What's the definition of healthy vs unhealthy?

Low fat? What about low salt? Not just lacking fats and sugars, but actually enriched with vitamins, minerals, etc?

in this case, I think the bar is pretty low...

let's just go for ...better than "fast food"

 

 

are you posting from the future?

what happens tomorrow?

I will say it's cheaper to eat healthy food home cooked then going out to a restaurant and eating healthy food prepared.

I will also say it's cheaper to eat shitty food at home than it is to go out and eat fast food.

Where the two merge?  That's the debate I leave to you guys. 😎

For me, I try and have 1 large meal in the evening and several "snacks" throughout the day.  My large meal when I am trying to eat "healthy" consists of a low fat protein, a starch preferably a whole grain or brown rice, and a serving of vegetables.  In the morning I usually eat fruit, sometimes with bacon as the fat gives me some energy and helps absorb my morning mens multi.  Through the day I try and snack on nuts, berries and yogurt. I might have a small portion of left overs in the middle of the day.

Total calories about 1700.

Sounds perfect. With everything in life, it's all about BALANCE. I have a similar diet. My snack of choice these days is seeds and nuts. Have one large meal to splurge on: a hearty meat meal. While balancing with smaller, more vegetable, non-meat proteins meals like chick peas or beans. 

However, I don't know what side of "healthy" I am. I have a soft spot for salty food. And I will snack on chips and popcorn all day, but shy away from chocolate and sweet desserts.

In NZ it feels like its easier to be healthy because there are less options for "unhealthy" food.  I've lost 10lbs here while eating the same amount I thought I always have.  Maybe the food is just that much healthier out here or maybe I got a worm or something lol.

Question, I have always heard it is ok to increase your salt uptake if you start to become more active and sweat more?  Is that just wishful thinking?  I fucking love salt too lol

Heh, that's out of my scope. I do work closely with a nice dietician though. I have the same question, I could run it past her 🙂.

I do think salt with iodine has real benefits.  It's about the only way you can easily get iodine in your diet.  

It's my biggest dietary weakness.  I put salt on cantaloupe lmao

Completely agree. Normal salted food gives you plenty of Iodine, it's the added salt I'm worried about...

My dad's side of the family has all died from MI and/or CVA. No cancer. Makes me worried about my salt intake.

Errrrr.....wut?  That's straight up serial killer stuff lmao.

I cut the cantaloupe in half, scoop out the guts and fill it with a big scoop of chocolate ice cream.  Best thing you'll ever taste.

Oh and I forgot @Posturedoc

I am sorry for making fun of your profession. I have never used a chiropractor before, and I don't quite get the whole thing, but your profession is important to people, and you help people. I will try to be better. 

Anybody else

@stanfordchef. I respect you. You are an amazing attorney, and @halfmanhalfbronco says you are a great artist. I would like to see that sometime. 

Fuck off

My wife salts grapefruit and limes, but then complains that I over salt sometimes when I cook. All ‘y’all who salt weird shit need to stay out of my kitchen.

This reminds me of a dinner me and the wife went to one day with some friends. My wife's friend complained that all her food was fried. I had to remind her that she ordered the fried fish platter.

Game ? A game presumes the competition is equal

For me, this is shooting fish in a barrel and you are far from being considered competition.

Debating with you is a gimme.

I offered a truce and you stupidly refused.

You are relentless when it comes to being an asshole and an idiot.

There is no game.

There's just you posting  your idiocy with every single time.

I won't respond or react to any of your posts from here forward.

I doubt you have the self control to do the same. You're worse than a kid with ADHD.
