i know i knowww.. people feel great about themselves when they are healthy.
but maintaining your health means you have to stray away from pizza, fried chicken, ice cream, pasta.. the list just goes on! seems like all the tasty food happens to be bad for your health lol.

so basically the question is.. would you rather eat whatever you want and drooling for and gain weight from it, or stick away from the yummy food and eat your veggies to maintain/gain an attractive body?

[i just wanna know how you guys feel, cause when i was getting back into shape it was hell and suffering to not be able to eat what i wanna lol]

the people with fast metabolism can stay away from this thread! you lucky punks


also - i know its tough cause most overweight people are probably not happy about themselves... but getting to be able to eat whatever you want to is what i'm trying to say.

Actually, food wise. It never really matter to me.
I think its the whole process of getting it and papering it or giving thoughts to whats healthy or not that seem to be my issue.

I would want to be at least content and happy.

So I dont mind the healthy foods and all the veggies like salad.
I actually like the salads more then w/e ever the protein is in it cause I always end up finishing the salad then the meats.

[RITSUKO]

Actually, when I gave up all that yummy food, I was miserable for the first few weeks. But, i've gotten used to the food I eat now, and actually crave healthy food and I learned to eat sweets/greasy/oily/fried food in moderation. I think i'd rather give up all that yummy food and be skinny. Food is just food, i'll live XD Being healthier is much better in the end.

i have fast metabolism but i eat healthy. salad is my best friend. when my friends
see me eating salad, they tell me to fatten up and start eating deep fried food and
whatnot. even though i'm totally underweight for my age, i still rather eat healthy
cause it just tastes better.

Yeah me too. It probably depends on food preferences, but I can still be happy and perfectly content eating healthy foods because I'd prefer that over a diet of grease and sugar, and I can get a slim body from it. You don't necessarily have to stray away from pizza, chocolate etc but you can have it in small portions which won't make that much of a difference to your weight. You don't need a total ban from these foods, that would make me seriously depressed =X haha

[dramaprincessxox]

Well, you don't have to stay away from yummy stuff to stay slim. It's not really WHAT you eat, it's how much of it you eat So eat what you want, just in smaller quantities. That way you're happy AND slim and pretty at the same time!! lol

It's what I do anyway, and it works for me.

not exactly. not having the freedom to eat as much as i want would make me sad though! see the point i'm getting at? lol

[~S.O.S~]

Second option. Not all unhealthy foods are unsatisfying! I love my sweets, but I rather give them up if I'm going to be fat.

[tinatran_]

to be honest, i'd rather be healthy and sad! i mean, you won't have any (or much) health complications. =D

This is exactly what I was going to say.
Just eat sweets and fatty things in moderation and eat lots of healthy veggies and such alongside it. A little bit of indulgence isn't going to kill you.

[meeyu]

aww i'd rather be sad and healthy >__< in my opinion

[AngelAngel]

How can I be sad when I'm skinny lol?!

Um...this question is based on the assumption that people don't know how to eat though. I mean, if you know how to eat, you can eat good food and be healthy. In fact, most times, people are fat because they eat the wrong kinds of food like fast food or what not. Veggies can tastes great and fried foods should be eaten sparingly. Don't want to eat fried foods all the time anyways.

Like people in France are mad skinny but they come from the land of cheese and wine for goodness sake!

listen, people love icecream, but eating too much icecream is bad for you. but who wouldn't wanna always be able to eat icecream?

of course its okay to eat small portions of each kind, but what if i want a LARGE portion of it? it would make me "SAD" not being able to... cause i'd get fat, but tons of icecream = happiness! lol. you get it? maybe not, i tried explaining to someone else too :/

[Keiyun]

I love vegetables anyway [I'm vegetarian]. My mom also pretty much never buys me junk food.
It's called junk food for a reason. xD

So yeah, I'd rather be healthy and "sad". I wouldn't really miss anything if I stopped eating ice cream or something, since I barely ever eat it anyway.

[Cin De]

healthy and sad
i mean come on! u can't be sad all the damn time lol

[egghead]

Fat and Happy. :]



I mean, sad.... i don't want to be sad, that sorta sucks.
Depression or Happiness? Happiness for the win.

[Chanellas]

happy > sad
when i was fat i was sad. when i was skinny i was sad.
honestly, happiness comes from within, you just gotta work with what you got

ok here's what you do: eat as much ice cream as you can in one sitting!
you're gonna get SOO sick of it that you never want to see ice cream ever again hahah
that way you're not restricting yourself, you'll just stop wanting ice cream on your own

[PoooBear]

I eat to live not live to eat.


So I picked healthy and sad XD
I'm also very deprived of junk food, my mother does not condone it

[Sofakingwet]

Oh man, I'm a man who loves to eat food. And food makes me happy! I can eat a huge meal and be happy and outgoing with laughs after I eat. and you guessed it I am fat as well!

[NorMooNaMoo]

food make me get over the frustration so i'll go for fat and happy.
life is sad enough...
