** WHOLE VS. PROCESSED FOODS **


As I'm eating salads lately, I started thinking about this. Here are some thoughts...

Whole foods (not the Amazon subsidiary) are foods that retain their general, original structure.

Let's get our minds off Twinkies when thinking of processed foods for a moment though.

Once something is chopped, pulverized, mashed, or dehydrated, it is no longer "whole" in terms of how your body sees it.

Ground beef is, technically processed, for example.

Many calories burned in life are from the digestion process. Your body enjoys a challenge (it's called TEF - Thermic Effect of Food).

By eating "pre-digested" foods, it is super easy for your body to finish processing them which will leave you hungry for more soon after.

It also requires more of these processed foods in order to hit the snooze on the "I'm still hungry" alert from your tummy. This is why bingeing is such an issue.

The danger with processed food is that a lot of it is not "fluffy". It gets into your stomach and your body says "We are not full, dude. GIVE US MOAR!"



Your body WANTS to feel FULL. This requires QUANTITY of food.

Your body NEEDS to get NUTRIENTS. This requires QUALITY of food.



Think about drinking a 1-cup protein shake as compared with eating a lean cut of steak of equal protein proportions:

(1) The steak tastes so much better, so you'll get full of the amount of food (bulk), but you could easily eat more if this weren't the limiting factor.

(2) The protein shake will not fill you up as much, but it is so dense that you'll get all the nutrients the steak has to offer (minus the fat) within a few moments, which leaves you craving more to get your stomach full.


The long and short of it is, you need BALANCE. You need the fullness (veggies, fibrous foods, and liquids wil all do this) mixed in with the nutrient density. Mix it up so you're getting full while still maximizing your intake of desired nutrients.

Good stuff! Princess, you've been in a serious deficit all week. No wonder you are feeling starved! ❤️

So what I heard is that I can indeed have a cinnamon roll... nice  
17 Okt 20 oleh anggota: blessed0989
Will you save one for me, blessed? ❤️😇

I want whole foods too, the whole Twinkie and the whole cinnamon roll 😊 Instead I’ll have salmon with quinoa, broccoli and vegan brownies. But yeah what you are saying makes sense!

Oh yes plenty left Meilssa :) my daughter had a sleep over last night and I made Them some treats :)

Haha nooo I had salmon and snap peas !!! They had the rolls I did eat one after legs and reading this today though !! But I also ate the salmon with it for whole food protein as you said !!

Yay - thanks. I have been on the QUALITY bandwagon for years. I agree with caloric deficit is the way to do it overall - AND the body needs to be filled with healthy nutritious food to operate at its best - Diablo and I used to argue that it didn't matter if he was in a deficit if he was eating Burger King...it would still be bad for him. Not sure where everyone stands now but I always thing HEALTHY calories in - calories out.

I eat a whole bag of frozen veggies to accomplish that "full" feeling for a couple minutes 🤣

I mostly eat things with ingredients I can pronounce in them. I do like Twinkies though.  
17 Okt 20 oleh anggota: Katsolo
Including deep fried rolled tortillas? And cookies? 
17 Okt 20 oleh anggota: srossca
Yup. Know how to make both from scratch, and i can pronounce everything in both.

Love the explanation, dude! 🙌🏻 My biggest gripe about processed food is all the added salt. I may get the same amount of cals or protein from a frozen dinner and a meal I make myself with “whole” ingredients, but the salt in the frozen stuff will make me hate myself in the morning! 🐡 Balance is definitely key.
