Oats
Broccoli
Yam
Green Beans
Brown Rice
Carrots
Apples
Whey
Chicken Breast
Romaine Lettuce w/ Salad Dressing
I do not eat a single thing that is not listed above, so far I've seen remarkable changes in my mood, thinking, concentration, and body fat percentage. I lost over 100lbs from changing my diet so drastically.

I gave up everything a fat kid would enjoy. The list of things that I gave up would be so long, it is much easier to list what I do eat.
Oats
Broccoli
Yam
Green Beans
Brown Rice
Carrots
Apples
Whey
Chicken Breast
Romaine Lettuce w/ Salad Dressing

What kind of fat do you get from this ?
Not much apparently, do you supplement ?

- Fast food of any kind (pizza, hamburgers, french fries, etc.)
- Snacks, potato chips, candy, crisps, chocolate
- Ice cream
- Soft drinks, soda
- White bread
- Sugar (I avoid it as much as I can, although I can't force my parents to buy exactly the kind of food I want)
- High-fat stuff in general
- Cakes, pastries, tarts, cookies, biscuits
I never drink alcohol to begin with (because of health issues, plus I don't want to lose control of myself as I see drunk people doing. I have made it my vow to never, ever get drunk, and unless someone literally forces alcohol down my throat, I won't drink it.)
I still eat meat, though I plan on stopping or severely cutting back on it as soon as I get my own apartment (it's not easy convincing the rest of the family to also eat veggie food). Milk, cheese and other such products are also things I have not quit, for the same reasons.
On the other hand, I have introduced this into my diet, among other things:
- Whole-grain bread and cereals
- Green tea
- Supplements (vitamins, omega-3/fishliver oil)
- More fruit and vegetables
I would like to add resveratrol to my supplements, but as of now, I can't really afford it. Also, I plan on exercising a lot more in the very near future, as I don't do that a lot now.

I get 49 grams of fat per day, which is 18% of my total calorie intake. I have to stay on a low-fat diet, I had my gallbladder taken out last year (because of my massive weight loss), and ever since then I am incapable of eating more than 10 grams of fat in one sitting or I get incredibly sick for 1-2 days.
You poor man.
I second this sentiment.
I wish I could eat as diverse as everyone else. But for some strange reason I became lactose intolerant, allergic to eggs and peanuts when I was 15. And no matter the amount of digestive enzymes, probiotics, detox or cleanses I do, nothing can restore my stomach to former glory. I was forced into this diet over time by health issues and other pressures. Oh well, I'm sure it for the best. I mean, atleast I can no longer eat foods that advance the aging process in a significant manner.

My allergies have gotten a lot fucking worse over the years too. I feel for you man ... especially when you take into account the negative effects constant inflammation has on other systems downstream.

Btw ... you could stand some more variety, allergies or not.

I have tried multiple beans, which for some strange reason never are properly digested. I used to be a big time lentils fan, ate it quite often. But now, I might as well shoot myself in the foot. Though when I do go a little wild and eat a tad bit off my target calories, I go for the quinoa. A lot of vegetables and fruits set something off with me, be it heart burn or headaches. I am however becoming less sensitive to these effects as time goes on. I've only been on a 'clean' diet for 2 years now, so it may take some time to readjust.
My nametag is no bollywood reference, lol. I had to google "the big b bollywood" to find out what you were talking about. [lol]

Sorry for you [huh]
A good reason to try to stick to slow weight loss and not eliminate fat from diet (necessary to help gallbladder contraction and bile excretion).
