Delicious diet foods: are there any?

So I just had "light n fit" yogurt for breakfast thinking to start my day off healthy, but it was so unsatisfying that I decided to eat some cheez-its too.

Are there healthy dieting-type foods that leave you feeling like you've had a tasty treat?

is not as tasty as

I eat tons and tons of oatmeal

Torakamikaze on Jun 06 '08 at 11:25am

ZOMG 3 lbs of Cheezits?

That is heaven in a box

Tonteau on Jun 06 '08 at 11:25am

Dancing is the best diet food there is.

tracerbullet on Jun 06 '08 at 11:25am

diet foods are silly. all you need is self control! you can do it!

EricDiaz on Jun 06 '08 at 11:26am

mmmmm, cheezy

jenraskopf on Jun 06 '08 at 11:27am

I know. 3 lbs of tempting fatty awesomeness.

Brian.
I have no self control. Anyone who was around for the greater part of my thesis project knows that.

Tonteau on Jun 06 '08 at 11:28am

Hang on, why are you on a diet?

Robsoul on Jun 06 '08 at 11:28am

I just had a delicious diet food with my tea, apple fritter, deep fried in butter mmmmmm

I think good veggies and fruits are a worthy diet choice, although Phil warned me of some tomato death disease sweeping the nation

spacesick 2 on Jun 06 '08 at 11:31am

I ate a pound of fresh crisp baby carrots last night

on accident

then I opened a bag of Cool(er) Ranch Dortios

on accident

jenraskopf on Jun 06 '08 at 11:31am

I'm not on a diet.
Not really.

I'm just trying to make healthier decisions so I don't have to go on a diet.

Tomato death disease? But I love tomatoes!

When I went vegetarian I lost a bunch of weight without meaning to.

jenraskopf on Jun 06 '08 at 11:48am

But I can't go vegetarian.

I get cranky when I don't get enough protein.

jenraskopf on Jun 06 '08 at 11:48am

Also, I really like devouring the flesh of animals.

spacesick 2 on Jun 06 '08 at 11:49am

hehe. FUCK YEAH!

skeev on Jun 06 '08 at 11:49am

That pound of baby carrots was in no way healthy. It's almost all sugar.

spacesick 2 on Jun 06 '08 at 11:50am

oh really? please, tell me more.

bsweber on Jun 06 '08 at 11:51am

oh hi jen!

jenraskopf on Jun 06 '08 at 11:52am

Oh! Hi!!!

V1ctorya on Jun 06 '08 at 11:53am

The benefits of Kafir are being preached to me.

r.o.b.o.t.i.c.octopus on Jun 06 '08 at 11:55am

just don't eat anything with aspartame in it...it's evil evil crap that donald rumsfield (as president of the company searle) got put in our sodas and sugar free food.

just eat healthily, who cares about "diet" on the package...it's not gonna help anyone anymore than a placebo does.

bsweber on Jun 06 '08 at 11:55am

i've been eating a lot of oranges

jenraskopf on Jun 06 '08 at 12:03pm

oranges are delicious.

V1ctorya on Jun 06 '08 at 12:08pm

pyr4lis on Jun 06 '08 at 12:09pm

my favorite thing is a lighter version of potatoes and egges. I usually get those frozen hashbrown potatoes that are 70 calories a serving... then I use 1 large whole egg for 80 calories and 1 eggwhite. I fry the potatoes in a pan using that practically no calorie olive oil spray can stuff... once the potatoes are brown add the eggs and scramble them up :P a yummy filling normal food for only 150 calories. I love it with tobasco and ketchup :)

littlem on Jun 06 '08 at 12:09pm

i eat too much junky food. i have no good advice

yeah, I love my tomatoes too

jenraskopf on Jun 06 '08 at 12:16pm

On a semi-related note-

does soy really fuck with a man's testosterone levels?

blo_in_the_dark on Jun 06 '08 at 12:17pm

Bananas. Corn Dogs. Cucumbers. Pickles. Carrots. Sausage.

See where I'm going with this?

V1ctorya on Jun 06 '08 at 12:18pm

Alls I know about soy is that it leaches calcium, so always take it/eat it/drink it with something high in calcium.

And teas block the absorption of iron. And other stuff. It was a long time ago when I actually dealt on the patient end of things.

Robsoul on Jun 06 '08 at 12:20pm

"does soy really fuck with a man's testosterone levels?"

waddya mean? I actually drink silk vanilla soy milk everyday for tea and cereal. I don't feel the urge to fight people although I do still flip ppl off on the highway. Or are you talking about the opposite effect, I could see that... maybe... not

Robsoul on Jun 06 '08 at 12:21pm

yeah, i'm pretty sure that's bullshit

ecstasy and steriods on the other hand

littlem on Jun 06 '08 at 12:22pm

soy effs with my testes

Robsoul on Jun 06 '08 at 12:22pm

"And teas block the absorption of iron"

what? jezuz, is nothing sacred... my beloved tea

Malcolm Man on Jun 06 '08 at 12:22pm

Delicious diet foods!!!

jenraskopf on Jun 06 '08 at 12:23pm

I had an ex who was a body builder and was very cautious about soy protein.

But he was also a complete prat, so it's hard to say.

Robsoul on Jun 06 '08 at 12:24pm

found this, phew

Q:Does tea block the absorbtion of iron into the body?

A: Although sometimes there may be a relationship between tea drinking and reduced absorption of iron, research indicates that individuals consuming a typical Western diet are not likely to be at risk for iron deficiency anemia. Tea has no effect on iron absorption when consumed between meals, but may decrease the uptake of iron from plant foods when consumed with a meal. To offset tea's minor effect on iron absorption, foods rich in vitamin C, such as orange juice, strawberries, or tomatoes can be eaten in the same meal. Adding lemon to tea works as well.

well yeah, those dudes are weird to begin with. I'm not comfortable hanging out with anyone who flexes and stares into the mirror for hours on end

Malcolm Man on Jun 06 '08 at 12:25pm

I drink soy milk every morning. I have had no adverse side effects...except for my new boob.

skeev on Jun 06 '08 at 12:28pm

The way I hear it, can't say it's 100% right, but carrots are high in carbs and sugar and especially eating them at night when you won't be very active you'll just be making that all turn to fat.

skeev on Jun 06 '08 at 12:30pm

carrots are the second highest sugar containing vegetable behind beets.

skeev on Jun 06 '08 at 12:30pm

Soy milk rocks, on my bran flakes it rocks more.

Rambunkcious on Jun 06 '08 at 12:32pm

i like the special k meal bars the peanut butter and chocolate ones are the best

iridiscente on Jun 06 '08 at 12:33pm

i lost a lot of weight by being careful about combining the food
ate tons of veggies with proteins
looks like we're all impulsive when it comes to snacks and all that crap, but as long as it's not an habit...

xiv on Jun 06 '08 at 12:33pm

Tuna fish on Wheat Thins is delicious. Especially if theres green onion mixed in with the tuna.
Not sure how healthy that is though...

EricDiaz on Jun 06 '08 at 12:42pm

what about sweet potatoes?

V1ctorya on Jun 06 '08 at 12:46pm

I like the mint pria bars as a snack. only 110 calorie snack that doesn't make me just want to go and buy 20 regular fat snacks to then eat.

rob - I worked with cancer patients. They weren't allowed tea during treatments :) So with a normal diet prolly works out fine.

Rice milk is my preferred non-dairy milk. Rice Dream enriched original is so friggen yum. Love the carob one too.

avalanche_lily on Jun 06 '08 at 12:47pm

Carrots also have fiber and vitamins and nutrients that junk food does not have.

skeev on Jun 06 '08 at 12:52pm

^^^True but did you read my post above that one as to why carrots aren't the best choice?

There are better, healthy choices.

jenraskopf on Jun 06 '08 at 1:03pm

I just had tuna for lunch!

blo_in_the_dark on Jun 06 '08 at 1:19pm

tuna makes me feel sick.
