I was wondering if any of you guys out there date. If so, what the hell do you guys eat when you take a girl out? I mean, the typical bodybuilding diet doesn't give you a vast selection of food to choose from. You're basically limited to tuna, bread, water, chicken breasts, vegetables, oatmeal and whatnot. What's up?

Ya, I hear ya, it's pretty hard to eat on my own let alone taking out a girl to eat. I have trouble eating stuff when i go out, either my friends or my girl eat junk, like fast food and stuff, I end up eating some sort of fish(tuna mostly) and salads and stuff like that. If the girl likes, she can order what she wants, cause i know i'll just eat my chicken or fish, salads, etc.

It also depends what stage you are at in bodybuilding. During the off-season, I don't mind eating any food for dinner, just as long as it is not too fatty, and there's a lot of it.
You just have to use your head, when deciding what to eat at a restaurant, to make sure that you aren't eating too much fat.
The only time that things get difficult is during the competition phase of my training, when I go on an extremely strict diet.

Basically it comes down to doing whatever it
takes to accomplish my goal...whether that requires I eat ricecakes 6 times a day or eat
10 cans of tuna...it becomes something I choose
to do. Now this doesn't mean I can't eat when
I choose too...or eat what ever I want...cuz
normally I do...it just so happens that I've
aquired a taste for somethings others would
find repulsive.

But I do enjoy a good steak, pizza, ice cream,
or a piece of pie....their is life outside of
bodybuilding...and that's the offseason...just
as long as I don't over-indulge and control
my binge...hell...I can eat what I want, when
I want and still see that six-pack....

We all do crazy things in our lives...and this
is what I chose to do...crazy for you..but what
life is all about for me....Keep Pumping!

The thing with me is that i've been easing my way into healthy eating for the past 4 months now, when I do eat something i gave up a long time ago, now i find it tastes funny and not as good as i remember it, anyone can change their tastes it just takes a little bit of time.
