Do you guys ever eat junk food like cakes, cookies, ice cream, candy, fatty foods, chips, and stuff like that? Or do you eat clean to stay fit?

I dont cheat (not in 8-9 years)
Couldnt tell you the last time I ate a cookie, potato chip, french fry, etc.
I enjoy the food I eat
You can make anything healthy
I made these brownies this week (whole grain flour, organic cocoa powder, egg whites, chocolate whey, PB)

Ugh, where's that "things that people say about nutrition that annoy you" thread. I should quote that right there :P
For me, eating poorly is not "living it up". Not even close in my books. Having bad health and lying on a bed in a hospital one day is not my idea of "living it up", however quite the contrary, it's a ticket to an early grave.
My idea of living it up, and your idea of living it up, are two completely different things i can safely assume.
Food is not something i get excited about. It's just a source of fuel and recovery for my active body, and that's it. I don't crave Pizza Hut, i don't crave KFC, i don't crave Maccas etc. so therefore why would i go out of my way and eat it?!
I'm a role model to my clients and my community anyway, so it's not fitting for me to live an unhealthy lifestyle or lead by a bad example regardless. It's just so happens to be that i would eat healthily for the rest of my life no matter what my job or position is.
Keep eating those twinkies dough boy.
It's just a change of mindset that's all. Keep a positive outlook on things and you could do it if you wanted to.
It's like a young kid looking at a bicycle for the first time. It may seem daunting at first. You may fall off at first. But after time and with practice, it becomes rather easy.
Once you get into a routine, it becomes second nature and you don't even think about it.
Anyway, determined4000 there sounds like he's been junk-free for longer than i have, so go ask him all these questions lol :PLast edited by Simmo0508; 03-01-2010 at 09:21 PM.

That's great..
I look at things from a different perspective however... "is this going to HELP me?".
I'm not a negative person nor do i want things that do me no good, sorry.
(by the way, i don't even like chocolate, and chocolate wasn't even mentioned in this thread... so yeah i dunno what you were getting at with that one :P)advertising/self-promotion not permitted

Do I cheat, almost never. Even when I "cheat" its a couple of fries, or a bite of someones pizza.
Its not worth it to me. Once you make it your lifestyle to eat clean, it doesn't bug you as much that you can't eat what everyone else is eating.
Plus having a 6 pack feels better than anything in the world tastes...NASM-CPT

haha thats a first... I can somewhat understand your obsession because overall I do eat extremely healthy and I guess its your job from what you said. I just think it is so funny when people who are not bodybuilders or personal trainers think that one cookie or even a few beers would be catastrophic to their "gains"

Another one for the "things that people say about nutrition that annoys you" thread.
:P
It's dedication my friend, dedication to a goal. Not obsession. Obsession = the lazy negative admiring man's word for dedication.
Are you obsessed with brushing your teeth every day, are you obsessed with taking a shower every day? Eating well is no different. Just what a person does...advertising/self-promotion not permitted
