At the end of the day; if you can eat lean meat, veggies, a little berries or fruit, some nuts and seeds, and mostly water 80% of the time you be well on your way to optimum health and nutrition. Remember though if you eat 5 times a day that means there is 35 meals in a week. That means 28 meals must be spot on to get a "B." That's 7 meals through the week. That "one-bite-wont-hurt" mentality is OVER. You get 7 "bites" a week. Spend them well.

No one is saying you have to be perfect. Just realize the cost of what you do. If you are ok with it, then fine, if not, then change something. Simple is NOT easy, but it's still that simple. If something is non-negotiable, that's fine, just realize that your "grade" is going to be showing on your abs. A students get to see their abs, B students kind of, C students, not so much. You get the idea. It's up to you. Attention and time is all it takes. You get to choose where you spend those.
