This article explores the possibility of maintaining a lean physique while consuming junk food, emphasizing the importance of calorie balance and nutritional quality.
Don’t be fat already
Obviously fatsos have emotional over-eating problems. They don’t eat until satiated, they eat to gluttonous excess. They binge eat to quiet the demons, or something. I don’t care why they eat so much, the point is that if you want to eat junk food and be
lean YOU MUST NOT BINGE EAT ALL THE TIME. Fat people should take drastic measures to lose their lard, and that is the subject of another article. In this article we will share how normal men can enjoy some tasty treats and not develop a spare tire around the midsection.
Don’t binge eat, and eat your junk food at night
Again, this must be stated. DON’T BINGE EAT! Eat your snack, enjoy it, and then quit.
The way to not binge eat is to only buy what you want to eat that evening.
Do not buy a weeks worth of snacks and keep them in the cupboard, that weeks worth of
snacks you were clever enough to buy ahead of time can easily turn into two days worth
of snacks.
If you want junk food, buy it one day at a time and eat it at night. If you eat it during the day
you will often think to yourself “well, that sure was good. I should go get some more” and
then you will have all day to think about eating some more snacks.
When you eat at night, before bed, you are tired and won’t want to leave to go pickup
more junk food. Don’t buy a ton of junk to eat at night, buy enough to satiate your junk
hunger and call it quits.
Eat sugary junk food pre-workout
Typically the only time I will eat sugary chocolate bars is when I am heading to the gym
and I am hungry. I will often grab two Snickers bars and eat them on the way to the gym IF,
and only IF, I am very hungry and need energy.
I don’t do this everyday, only when I am hungry and need some calories to lift. Then I go to
the gym and lift like a maniac and burn through all those sugar calories.
Do not eat snacks in addition to your regular meals, eat snacks in place of meals
Replace fat or carbohydrates with junk food. You may also skip carb
or fat meals at different times throughout the day. Just remember that when you want to
eat junk food you need to remove a carb or fat meal from somewhere else. Replace the
calories, don’t add additional calories.
If you typically eat a 5 egg omelette for dinner and you want to eat junk food as well what
you can do is make a 7 egg omelette, but only use one or two egg yolks and 5 egg whites
and then eat your junk food snack.
Lift weights like a man
Obviously you should be in the gym most days per week, liftin’ weights and burnin’
cals. Cardio can be utilized if extra fat burning is required, and it is best done first thing in
the morning on an empty stomach.
Personally, I don’t do any cardio and I rely on my lifting sessions to keep me fit. Unless
you’re really, really super trying to get lean (or you are fat) then cardio isn’t necessary.
Weights will be enough for the average fella to stay lean and mean and be able to enjoy
some tasty treats every now and again.
BONUS: Coconut Smoothie Recipe
Coconut smoothies are the most delicious drink on the face of the earth, and now you will
be able to make your very own.
You’ll need a blender and the following ingredients: coconut, ice, sugar, condensed milk
- Buy a coconut
- Open the coconut with a machete or chainsaw
- Pour the coconut water into a blender
- Use a spoon to scoop out all the coconut meat from inside the coconut into the
blender - Pour ice into the blender (1-2 cups)
- Pour condensed milk into the blender (1-2 spoons worth)
- Pour sugar water into the blender –*heat a mug half-filled with water in the microwave
for 2.5 minutes, put about 5-6 spoonfuls of table sugar into the hot water and stir it
well – add this sugar water concoction to your coconut smoothie, the amount you
will add is taste dependent. You can put a lid on your sugar water, put it in the fridge
and use it again next time. - Blend, pour, drink and enjoy your fresh coconut smoothie
I always drink my coconut smoothies post workout.
For an extra protein kick you can add liquid egg whites to your coconut smoothie. Egg
whites do not degrade the flavor and they give you your post workout protein.
It’s a win-win situation and everybody’s happy.
Enjoy.
