    Question What type of diet do you eat

    I try to get in 0.8 grams of protein per pound of body weight (The scientific research show this to be the optimal amount of protein for muscle synthesis)

    Then I try and split the rest of my macros between fats and carbs

    I recently noticed my diet had been lacking fats, which are importance for cholesterol and hormone function

    I also eat in the mold of Intermittent fasting, which is essentially changing your
    eating frequency, typically into a 16/8 split which implies, not eating for 16 hours, and eating all your caloric and macro needs in an 8 hour window.

    I've been recently doing this, as it makes eating more enjoyable, and also it makes eating less easier for some... I've often fell asleep eating because I've left the eating too late.. But over doing this for awhile, I've become a more efficient eater and can consume big meals a lot faster. I also do this style of eating because there is a lot of scientific studies done in relation to the topic, that shows endocrine/hormonal and cognitive/neural benefits to eating with this style of frequency.

    I don't really focus on so much as what I eat, more so how much I eat. I'm extremely macro oriented in a fitness sense... But I do understand that there is more to health than just numbers... Somewhere down the line I might give a vegan/plant based diet a try because there seems to be overwhelming scientific evidence that it is extremely good for preventing a lot of disease and illness... Great for arterial health and the prevention and decline of atherosclerosis..

    Been cutting back on sugar lately. As in, buying less sugary cereals, and not buying sugary snacks with my own impulse or money, though I will gladly take a cake or snack if in some social event where it's being served. Years ago I cut back on sodium intake and the habits and awareness are still with me. Doing these things because I learn they contribute to heart disease, diabetes, etc. One small thing at a time, I'm looking for habitual changes when I approach my diet not extreme disciplines or regiments that are difficult to follow. I see women do that kind of diet all the time and they always fail so I go the slow and steady wins the race approach.

    Cupcakes, cookies, ice cream, chips, pizza, nachos, poptarts, etc.

    Salad on occasion. Steak everyday. 5000 calories a day, at least. Buttermilk pancakes with chocolate chips/syrup + chocolate milk and a banana is a go-to snack for me when I'm bored.

    Ditched the paleo diet months ago. My dick is huge right now because my blood flow is back. I didn't have great blood flow without carbs. My dick is noticeably bigger and harder now.
