I cook a lot, and my friends do too, so there's always something good.  I had my friends beef bourginion (sp?) for lunch today (no veggies though!) and I have a delicious aubergine lasagna to go home to (cooked for my veggie friend).  So in that regard I have a pretty good diet.  I try not to snack out too much, and when I do I try to have a youghurt or something healthy.  But I do need to eat more veg, and I do get cravings for a chicken royale.

Oh but hell you should see the pizzas I cook.  I'd say it's almost as good as you can get outside of a pizza oven.  Took me a fair few to nail it down though.

Soda is the biggest culprit, even Diet soda causes your body to retain water. When I hit my late 20's, I cut soda, started working out, and drastically changed my diet paying attention to food allergies. Fueling properly isn't something you can do on McShit or wherever.

If I told people what my diet was like, I'd probably get called a tree-hugging hippy or some other such nonsense, so here we go. My "Junk Food" is the occasional Deli Sandwich (not subway) or home-cooked cajun/creole food (i.e. jumbalaya, etoufee, red beans & rice with hot sauce, gumbo, a crawfish po' boy, etc.). Other than that, I eat mostly vegan or vegetarian meals during the week with no dairy products. 
 


This is insane.  I hit my late 20s - say 28 and was just sick of being overweight.  Cutting Soda was an EPIC win.  I dropped 20 lbs within two months, then kicked in some exercise (nothing crazy) and am proud to say I'm in the best shape of my life!!  My diet is also very similar to yours.......  However, I do splurge with the occasional Subway Tuna Sammich  ;)

It's like we're twins BR!

All those health fads are annoying.  I like when fat vegetarians tell me that McDonalds is going to make me fat.  Eating vegetables covered in ranch dressing and cheese is just as bad, dumbshits.  That's why you're a 300lb vegetarian.

I just eat healthy during the week...usually it's like tuna, fruits, salady crap, soup whatnot.  It's all pretty decent.

the weekends:  Twinkies, slim jims, beefaroni, big macs, whatever.  Usually ends up being Rally's or Taco Bell.  I don't binge eat the stuff, I just go out and get enough to stop making me hungry.

Bottled water is stupid.  I like drinking metal.

I also exercise enough to make me not worry.  I'm at the age where I don't have to quite yet, but might as well get a head start.

Just like most things Soda is a sometimes treat.  I had one today, and it was the first one I've had in weeks.  Mind you, I do have a stash of rootbeer (it can be expensive and hard to find in the UK), but it should last a long time.

I don't think I could be a vegetarian, let alone vegan, but there are some things I love making but I know I have to kind of "save up" good food to be allowed it.  Once you know what goes in things, you're more inclined to think before shovelling it into your gaping maw.  Mac and Cheese is a good case in point, you can't eat that shit every day, but god is it good.

I like meat too much to be a tree hugger.

Corndogs and chicken wings = success.  Vegetarians are idiots.

Dude, it's vegans I can't stand.  I had what pretty much amounts a flame war on my friends facebook wall. She's a vegan and so are her friends, and they were being all high and mighty about how superior and good they all were.  Dicks.  I pointed out a huge list of things that meant they were all going to hell, including bottled water, cocacola, driving a car, owning and consumer electronics or cheap clothing, Nikes, drug use etc.

It was as close as you can get to punching someone through the internet.  God they pissed me off.

I think vegetarians / vegans in general are just stupid.  We are made foar teh meats.  We have teeth for it.  We've been eating it since forever.

That's fine, though.  They can be retards all they want.  More steak for me.

But what you just described, that is when I really hate a vegan/vegetarian.  Eat what you want but don't preach to me that I'm a murderer for eating a cow.  That high and mighty vegan foofoo crap makes me really annoyed.

I usually tell these idiots to go tell Mr. Lion that they don't eat meat.  I'm sure he'll appreciate your stupidity as he claws your face and eats your insides.

then I tell them bunnies are decapitated by those things that harvest shit out in fields.

There are some people that just wont listen but, I wouldn't say that all vegans are generally bad. Some of them may honestly believe that they're doing something worth while.
It's when they go in to stores and start slapping little stickers on meat products that read "Animals suffered to make this product" that I draw the line.

Seriously. This happened at the Super Wal-Mart Center just up the road a few years ago.
I took some of the stickers home with me and put them on my bicycle.
Even the butcher in the grocery department had them stuck on his hat.

vegan food is ok sometimes, but it's usually served by some loud mouth chick in a tablecloth dress, preaching about how cows are mistreated.

They were protesting at a concert once, against KFC.

and talked about cows.

I said "the C stands for CHICKEN, not cow.  You're all dumb!"

then we ordered some KFC and convinced them to deliver it to the venue.  We ate KFC while watching the anti KFC video.

lulz were had.

tears were shed.

Lol. Crazy isn't it?

And regarding vegans, I know some who wear wool and aren't B7 deficient. Yes, some, perhaps MANY annoying-ass wingers are SO obsessed with animal rights and the ethics of eating meat, and wear nothing but annoying rayon/polyester jumpsuits and throw PETA literature into your minivan when they pass you on the freeway. Some do it because it because of severe food allergies, and could care less, some because they have to work with animals and it grosses them out, and some do it because it because of the positive energy benefits like training for a marathon or having a low-energy impact on the environment.

I say f*ck it. If it makes you feel good, do it. For my uncle, that was red meat 3 days a week, half a pack of luckies and 2 scotch hi-balls a night.

I'm cool with vegetarians/vegans with real reasons for doing it.

Wanting to preach like a pretentious sperm burper is not a real reason.

I know this girl that doesn't eat meat because she gets sick when she does.  So she just eats vegetables and shit.  Sometimes she'll eat meat, and be like f*ck.  DAMNIT.
