    For restaurant salads, if you want to keep the calories down, use these old tricks. Dressing on the side and dip the tines of your fork. Also, if you have someone with a purse, you can ask them to consistently carry your favorite spice mix. I use crunchy rubs, and they sprinkle well on salads and you can even go dry salad without dressing (with some wet items like tomatoes, cucumbers, etc). Leave off the croutons or grab a couple and crumble them in the palms of your hand and it adds min carbs but crunch.

    Thomas, thanks for all the education you are sharing! You helped me to learn lots of relevant information about my body. I have a question on rice cakes. Previously, you recommended it as a potential quick glucose product with post-workout protein intake (in the end of the fasting window). Do you still use it in such setup or you switched to other starches?
    Another question, if i have a prolonged fast (32-48 h) and do a resistance training in the end of the fast - should i break the fast with just protein or protein+glucose+fructose+salt protocol still applies? I am asking this as carbs are not recommended to be used as a initial food after prolonged fast.

    His justification is where the learning points are, given the different food types across the globe. Why is more important than what.
    Here is the list
    1) Cashews - he is doing Macadamia & Pecans instead
    2) Turkey Bacon - Regular bacon not too processed
    3) Rice Cakes- Siete tortillas instead
    4) Rotisserie chicken- Cold cuts like poultry breasts
    5) Margarine- Butter or Ghee
    6) Starbucks egg bites -
    7) Restaurant salad - Steamed veggies
    8) Farm raised Salmon - Sardines, Mackerel
    9) Fast food cheese - Burger Patty

    so far so good.. I don't really eat any of those except fast food cheese - when I'm doing OMAD keto sometimes an In N Out double double is an easy way to get "close enough" to what I'm after, and I've found that even eating it with the bun doesn't knock me out of ketosis overall for the day (side note, after some research and self experimentation due to discussions on bodybuilding forums I've tested eating up to 75g of carbs per day for a week straight and continued having quite measurable urine ketone levels).

    Pretty obvious and has been discussed on this channel before but worth reiterating…I avoid deep fried foods (in restaurants) like the plague. Almost always causes noticeable inflammation in my body. I realize different people may have different tolerances but I believe most restaurant practices with regards to oil selection, usage, and maintenance / change out are extremely unhealthy. If you want deep fried foods occasionally do it at home 🙏🏽☺️

    I can't really do regular bacon cause it's too salty and I swell up. Instead, I get a pork loin, and then slice it up as thin as I can. It's much better for me, and it's close enough to regular bacon in terms of taste and texture that I'm perfectly fine with replacing bacon with this instead. So, for those that can't do regular bacon, or want something to eat every day, definitely try this.

    I like this format of your videos way better the fact that you talk about something that might not be the best option but then give supporting information, but most of all give recommendations for what a substitute could be. There’s such a lack of information on what we should turn to, rather than what we should stay away from living in fear of everything being bad, just creates confusion, and not that I myself want, or need to be told what to eat I feel like a lot of people benefit from having people’s input and that’s why they come to these videos for peoples opinions.

    I stopped eating at resturants and fast food places for about 3 years now, and its the best decision I ever made. I'm 47...I got into fitness 5 years ago. I feel the best I ever felt in my life physically. I love cooking which I hated before. I just don't eat bacon at all. I make my own egg bites, donuts, I do still buy store brought pies. I do all my grocery shopping at sprouts. You can get a whole pie with just 300 calories (no sugar added) for the whole thing. Wild caught salmon I get a frozen pack for like 29 bucks at Sprouts, but I'm not that big on Seaford except for scallops which I buy quite often. I buy nothing but lean cuts of chicken and ground beef...sometimes I get ground turkey and chicken as well...only grass feed and pasture raised....99% lean or 93%. Bison meat is the best but it's quite expensive... otherwise I would switch to bison meat. I cut out processed foods but I pretty much eat the same foods. I just get cleaner food sources and ingredients, and incorporate more balanced meals. I weigh my food and count calories and macros so I don't over eat. I use an app to calculate my BMI and then you type in the product of the ingredients for your meals or you can scan the UPC code and the nutrition is quite accurate to the label. The pain in the ass part is naming all of the ingredients...including bread and condiments. I urge people to give up fast food places and most resturants...for one their dirty and two they buy nothing but processed ingredients cause the cost is cheaper.

    I didn’t understand why you’d substitute deli meat for the egg bites. I could understand if you said you’d make your own, or just have eggs and bacon. But just deli meat? No hate on deli meat.

I have no idea why the rega require it be calked dyed (when it isn’t dyed). It is astaxanthin in the diet. Same way they keep help flamingos in zoos by supplementing it on their diet.

    It’s okay to eat salads in restaurants. I normally order a mixed greens salad, and sometimes with grilled chicken, and I usually ask for the dressing on the side. And, if the salad also came with cheese, I would ask to also place that on the side as well. This way, you can control how much to add in your salad, or decide to completely omit them.

      The chicken and the cheeses are the only healthy items in a salad…saturated fats are essential and seed oils are processed to death and are absolutely bad for health…
