Woah Woah Woah, lets slow down abit here guys and look at this argument
properly.
Quoted message said:What you eat does not have a particular effect, as long as you burn it
off. That guy that ate McDonalds every meal obviously didn't exercise.
A similar test was done, but with exercise, and all went swell.
Where you got this idea I don't know. Just because one burns calories
and does not eat to excess does not mean one is "healthy". True, by
exercising you won't look chubby and you probably won't feel as bad but
body still needs energy and it needs real energy not processed garbage.
Your liver will still be affected, you will still constrict your
arteries and in turn your heart will have to work harder just to walk
up a flight of stairs, besides how any of you could eat junk food or
even low in nutrition food and have the energy to exercise beats me.
Quoted message said:my breakfasts usually consist of some sort of healthy breakfast cereal
(shredded wheat, raisin bran, etc) or some carbs (bagels, etc.).
Watch out for these things, they are hidden dangers, many contain high
levels of salt or sugar, but I think you're safe with shredded wheat.
Bagels aren't so good for you but everything in moderation.
Quoted message said:If you start to gain weight (if your done growing, which you may be) you
need to cut back your calories and/or ride more to burn them off
Paying attention to weight is not always sensible or accurate. BMI is
an average. If you are gaining muscle you will appear heavier but will
be healthier.
Balance is the key as some of you have mentioned. Have a balance of
protein, chicken, pork, fish or if you are vegetarian this can come
from nuts, oats and other sources. Get your carbs in brown rice and
pasta, brown bread etc. and your 5 fruit and veg a day. You know what's
right and get your exercise in as all of you seem to know already.
Terry, the rules for most are, if you're good 75% of the time you can
bebad 25%, so don't worry about your cake. :p

there's no fear, (tech stuff), it doesn't really matter, It's just what
the body does.
