I'm exactly like you except my parents are immigrants, so I'm not "part" anything I suppose, but definitely an American myself. I always am healthy and have a health weight but I am a size 8-10 and can't get thin or look good in a bathing suit- I mean actually good- without doing a more "conscious eating" lifestyle, like what a nutrition coach might give you. I love veggies etc and eat them happily but if I "ate what I wanted" it would be all the veggies AND all the carbs.

I honestly just think some people have a bigger appetite. I have to kind of continually try to train myself to bring it down and moderate. I hate processed foods but I still love quantity of good food.

Of course they are, its content marketing, they aren't pretending to be journalists here. This is all just consumable content and advertising.

Sounds more like a balanced diet to me.


No one mentioned that what she was eating was the issue. It’s the food withholding when you’re clearly hungry.


Waiting for an actual meal rather than snacking all day is not “withholding.”

You're kid of missing that she starts from a baseline of skipping one meal. It's intermittent fasting, which is not necessarily unhealthy but it's funny to see her type it up the set of trict eating rules she's set for herself that she sticks to even when she's hungry and then say "I don't diet." That's a diet, bb.

Ummm, yeah, you do diet.

How is not eating when you’re not hungry, “dieting”? Healthy adults don’t have to have three squares a day.


Different poster. Many people eat around a meal time because they are starting to feel hungry. You don’t eat anything from dinner on day one to at least lunch on day 2, even if hungry...unless you’re “reeeeally” hungry. You essentially do intermittent fasting until your next meal that you’re really, really hungry for. That’s dieting.

High protein, high carb, big steaks and no skimping on fat??

Get your cholesterol checked, because you can't tell me that you eat like that daily and your cholesterol is in the healthy range.

This is not just dieting, but if PP has been eating like this for a number of years, it's also disordered eating.

My sister is tail thin and eats whatever she wants and always has. But she doesn’t eat a ton of it. She always been really good - innately - about portion control. Even as a kid she’s eat half the piece of cake or a third of the bowl of ice cream. She’d have the burger but only a few fries. She’d have a slice of pizza, maybe two, but not more.

Portion control is key.

It seemed like she drank coffee for breakfast and didn’t eat until dinner most days. Not a great Grub Street Diet.

She doesn't really say how much she eats. She might make/buy all this food and then eat a bite or two. Also, if you are only eating lunch and dinner, with no breafkast or snacks or sodas, it's hard to pack in calories even on pretty rich food.

I made the Bon Appetit Bolognese after reading this and honestly, it was good but not worth all the fiddly steps. Plus it doesn't make a lot--it was barely enough sauce for 4 servings.
