What's the healthiest diet?

Trying to eat healthy. What kind of diet is the healthiest? I know Mediterranean diet is good and keto is good. I thought about going Vegan but I don't know how well that would work out.

Diets are not healthy. If you want to lose weight, then just eat what you know is healthy, and the parts that have a lot of fat or carbs, eat less :) Small meals is key.

@MartinTheFirst When I said diet, I just meant the types of food I'd eat. Yes you're right. I'm trying to restrict my carb intake for sure.

@justicexoxoxo fat is even worse than carbs

@MartinTheFirst But the foods that are low in carbs tend to be high in polyunsaturated fats and cholesterol?

@lilteacup Yeah that's why I'm saying do not do diets lol. Eat like you regularly do (unless you only dine at mcdonalds) but eat less of it. Your body will survive and you will lose weight and won't have to change what you eat.

@MartinTheFirst You're right but I did hear depriving yourself of calories is not a good way to lose weight. Apparently if you lose more then 1-2 lbs a week it's not healthy for your body. The main thing is exercise. I'm not too focused on losing weight but trying to eat foods that I know have a lot of benefits and nutrients. A person could easily lose weight off Mcdonalds if the caloric intake was less then normal but it'd still be unhealthy.

@justicexoxoxo Yes.. I've never said anything about losing all calories wtf... read what I said again.

@MartinTheFirst Whoa calm down. I wasn't criticising anything you were saying. I was just adding to the things you said. I was creating dialogue not debating. No need to get defensive.

lilteacup

@MartinTheFirst I understand what you are saying. Thank you 🙂

@justicexoxoxo I am calm lol. You two are not reading what I'm saying though so you're not making any sense.

MartinTheFirst · 26-30, M

@lilteacup thas great 👍

justicexoxoxo · 26-30, M

@MartinTheFirst I did read what you said. I'm not saying anything you said was wrong. I was just adding to the things you said.

which you said suggests that you thought I said that you should not eat anything with calories.

justicexoxoxo · 26-30, M

No. Maybe me saying "but" made you think I was disagreeing. I was informing you. In any case, nobody is wrong here. No worries.

MartinTheFirst · 26-30, M

@justicexoxoxo Yeah the [i]but[/i] is what made it into a disagreeing kind of message.

justicexoxoxo · 26-30, M

Well I apologize if you took it the way, wasn't my intention. Your advice is well noted.

MartinTheFirst · 26-30, M

alright :P
