This sounds like the saddest way to lose weight though…Like using abstinence as means of birth control and STD prevention.

- wpietri 4y agoYeah, I'd rather make good food exciting. One of the things I love about living in California is the good produce. So many vegetables are delicious just roasted (until you get some carmelization) with a little olive oil and salt. Just stellar when fresh out of the oven or off the grill.
- gofreddygo 4y agoThats not sad. Looking up the actual meaning of chemical names from ingredients in fine print on every damn thing you eat, and filtering in and out based on gossip hype superfood of the year... is sad. Very sad. Eat boring food is solid advice. Veggies, fruits, no bullshit carbs and protein, stuff that grows in the region where you live. Takes some effort to search and then its just autopilot mode.
- ido 4y agoThat’s not boring food to me! I can cook very exciting meals from what you mentioned. If you meant “avoid junk food” than I agree, but the alternative to processed food doesn’t have to be boring.
- gofreddygo 4y agoBoring here refers to "nothing new". It can be made super sexy and delicious. But it needs making. Point I was trying to make is its not hard after a few tries.
- sshine 4y agoI think that “boring” here means “low sugar, few additives”. And yes, you can cook even better tasting food with pure ingredients and the right spices and cooking methods. But I also like to cook “boring” most of the time, in the sense of “giving my body something fulfilling with expectable taste”.
- brad0 4y agoA more apt comparison would be sex vs pornography. Both junk food and pornography hijack the reward center of your brain. Whereas real food and sex are both normal, healthy things.
