The Simpsons can teach you stuff
You don’t win friends with salad, you don’t win friends with salad
God I love The Simpsons
Knowledge bombs in every episode
And Bart was right – you don’t win friends with salad!
Clean eating involves restricting a load of foods and gorging on plain meat, coconut oil and lots of rabbit food
^ I’m not a fan of course
I very rarely see a person pick up a piece of lettuce and say YUM
^ unless it’s covered with a burger
My own diet plan involves eating what I want with pretty much zero foods being restricted
Yes that means I do eat pizza, ben’n’jerrys and haribo
And yes I do have abs on show at the moment
See IF It Fits Your Macros (IIFYM) is all about hitting your target protien, fats and carbs along with a high fibre intake
Ok you can’t eat a mountain of ‘bad’ food to achieve those but you still have a few bits of pieces
Like yesterday I had a bag of wheelies, some thai food and a few celebration sweets (even tho all the malteasers were gone)
I still had lots of eggs and chicken
BUT more importantly my diet doesn’t feel like a normal diet
And it’s fun, cheap and very very manageable
It’s a fantastic feeling buying your food for the week and not avoiding certain isles
I can hit up the fruit and veg section and then immediately grab a few bagels and not feel guilty
It’s even more hilarious when people see me with a bumper pack of wheelies
Some give me the judgemental look
They must think that a 100 calorie bag of crisps is gonna turn me into a fat mess
And if you have the same opinion then I feel very very sorry for ya
Imagine feeling guilty over 100 calories?!
Time to educate yourself on food and ENJOY yourself!
