Since I've Been Eating Right I Can't Find Anything To Eat!!!!

F the FDA!!!

Might catch something....lol

Welcome to the reality of it all.

Try going to Argentina, that's where I'm at right now. Fucking impossible to eat healthy unless you're really really motivated. As in, willing to spend over 3 hours looking and traveling.

I have a feeling it's only going to get worse.

Same here. I went straight Keto, I eat zero or very little carbohydrates outside of fiber and some green vegetables. I eat zero root vegetable, bread, grains, gluten, cereals, or sugars. The longer I go without carbs the less the cravings get. When I started I had intense cravings for carbohydrates. I'm a recovering addict / alcoholic (10 years clean) and I can tell you the withdrawal from carbohydrates was more intense than the drugs and alcohol, both mentally and physically. I do give myself a "free day" every now and then and on those days (about once every two months) I take amylase inhibitors so I don't process the sugar / carbs. I strictly eat fatty meats, butter, oils, and fresh raw vegetables (uncooked and washed) as organic as I can find. My body has adapted to becoming full of energy all day, no lulls in the afternoon, on about 1250 calories a day.

The only thing I changed was how I eat. I eat about 70% FAT 25% protein 5% carbohydrates (from raw vegetables). I do not exercise at all and I've lost 21 pounds so far in 6 months. When I get hungry I do not get shaky or light headed anymore either.

This really began as an experiment and has turned more into a lifestyle. Going to grocery stores at least offer the opportunity of choice. Eating at restaurants can be very challenging because you have zero idea where the food comes from.

Kudos to you OP. The more people jumping on this bandwagon of eating properly and responsibly will, hopefully, push the GMOs out in favor of more quality foods. And when I say responsibly I don't mean going out and making some social statement, I mean responsibly for yourself, the individual. It's become impossible to convince others to eat well when they've been lied to in order to facilitate the sale of all that crap on the shelves.

I have that soooo often. I was trying to get some fruit juice yesterday so looked at the cartons of fruit juice. There's hardly any juice in them, just water and loads of added sugars and even high fructose syrup. It's yuck. One kind of stuff which is called 50/50 used to called that because it had 50% fruit and 50% water and nothing more. Good choice huh? Well, it changed it's now 50/50 because it has 50% less sugar added than other fruit crap and the amount of fruit has been lowered to 15-20% or something.

Try to find something to drink, anything, without added sugars. Sure, there's light stuff with no sugar added blahblah but guess what: FULL of artificial sweeteners...

It's your choice nowadays: diabetes (sugar) or cancer (art. sweeteners).

I choose filtered water, fuckers.

Yea i feel the same way! nothing good to eat here in the states...


DUDE, I went to visit family in mexico and I swear on my

fucking life that going to a supermarket there was almost a

spiritual experience! the food i saw was nothing short

of AMAZING!!!!! the most fresh fruits and vegetables ever,

products that are being also sold in the USA are MUCH, MUCH better in every way in Mexico.

I swear I almost cried tears of joy eating there WOW...

coming back to the states truly made realize just how bad

foodwise we have it here :(

I had changed my diet back in 2009 when we realized that my significant other was having bad allergic reactions to just about every food that we had always been eating before, without him feeling like he was about to die.

We became very disturbed when he began to feel like he had no energy which then caused him to need to sleep a lot more than usual.

When we finally decided to see if we could do anything to stop the downward spiral we found it to be very challenging to our souls.

I took it upon myself to do extensive research as to why his health was deteriorating rapidly, especially when he seemed to be able to handle it before, without it getting to the level that it did in 2009.

During my extensive research I discovered that food was no longer real food and that we were deliberately being poisoned by a company named Monsanto, which other Countries would not allow to tamper with its food.

What disturbs me the most about the whole situation is that our own Gov't is backing Monsanto 100%. The Gov't went as far as protecting Monsanto from any lawsuits that they knew would happen because many peoples bodies would reject Monsanto GMO frankenfoods.

Say no to Dairy products, which includes: Milk, Butter, Cheese, and Yogurt.

Instead of using Dairy the better solution is to use Almond Milk products.

Diary products are full of growth hormones and antibiotics. Unless you purchase your milk from a small farm which doesn't' feed their cattle GMO grains and shoot them up with those other things, you are setting yourself up with devastating health issues down the road.

Stick to 20-30 grams of carbs a day and you don't even need to exercise to lose weight

Your body uses fat as fuel at that point so it just burns away. It's all the carbs we consume that make us fat. And yeah, it is hard to eat when you cut out the sugar/carbs because they're in everything convenient to eat

Yup. California, the producer that provides the majority of produce for the US, is in a heavy drought. Not to mention, the midwest, the major producer of grains, suffered a heavy drought last year and still hasn't recovered.

It's all in the bible though. Pestilence, food costing a bunch, war, etc. The four horsemen.

Good for you OP!

And youre so very right. Go into an American supermarket and it is a sea of poison with a wee bit of life giving FOOD on the edges......

Have about quit milk and I only buy local cheese and butter from the farmers market and don't eat much of it when I do. Better look where that Almond milk comes from........is it Organic? If not pesticide city.

so glad for you - that is a lot of weight, considering also that your exercise means it will not be lost muscle.

saw the pin - very good!

that is a really low amount - I have no doubt you are svelte on that carb amount.

I limit carbs, but not that low. It is truly the food my body needs - protein and fats, with vegetables and some fruit.

yeah believe me, I've been trying to get "healthy" but yeeesh it's a battlefield

Man tell me about it........staying unhealthy is less work. Should be the other way around.

I'm with you OP,

for the past year I've been doing it right.

Only fish and beans for protein and at that only wild caught fish from the north atlantic to avoid fuku radiation.

Lots of veggies and salads from local long island farms.

Lots of stir fry's.

Grapefruit juice from Florida every morning.

Very low carbs.

GYM! Killing it a couple times a week without fail.

I'm down 25 pounds but actually more as put on a lot of muscle.

I have a waist! and abs and arms and legs! Muscle!

Best Wishes,

Frater

PS Oh ya, procuring HEALTHY food is a lot harder, no gmo's if possible but it's not always. I try.

Eating healthy just makes me fart 10x more.

Purty embarrasing when I'm in a library or meeting, etc.

whole grain this, and fiber that ... ... whewwwww

I eat lots of beans myself........what kind do you eat?

LMAO

That was one of my problems when I started to eat right and wanted to avoid all the shit... There is basically 1% of healthy stuff on supermarkets... I can't imagine there in the US.

Is probably less than that..........is all prepared pre packaged processed shit.

Cooked (or fermented from storage) whole grains- barley, rice, rye, oats, not always wheat...are the center of the human plant based diet since we lived in long-term settlements. Fresh killed game provided the vit K2 and rich protein on occasion, but Only the top dogs had fresh killed game every day and refined foods, and They had heart disease etc Just like modern people. While we were wandering tribes, meat could become scarce too and vegetation was still the main food.
Or, like the edge of the ice travelers, a 100% fish based diet works too.
So the Beer and fish diet is best.

grocery stores could be designed as gardens.

instead they are boxed nightmares
and disgusting meat markets.
it is satanic
and wrong.

What is this place? I've been thinking it's time to jump the failing ship that is the US. Finland has been high on my list of places to go, but I don't have much info on the regions there.

Eating healthy is like walking through land mines....I feel your pain!

Eat lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of FRUIT.

um...the point is not to eat packaged/processed foods....duh

I feel your pain. I developed food allergies approx 1 yr ago. I'm allergic to wheat, its bad enough ive went into anaphylactic shock. Well back on the point, food has a bunch of useless filler items in them that isn't very nutritious for you. I have to look at ingredients of everything new I purchase and some of it is downright gross. Good luck on your eating healthy quest.

this is true

i am in great shape now, and it started with eating from the right places, fresh, non processed

this is extremely expensive and not realistic for most people unfortunately

i spend about $50 a day on food, it would be a lot cheaper if i cooked, but due to time constraints i have to have food prepared

consider that mcdonalds is cheap and subsidized food, the cheeseburger (and variants are what people subsist on [with ebts])

pretty much learn to cook italian, french, and indian, or get rich..
