours after a bit of drinking) and you get good poutine it's the best. Salty fatty crunchy saucy squeaky melty goodness.0 -
(I tried to like kale chips. I really did. Figured they might be a good low-cal snack, but no. Those things are disgusting!)
Those pea chip things are pretty good though.
But the worst is seaweed. It's like fishy cellophane. I could barely get it to my mouth the smell was so strong.
Also, can we talk about movie theatre popcorn for a second? With butter.

What is deemed healthy today is tomorrows evil. I just eat to live and don't worry about what other people say.3

Likewise, I eat whatever fits my macronutrient requirements for the day. The bulk of my diet is lean meats, vegetables. egg whites and rice but I don't restrict myself to these things.2 -

Well I don't really drink much alcohol but I totally agree with this sentiment. If it fits within calorie goal it's good with me. I eat chips, soda, pasta, sti-fry, takeout, healthy and unhealthy.4 -
It took me a while but I've read every single comment on this post and nothing has changed my mind - you are all still my people.
I love the common sense approach that all of you are taking. Thank you for the entertaining reads10
