While I know this site has pretty much become a blend of hotornot.com and pumping the latest crypto meme, there are still quite a few in here who workout consistently. But I feel like very few pay attention to what they are eating outside of calories and macros.

Who else pays attention to ingredients? I will rarely eat something if the ingredients can't be found in a typical household pantry. Grass fed, antibiotic free, organic whenever possible within reason.

I'm triggered because some girl I know recently got into fitness and while she lost a ton of weight and looks good, all she posts everyday are these chit protein bars that are full of sugar and chemicals and she claims she is "healthy".

lol damn. get that bish some real food.

I don't have the cleanest diet but i try my best. during the week i'm pretty strict (Greek yogurt and fruit and granola for breakfast, turkey sando for lunch, and grilled chick/rice/veggies for dinner) but during the week i have a couple cheat meals. trainer says its ok because i'm trying to put on some mass.

Not really, I frequently eat kodiak pancakes, anabolic french toast, protein pasta, protein powder, Quest protein bars and chips... and I look fuking hot broski.

I don't care about the "healthy" grass fed, free reange, blah blah... nope.

Chicken, broccoli, and rice not even once.

I am starting to be out of necessity. My BP reached 170/100 the other day ded fkin Srs. And I felt like chit. Realized what I'm putting in my body is garbage and I'm now making changes. Currently eating a bowl of fruit and some sushi (no soy saucE)

Seems like you've been saying "2 or 3 lbs" for a few weeks now....

No ace K, no HFCS, I avoid lots of other artificial sweeteners, and try to get organic produce depending on the food item.

no wonder you're fat

Yeah, I always say I'm going to lose weight, then I do well for a month and lose 5 lbs, then I plateau for a 6 months (or a year). Hate losing weight. An older fellow I knew growing up used to say "I can resist anything but temptation". I feel that way sometimes.

Anyway, to get back on track. I like to think I eat fairly healthy, and I think I do 80% of the time. Mostly home cooked from basic ingredients with a good mix of veggies, protein, and whole grains. But I tend to eat a little too much in general. Then on the weekends I always make sourdough pancakes and bread (it's tradition, kids expect it now) and live it up. So, the end product is I'm in my low 40's, exercise quite a bit, and maintain 210-215 at probably high teens bodyfat eating mostly what I want. I like to play basketball, and I'm better at around 200 lb. But I look decent where I am because I lift, too.

groce

This is pretty much where I am right now. It's gotten so bad that I question if I have an eating disorder or just extremely picky. I feel great though

Use to be die hard about it

Gave my self one day a week to eat whatever I wanted. The other 6 was all about business

Pretty muched forced to as I got older. Its mostly about avoiding the bads. Anything that gives me gas or constipation is automatically out. I cant be dealing with that ****.
