French Toast - No way

Whole Milk - No Way

Of course, I am on the far side of extreme and look at that as an entire cheat day so far. Then you will get the ppl coming in with, "as long as u didnt go over ur calories..u are ok" when I believe eating ****ty food wil produce ****ty results for the most part, even if calories are under/over BMR - to a point

I second this.

Replace the french toast with some oatmeal with a scoop of whey protein.
Replace the BLT with a turkey lettuce tomato sandwich, whole grain bread of course.
Replace the danish with a medium whole wheat bagel and some fat free cream cheese.
Replace the whole milk with either skim milk or a whey protein shake.

Doing this will increase: fibre, micronutrients (B vitamins substantially) and protein content. It will also decrease the sugar and fat content substantially.

From your stats I'd consider you to be about 35-40 pounds underweight right now.

So healthy?...not so much. But at this stage of the game, anything that will start putting some meat on your bones is a good thing. Once you start gaining some weight you should start to tweak your diet as you progress to bring in into a more healthy range for you.

Alright I will not bash on you as bad as the other users.., but drop the pastry. I have made french toast before.., but I made it only with whole wheat bread and egg whites. No syrup. So you can make a healthy french toast. I would not recommend whole milk unless you are a real skinny guy who needs extra calories to put on some muscle... Otherwise get skim of 1% milk. The B.L.T. is not too bad, but make sure it is not loaded with tons of mayonnaise and mustard. Try making your own B.L.T. with lean turkey bacon.

You guys are so F*CKING ignorant.

Please elaborate.

OP asked if his choices were healthy. They are not, so I suggested alternatives. If you disagree, please tell me why.

[Ruz4life]

He is 18, 5' 11" and is substantially underweight at 130 pounds. He needs all the full fat high calorie foods he can get. The other poster also even claimed that he is on the extreme side of "clean stupidness". You were like no way, no way, no way, to things like bacon, lettuce and tomatoe.. Now tell me what is wrong with that?

It's ignorant because you are programmed into a one track mind and don't even read surrounding context or circumstances and only say NO NO NO unless it's a plate with plain chicken breast and sweet potato or bowl of oatmeal.

Whole Milk isn't healthy?

I do not retract my statement of his food being unhealthy, but, admittedly, did not notice his being underweight. I agree, his fat content should be increased, however, why not do it cleanly? The whole milk can certainly stay, throw in a bit of natty PB and some flax seed. Hell, now that I see the underweight situation, keep the BLT and add some turkey to it!

When I see "is this healthy" I tend to consider micronutrients a lot more than most people due to a good friend of mine being a LD.

So yeah Ruz, good looking out.

[Ruz4life]

I may have gone over with the ignorant comment and if so I apologize, but I get tired of seeing people put down any other food that isn't the standard list of 5- 10 "clean" foods. Also imtKain please elaborate on why those foods he listed are not healthy for a person who is in good health and does not have a vitamin or mineral deficiency as you were claiming you can get so much more b - vitamins etc. Also why in moderation is sugar going to harm the body unless you are diabetic?

More like throw in an oz of a nut (preferably almond or macadamia), 2 tbsp olive oil and 3 grams of omega 3 from fish/cod liver oil and get the rest of his fat from animal fats (dairy, beef, etc).
