It's a balancing act between having some rules and being able to bend them within those rules.
This may not sound healthy to some but depending on your goals you might like this:
Take any bread you like, slice up some sweet tomatoes, put it on top, add some good quality olive oil on top, salt and pepper. So simple yet so good, you may even get addicted.
The seconds, same with the bread with sesame seeds that is toasted works well and half a properly ripe avocado on top, insanely good, can add salt or whatever else you like.
For proteins, like salmon, lamp, chicken, turkey and a thai vegetable mix is a win.

Bottom line is...being moderate/average over the long term will be more beneficial than being gung ho/perfect for a short time. Both will get results, but only one way will stick. Most people don't think long haul, and that's why they stay fat.
I've watched my sister in law yo-yo for the 18 years I've known her, and she still does the same stupid shit. She also refuses to ask me for advice...the ripped guy married to her sister who has all the answers for her. All she has to do is ask.
