No I would NOT say he's obsessing. He needs to plan ahead. Obsessing over it would to skip eating instead of going for the next best thing like beef jerkey. Deciding to eat a lollypop or a bisquit instead of a real meal is just ridiculous. To think that this is obsessing kind of shows me that your diet is probably not that great. Seriously, eating a freaking lollypop? I mean come on now. Have your cheat meals but don't use it as an excuse to eat crap. Plan ahead.

I wasnt looking for an excuse to eat sweets. Jerky is a path I havnt gone down. Light and practicle, have to carry some in my wallet or something.

And the "be prepared" responses are a little off topic. Not saying it isn't GREAT advice, but The question at hand is very direct and to the point..."is something better than nothing" And IMO it is....for the most part. I would much rather stop at McDonalds and get a grilled chicken sandwich as opposed to goin 6-7 hours without food. That's just me, perhaps my logic is flawed. |

Its not that im lazy but rather having such a good time with the people im with i dont wont to be rude and leave them to go get food. Or when they offer me something like sugar or chips it would be ruder to say no thanks and whip out some jerky than just miss the meal. Im talking my meal between lunch and dinner or after dinner when im staying out late. I always have said not thanks, it just got me thinking.

It's your body, not theirs and if you have goals then you have to understand that socially most people WILL NOT understand what the big deal is. Just don't make it a big deal and politely say no thank you. Don't go into a big long tangent about your weightlifting and food choices yadda yadda yadda
