Thread: Best takeaway when bulking?

Living in the UK, girlfriend fancies a takeaway tonight. I've kept to my diet cleanly and solidly for a month and don't want to "fall off the wagon" so to speak!

What's the best takeaway for bulking? Chicken kebab? Donner kebab? Chinese?

Apologies if this is a dumb question, I'm new to lifting/dieting and I've suffered with various ED's in the past so I'm always over cautious!

Cheers

The key thing to remember here is that there are no "good" and "bad" foods. There are no ingredients sold in a 1st world country that are actively poisonous in small doses. In unreasonable doses, most things are poisonous... this includes water, sugar, salt and even oxygen.

So it's not about the choice of food for just one meal - but about the total nutrients you are getting from your diet as a whole over time.

Any targets you have for calories or particular nutrients can have a huge amount of slack built into them. What you eat only really has consequences over a pretty long timescale. You need consistently poor choices combined with lack of activity to become unhealthy.

Fast foods may have a little more fat and/or sugar added to them that some of your more regular choices but there no reason to suppose that a one-off meal cannot be absorbed into your long term plan without so much as a ripple.

Long story short: Have what you want...

Thanks so much, helpful as always
