Okay but have you ever eaten a rice cake?Healthy food tastes rubbish.
Unhealthy food tastes great.
No, I'm not giving that as a set of facts to live by. It's not actually true either, it's just a thing that some people take for granted.
I will have done. Not particularly nice. Prefer carrot cake thank you. And cheese cake.Okay but have you ever eaten a rice cake?
Are you trying to tell me that chocolate milk is cheaper than ordinary milk?Unhealthy food is cheaper than healthy food.
But you need to eat more of it to get enough protein. So you get fat.
I've lost loads of weight in the last year. Eating healthier food, but less of it. I spend a lot more on food than I used to.
That started well but went wrong quickly. You get the gist.Are you trying to tell me that chocolate milk is cheaper than ordinary milk?
Or that Corn Flakes are cheaper than Frosties?
Or tap water is cheaper than diet Coke?
No sale.
Well done on the weight loss though. I've lost a stone or so in lockdown too, more by exercise than diet. And there is the other side of the eat less / move about more equation.

So the problem you have is poor people having a treat.
Frosties have the same number of calories as cornflakes. They're both rubbish.
I was talking about proper meals.
Food that's mainly carbohydrates - potatoes, bread, pasta, rice etc, is cheaper than nutritious stuff like protein and vegetables. If you fill yourself up with carbs you'll have lots of calories, but you'll get hungry sooner because your body craves protein, so you keep eating more cheap carbs until you get the protein you need.
My weight loss slowed down since lockdown started. There has been some comfort eating...
I lost 73 pounds between August and the start of lockdown. But only 13 pounds since then.
It's difficult to lose weight by doing more exercise. It takes a lot of exercise to burn a relatively small number of calories. You could go for a three mile walk, or you could choose not to have a twix, which would have the same effect in terms of calories in/out. I've lost weight the easy way, by not having the twix.

It's packed lunches as well. Which is cheaper to stick in a packed lunch: a packet of crisps and a penguin, or a seed bar?Are you trying to tell me that chocolate milk is cheaper than ordinary milk?

Total agreement from me there. Also, (intense) exercise makes you hungry so, if you're not careful, that congratulatory takeaway curry undoes all your hard work. IMHO, if you only want to lose weight then ignore the gym. Exercise, yes, but keep it sedate. Eat healthy and walk. Of course, there's more to the gym/exercise than weight loss.
I reckon the whole 'calories in/out' paradigm is both overly simplistic and unhelpful... but that's for another forum.
Crisps are cheaper than apples.How about a packet of crisps or an apple?
£2.50 in Sainsbury’s for 6 pink lady apples. I’m a jazz man myself but they’re still about £2 for 6.Crisps are cheaper than apples.
