You will always be what you always eat ! Can't out train a bad diet

That 1 hour you spend in the gym is important, but the way you spend the other 23 matter more. The way you live and eat daily will either help or hinder your goals of having a healthy sexy body. A lot of people who want to be in shape eat snacks all day every day, and sneak into fast food restaurants not feeling guilty because "it's just one snack/meal, I'll work it off in the gym later" But let me tell you something, that Big Mac you had is 550 calories, and the medium fries is 330. Already that is 880 calories and who are you fooling ? I know you had a drink and it wasn't water, but I'm not even going to add that in yet. You will either go to the gym or hope that it magically disappears and doesn't affect your health. Either way, it's still 800 more calories than you had, not to mention the trans fat, cholesterol, etc. Even if you do go to the gym with intentions to work it off, you will have to run on the treadmill like a maniac for a whole hour on speed 7 just to burn off all of those bad calories. Yikes ! I'm pretty sure no one wants to do that or will even attempt ! And why should you have to go to the gym to burn off extra calories ? You are there to chip away at the present you, not make a game out of it by barely burning off your 1000 calorie lunch every day. By eating unhealthy snacks and food all day every day, you are not making the most of your work out and seriously wasting your time. You will NEVER see results no matter how hard you feel like you are working, and any muscle you are building WILL be hidden under your fat. Then you will complain that you never see results and get discouraged and stop trying. Progress gives us hope so stop hindering your progress ! A bad diet can make everything go terribly wrong ! So throw out that bj's jumbo box of assorted donuts now or be satisfied with looking like a donuts forever !

And you don't have to try those ridiculous diets and you definitely shouldn't starve yourself, that won't work. You will be sending your body into SOS mode and it will keep all the fat in your body because it thinks it needs it to survive. Just simply start today with your healthy eating regimen. A healthy eating regimen is simply eat healthy foods in smaller portions 4 to 5 times a day. Drink half a gallon to a gallon of water daily. AVOID JUNK AND FAST FOOD every day all day ! There are no one day cheats what so ever ! Stop carrying 10 unhealthy snacks in your bag everyday, and don't waste a dollar here and a dollar there on honey buns and pound cakes from the corner store. Avoid sugar, white flour, trans and saturated fat. And remember to add fiber to your diet. Fiber is a natural fat burner.

In addition to eating the right foods, over eating is also qualified as a bad diet. A lot of people don't realize that portion control is a big deal, especially when you are looking for specific results. If you eat too much, your body may not have enough time to metabolize it right away so it will get stored. When nutrients get stored in the body, especially carbs and protein, it gets turned to fat which is the last thing we want.

Eating healthy gives you more energy, stamina, better sleep, and productive workouts, etc. You are what you eat, and now that you have been educated, you make the call :)
