Why not fry?

Why not fry?

Fry? If you are not making a joke as in 'get high' fry, then frying uses oil which has fat in it. Fat is bad mkay.

Fried food in itself is not always bad, its the breaded layering that often has carbs and absorbs the oil which is so fattening. Also lard and other saturated fat types of oil that fast food places use.

Some fast food places tell you what kind of oil they use and pretty much all fast food places have a caloric/carb dietary standards list available of all the food they sell if you ask for it.

If you fry something, use a super absorbent Coch Bros Brawny papertowel and pat the food in it when you are done, to absorb the oils.

If you have to fry, use low calorie non saturated fat oil in a non-stick pan.

Moderation is the key Deprivation is difficult and the sense of deprivation can cause binges so its ok to splurge here and there but go right back on the diet when you are done. Splurge meaning a cupcake, binge meaning 2-3 cupcakes lol.

Oh and I forgot something important. Go to the Gov website for dietary guides on what a person your age should eat as far as caloric/carb/protein limits per day to stay healthy. Find out what your average daily intake is by checking a days worth of food you normally eat. You will need to eat less fat and carbs than you currently do in order to lose weight.

Be careful, eat daily required vitamins.
Don't go hungry, ever.

fat really isn't that bad for you.

I eat more fat in a day than carbs/protein. Frying food is stupid though, but I abuse the shit out of butter

Your body needs fat, just not trans or sat fats lol. Mono and poly fats are just fine if you keep them under 60ish grams a day(higher id your adding weight)

Frying is not the best for sure. But you want to use saturated fats if you're going to fry. Unsaturated fat is easily oxidized from the high heat turning it into toxic death oil. This is in addition to the fact that they are already bad for you without any heat at all excepting olive oil.

As for the government's recommendations:

I easily eat 170g of fat a day (or roughly 1500 calories from fat). It's a great energy source. I also one eyed the .gov recommendation, but I feel that's a losing battle sometimes.

Ohh man, I'm so used to frying everything. What I do fry is quite healthy though, no pre-marinated shit or anything.

I just suck at making food, no way around it. Granted I try to keep the oil usage in check.

I believe I've even posted in the other thread before, but because of the size it's grown to, I'm drawn to a smaller thread like this instead. It contains a wealth of information, but that can be a lot to wade through.

I'd understand if the two were merged, though.

So what's BG's policy about making sub fourms? I think it would benefit and make things easier than wading through 1 huge single thread.

The fitness thread is just a running thread anyway, I don't see the problem. It isn't a requirement to read through the whole thing before posting.
