Once a day cheat meal

[jay_dub]

Actually there’s not a single study that backs up that one “bad” meal a day is harmful. People can lose weight eating twinkies and health markers improve. I don’t even agree with calling any food bad. The difference between medicine and poison is the dose.

I agree with you 100% bro.

Getting too caught up in eating "clean" 100% of the time can be very detrimental to some people. I know it used to be that way for me.

I think all of that fades by getting in touch with our bodies and learning to identify when our bodies are telling us we are truly hungry. Intuition will tell us everything we need to know, it's all about being able to recognize and identify the cues.

It's something Phil Hernon used to preach like crazy around here and I never fully understood what he meant (but I sure thought I did) until getting completely out of this lifestyle and coming back with a clean slate and mindset. It's mind blowing how simple eating is once you learn how to listen correctly. I spent years and years working soooo hard in a constant battle with myself with food. I overate clean foods like crazy and it just added extra stress, mentally and physically. Now all I do is listen.


Edit: sorry for all the replies, I'm still getting used to this 5 minute edit timeout since being back
