Be honest, how bad is your diet?

My diet is bad. I eat out probably five to six times a week. I don't consistently eat breakfast, lunch and dinner. Some days I only eat one meal. Other days I snack all day long. I guess I'm pretty lucky that I'm not overweight because I eat terribly.

I eat meat two times a week and other then that it's all fruit and veg with some carbs.

Even I think my diet is boring as s***e

Boringggggggg Zzzzzz

Well actually I really like it. We all have different tastes. Like I said, if I feel like I want pizza and chips I will have it. It's just my body craves that sort of food more often.

My diet is unreal. Plenty of bread, meats, vegetables and gluten free desserts (rewards for good eating). I was inspired by the federally approved food pyramid to bring my weight down from a hefty 25 stone to a slender 24.

Just wondering why gluten free?

Seeing eat bread then you are not coeliac so there is no need to eat gluten free foods as it's no healthier than foods with gluten.

Seems to be a bit of a perception out there know with the increase of availability of gluten free foods that they're a healthier option but it is not the case.

I'm the worlds laziest vegetarian(pescetarian). I can't really be bothered to eat loads of vegetables so I pretty much eat Quorn products with each meal intead of meat or chicken. I am very fussy about reading labels, animal byproducts are in all sorts of weird places. Sweets with added pork/beef gelatine, yum:rolleyes:

Re you a pescetarian or a vegetarian? 'm not trying to pry just curious since you mention both

Pescetarian, but it's easier to say vegetarian since most people don't know what it is and pescetarian sounds a bit pretentious.

Ah cool

Jaysus!!! some people's diets are absolutely horrendous!!! I thought mine was relatively poor until I've read this thread lol

I never ever get takeaways...I don't drink or smoke either...but my diet needs improving!

Breakfast is nearly always a big bowl of porridge..with some chopped walnuts and raisins ... I love my breakfast and I look forward to it every morning lol..

Lunch....is a weak point....just a banana and apple.

Dinner...is generally chicken breast with cous cous...lots and lots of fresh veg...mushrooms, peppers, broccoli, red onions primarily...also I could have an omelette or frittata, egg/ham salad with chick peas....if I'm feeling really hungry and have the time then...I would make Sheppards pie. I might eat fish once a week....salmon baked in oven with some chunky chips.

Snack....tea with 3/4...maybe 5 biscuits! always a bar of chocolate...before bed...terrible habit! sometimes I bake cakes...so I'd always have a slice of that too lol.


I'm very fit...and go to the gym regularly...but at the same time I'm trying to build muscle and I'd like to eat cleaner! In the new year....I think it's time to keep the chocolate as a weekend treat only! I want to reduce my sugar intake...it's a highly addictive substance and it's about time I tackle it! :-)

My current diet is something like this! I'm a recovered anorexic and I maintain my weight by eating this (18 y/o girl, lacto-ovo vegetarian)

Breakfast- porridge/Weetabix with agave, nut butter (cashew/peanut), a banana and almond milk plus black coffee

Snack- dried fruit (dates) and popcorn

Lunch- wholemeal wrap with houmous, raw vegetables (cucumber, carrot, tomato, red pepper)

Snack- protein flapjack and some dark chocolate

Dinner- sweet potato wedges roasted in soy sauce, chilli, garlic and paprika, falafel and vegetables

Dessert- soya yoghurt with granola

Snack- wholemeal toast with jam and peanut butter, green tea

I would say that I eat very balanced and I'm in good health! I eat intuitively and listen closely to what my body wants, eating when I'm hungry and stopping when I'm nicely full, answering my cravings. If I want pizza or a veggie burger I will for sure have it! I usually always have some form of 'unhealthy' food a day, balance is key. When I'm out with friends I will treat myself for sure, cake, pina coladas, the lot

Hi ethereal, your diet sounds fantastic. So glad to hear of your recovery. Sounds like you are keeping a great balance there. You must feel very strong and healthy !

I can't remember the last time I ate 3 meals in one day.

I usually eat one or two meals a day. Sometimes they are very healthy and sometimes not! If I have a craving for snacks, I'll usually replace a meal with the snacks.

I'll be honest and say that my diet is due entirely to laziness. I lost over 2 stone by exercising, running and going to the gym 4 times a week at least. Back then, I would eat a lot more. These days, I don't have the time to exercise as much so I've had to cut way back on how much I eat to maintain the weight I want to be. I could still eat tons of super healthy foods but they usually take a lot of effort to prepare.

I also drink a lot of green tea, peppermint tea and coffee.

It was a good week up until weekend. All week I had good enough food and proper amountsof it. Even did my cardio all 5 days.
Then weekend came in. Me and lads had an Russian sauna on Saturday night with staying in. So savage night of drink, smoke and food and sauna. Next day, when I finally got home, I went for a big feck off kebab. It was lovely, but today my stomach and "hole" are in bits... I am already on throne 3 times since I started work at 6:00... I just can't handle greasy kebabs as I used too...
