Many nutrition gurus will tell you this meal is unhealthy.

White potatoes “aren’t Paleo.”

Whole30 would say there’s sugar in that organic ketchup.

Vegans will be horrified by the red meat.

Weston Pricers will be mad that my burger isn’t grass fed.

Real foodies will tsk tsk about the fries coming pre-made from a freezer bag.

The USDA will be concerned about how much saturated fat and sodium is in the meal.

Keto promoters won’t even know where to start. (Are green beans a carb?)

The IIFYM crowd won’t appreciate that I didn’t weigh and measure my portion sizes.

The intuitive eating crowd will be unhappy that I skipped the bun so as not to overdo the refined carbs and calories.

My point? No matter WHAT you eat someone could make an argument that it’s not healthy. You’ll never eat a perfect diet no matter how hard you try.

I encourage you to learn what’s right for YOUR unique body, and what foods make you feel your best. Not just physically but mentally and emotionally.

Now excuse me while I enjoy my yummy “unhealthy” dinner. 😉

"I have discovered experienced lifters that lacked the ability to concentrically control the lumbar muscles. These guys immediately improved their pulling and squatting upon being shown how to produce the contraction – immediately meaning the next set."
