my school forced me to get a mealplan if i lived on campus, and i really tried to make the most of it. the cafeteria was a buffet-type thing with tons of different options, but i ignored most of it and just went for: - grilled chicken - tuna (without the mayo) - sometimes whatever daily meat they have (meatloaf, or turkey, or baked chicken, sometiems fish) - various salad greens and spinach - hardboiled eggs - some bacon and sausage - whatever steamed vegetables they had, either carrots, squash, broccoli, etc, or some of their vegan options) - whole milk, tea, or water | ||

I was, however, in the army, which is where I learned the value of finding cheap ways to shop and owning a hotplate. The food in the dining halls was, if you had time to go, atrocious and fake. Ignoring the fake part, I was a huge fan of eating tastier food, less time involved. Lunch was generally a lunchmeat sandwich, unless a group of us had time to slip off post for a Chinese buffet or some such. It was cafeteria line style, no buffet, and the food was pure, utter shit. It was generally about as "real" as Doritos. It tasted like shit, and people had a nasty tendency to get sick eating there. | ||

i meant to address that to Froadac. sorry for the confusion. at the army though, did you find any ways of coping with the terrible food? or did you just go along with it and tolerate the "fake" food? i pretty much ate school lunches everyday in high school, but i wasnt very health conscious back then anyway. | ||

Does anyone have any good sites that are suited for finding the calorie counts in chinese dishes? Do you mean you eat at Chinese restaurants frequently? If Schezuan-style places in Australia are anything like the ones here, don't eat at them if you value your health. TONS of vegetable oil, corn starch and added sugar. If it's more traditional Chinese food just add the calories of the components separately. | ||

Currently following Leangains protocol. Going low fat on off days and eating starchy carbs (rice and/or potatoes) on lifting days. But this paleo book I'm reading 'primal body, primal mind' seems to encourage removing starchy carbs completely. I'm not keen on low carb ideas. But idk anymore, not majoring in nutrition. :s Opinions? | ||

If you do better with a bunch of carbs, then that's probably the way to go for you. Some may recommend swapping rice for brown rice. | ||

Spreading truth and knowledge is good for the world, and thus eventually, the benefits will return to us. But there are so many lost causes out there that's it's not worth a second thought. I bask in my superiority  edit -spelling edit2 - misspelled spelling lol | ||

But those random people out there? I couldn't give two shits about them. In fact, they're a very reliable source of entertainment.

I bask in my superiority edit -spelling edit2 - misspelled spelling lol It comes down to your opinion of the human race as a whole. I generally stick with somewhere between mildly bemused and pissed, so I'm usually of the opinion that as long as a person's idiocy isn't contagious, it's fine. It's only when they feel the need to push it on other people that it's a problem. Kind of like the recent USA thing where it's now illegal to brand cigarettes "light". Let them naturally select, and maybe I won't want to run people off the road in traffic so often. | ||
