Thundus_Bear · 2019-11-04T16:20:00+00:00

I literally eat beef strips (not frozen from the bag) with pan seared broccoli with things like sesame seed oil, soy sauce

So much shit in life you can't control. Eating clean and exercise is usually not one of those.

TigPlaze · 2019-11-04T22:19:49+00:00

That's great. And, btw, cooking is a skill that you can improve. Find some fav sites with recipes and maybe Youtube channels and just practice. You'll get better.

Impossible-asset · 2019-11-04T22:57:27+00:00

Yes. I cook whatever I want whenever I want. And I only have my tastes to be concerned with. If I want a delmonico steak 4 nights in a row with three different pan sauces, I have that.

Though I do like trying different vegetable dishes, and i go and buy the freshest, organic, farm-to-table stuff I can find. And I hope to start growing my own soon. Zucchini, peppers, and possibly an apple tree, not sure yet.

Mgtow gives me that freedom. Used to have a girlfriend who was impossible to please with my cooking. Didnt like this, didnt want that, cooking was expensive and stupid. Blah blah blah.

Well, cooking is expensive when I use the highest quality ingredients. And I'm good with cooking for two, and eating both portions myself.

Keto/Carnivore.

1st10Amendments · 2019-11-05T00:28:41+00:00

Yes. I began the “Intermittent Fasting” D𝐢e𝐭 and have cut way back on my intake of sugar.

catsoncows · 2019-11-05T01:03:01+00:00

One thing I learned after years of "Fine Dining", The Food network, "foodie women" and personally knowing professional chefs came down to this: If you can read, you can cook! I am far from being a professional level cook but I can follow directions. And the more you do it the more you learn and the better you get at it. Not rocket science, just experience. But in my years of living of living alone and cooking for my self I found that a Slo cooker/ crock pot is a single persons' best friend. It is really is taking food, veggies and meat , cutting it all up, adding a seasoning packet and throwing it in a pot Yes waiting hours , no instant gratification (I'm sure there's MGTOW philosophy about that somewhere) to come home to the healthiest meals for the cheapest price possible. Chili fan? the best possible from raw (cheapest) ingredients Stew fan? no more left-overs for the cost of a bullion cube Also ,depending on the size of your crock pot you've just made several meals at once...remember the instant gratification thing? One my fav's Dr Pepper pulled pork 1- 3 to 7 lb pork butt/shoulder roast (usually the cheapest meat value check it for yourself) 1 or 2 large onions 1 or 2 cans of Adobo sauce depending on can size and how spicy you like your food 1 liter of Dr Pepper Just quarter cut the onions and put on the bottom of the pot so the roast doesn't stick And simply put everything else in the crock pot Check at 4 hours especially if on high setting maybe turn the roast Youll see the cheapest/ toughest cuts of meat get " fork tender" in a crock pot Side fact..I ve notice more people having soup partys in stead of pot luck dinners and theyre fun, cheaper and more creatively exotic And remember the future is free male

Incitatus_Horseman · 2019-11-05T02:37:52+00:00

Make good use of youtube and your cooking will improve very quickly. Find a few relatively easy and affordable recipes and master them.

avtarius · 2019-11-05T05:15:42+00:00

I live in a city of convenience so my time is spent on sleeping, personal time, and work time.

Healthy food is everywhere here and it's just an app order away, and transportation is the same.

No need to own anything which ties me down, my liquidity allows me to go wherever I want, to do whatever I want to.

Yes, more freedom more choices.

notadaddy · 2019-11-05T07:59:50+00:00

You don’t even have to cook. Get a George Foreman grill, put chicken it it. As for the rest, raw veggies, fruits and nuts will keep you eating clean , cheap and convenient. That’s how I get by. On the weekend I’ll grab a McDonald’s hamburger and a drink or two. But really, anybody who is overweight and unhealthy is basically sick.

Iceklimber · 2019-11-04T22:02:37+00:00

I had tons of excuses and rationalizations for eating (high stress, high workload, can still fast tomorrow, the food industry is all-powerful with billions of research into alluring advertisements and tasty food...)

MGTOW was part in the emancipation process. I go my own, no one else makes the decisions - the logical conclusion is eating my own way too.

The red pill holds not all answers however. The other aspect of my diet came from an unrelated source.

SimplyKaz · 2019-11-05T11:13:09+00:00

I find cooking pretty theraputic and enjoyable. I definitely notice that when I've been in realtionships in the past, I've eaten out a lot more. Not only can women not cook these days, they're in the habit of treating their bodies like garbage, with fast food and alcohol.

My friend's ex had 3 main staples in her diet. Instant ramen, cinese takeout and nutella (she would literally sit with a dessert and demolish a full jar in one sitting). She didn't see anything wrong with it and was unwilling to change her diet even a little bit. He couldn't do anything to get her to eat something green. It obviously started to rub off on him eventually and he was ordering chinese takeout 3-5 times a week. 7 years on, they both looked like garbage. When they broke it off, he started eating a lot better and working out again; she carried on basically the same. I don't need to tell you which one is still pulling 20 year olds and which one looks double that.

Flesh_Pillow5 · 2019-11-05T14:39:40+00:00

Plant based . I even grow my own microgreens in my apartment. Whole foods, love garlic, Brazil nuts. Pumpkin seeds. Tofu, cold pressed olive oil, omad. Just do what works for you and don't be afraid to Splurge on quality ingredients.

deepspace7 · 2019-11-05T19:07:05+00:00

Cook as much as you can. Stop eating out unless it's an irregular treat. Reduce your added sugar consumption. Many types of dietary styles work, as long as you cook it and not rely on processed food.

I manage my weight well and watch as these landwhales in my office continue to gain weight and complain about how it's so difficult to diet, and they are constantly fussing about going on different diets.

Trapperr_AO · 2019-11-05T22:12:01+00:00

With all the arguments about every new diet and all the conflicting science out there, who the fuck knows if we are eating healthy or not anymore? I had started a low carb diet which is very difficult to follow. I have no energy and feel like shit when I follow it 100%. I have to eat carbs or I can't go to the gym.

DubsPackage · 2019-11-07T19:49:39+00:00

Been cooking for myself for a while now, I'm a damn good cook.

My favorite go-to easy dish is chicken stir-fry, chop up some chicken breast, add veggies and oil, stir it around, salt and pepper, worcestershire sauce, maybe curry paste if you feel like it or whatever else you want. I use onions, green beans, mushrooms, asparagus, bell peppers, whatever I have on hand. Chop it up, throw it in, stir.

Takes 10 minutes and you get a GIANT plate of food that's about the same calories as 1 Whopper.

Another easy one is oatmeal, with a touch of honey and 2 hard boiled eggs on the side. Sticks to your ribs and makes you not hungry for hours and hours, about 500 calories. You can meal prep in tupperware and just nuke it, grab a couple eggs and go.

Last but not least, Crock Pot.

You put a little water on the bottom, some chopped up cheap, tough meat of any kind, whatever veggies you want. I like to put a little tomato sauce and lots of black pepper. Onions, peppers, potatoes, carrots, whatever you want. Curry powder. Go nuts.

I never had a bad tasting thing come out of my crock pot, ever. They were all delicious no matter what I put in. The meat comes out so soft it falls off the bone, and the stew/sauce is heavenly, sop it up with a piece of bread. Takes 10 minutes to prep, 12 hours to cook, and you eat like a king for days.

Ok water.

Someone mentioned water. What water does (as opposed to soda or juice or whatever) is lower your insulin resistance and blood sugar levels. In that regard it is legit healthy for cutting/losing weight.

The proper way to use water (and what they used to do in some armies back in the 50's) is you drink 2 cups of water BEFORE every meal, it fills you up so the food makes you feel even fuller. If you want to go even further, do 2 cups of water + psylium husk (metamucil) before every meal, it expands to fill your stomach so you will tend to eat less, or at least feel more satiated for longer. But the water by itself works, I have friends who lost like 100 pounds just by drinking cups of water before a meal (he would drink like 3-4 cups of water before eating.)

Also I agree with the person that said, "Cooking is awesome but cleaning up sucks." Agree x 100.

My current kitchen is old and sucks and has no space, whoever designed it was a moron, I have no room for anything like a blender, and it has no dishwasher, I literally cook for 10 minutes and spend another 10 minutes cleaning. It sucks.

Setari · 2019-11-04T22:06:25+00:00

Nope. Chicken nuggets + ketchup for months and soda every day at work and home.

I drank water for several months and didn't really feel different. Healthier for me sure, but everyone made it out to be some "life changing thing" and it wasn't. Just went back to soda.

Also fast food on weekends/days off + soda. I'm probably one of the most un-fit people on the planet that can still actually move without the assistance of a wheelchair, but it's getting to that point with all the sodium I'm eating + retaining water in my legs.

Here for a good time, not a long time bois.

leviathanch · 2019-11-04T21:56:33+00:00

I'm actually a really awesome cook. The ironic thing is that I learned that because the mom of the only woman I ever met in my life, who I know I'd marry her, warned me she couldn't cook so I promised that I'd learn it then.

Now that I've #WMOW I put it to good use what I've learned.

Not surprising I know lots of traditional Portugues dishes (which are all super easy and quick to do BTW!) but picked up plenty of other international dishes up on the way too.

Try this soup for instance. https://www.foodfromportugal.com/recipes/carrot-soup/

Considering that she knows how it tastes from her mom I bet even she could manage. Not that I'd ever consider that. I really enjoy cooking on my own now very much so that I wouldn't wanna delegate this task to anyone if possible. In addition: It gives me a nice additional feeling of independence.

MJD200 · 2019-11-04T16:20:04+00:00

Sure, I eat alot of fruit and veg. Usually have some greek yogurt with blueberries, bananas and some oats for breakfast. For dinner it's usually chicken breasts with rice, mushrooms and pepper. I like omelettes and stuff too. About a few months ago I wasn't eating as well, but since doing so I have alot more energy and my skin is alot smoother oddly.

DangZagnut · 2019-11-04T16:25:49+00:00

I love cooking. Cook for 6 hours straight for a 20 minute meal? No problem. Shop all around town to get the right ingredients? No worries.

I use the healthiest more natural ingredients, but the problem is what I make isn't necessarily "healthy" depending on how you define it. Is a broiled ribeye with butter all over it healthy?

From a keto standpoint sure. But otherwise, not so much. Jambalaya can be healthy but not if you make too much of it or use too much butter to make a roux for etouffee or something.

So are we talking ingredients or caloric count or macros balance?

Bluffernaut09 · 2019-11-04T16:46:34+00:00

Definitely! I eat mostly healthy stiff but have no problem eating sushi from time to time.

ogrelin · 2019-11-04T16:49:28+00:00

Cooking rules. Doing the dishes is what really sucks.

yourmomhasebolaids · 2019-11-04T17:02:35+00:00

No, but I've been working out more. So I'M partially healthier.

KING_CPB · 2019-11-04T17:03:12+00:00

Ever since there is no one but myself in the end, I'm taking care of myself in every aspects. Once you stop chasing delusional relationships, there is so much time and money just for yourself.

Dopeboy108 · 2019-11-04T17:25:00+00:00

Yeah...i've learned to cook alot of stuff myself. Basic stuff, chicken,steak,eggs,bacon,rice,veggies, very simple...but most women my age or under cannot cook at all. Every chick i've been in a relationship with was terrible so we just ate fast food all the time or ate out unless i made us some eggs or a tv dinner or whatever. I'm 28 btw. It's too bad they took gender roles out of schools. When i was going to public school and i graduated in 2010 btw, there wasn't a single automotive/wood/metal class. Just computer related things. It's too bad. I live in Ohio in America btw.

FindingKeeping · 2019-11-04T18:14:41+00:00

I lost all the taste in the food since RedPillng. Now a days I can eat absolute garbage and tastiest food ever still.feel the same

koloburnt · 2019-11-04T19:55:03+00:00

I eat less pussy, more greens and quality meat. I've cut out dairy.
