Muscles are built in the kitchen. What’s your go to diet or meal plan for staying healthy. It’s tough for me to stay “healthy” when there’s so many good food options outside.

Turkey meatballs, cod with a miso marinade, lime shrimp, chicken breast and thigh Al pastor, and a salmon bake. I’ll rotate these proteins weekly and make enough to cover lunch/dinner for sun-Thurs. then I’ll make fresh sides/veggies daily. For carbs I do either brown rice or some kind of pasta with veg noodles mixed in.

Breakfast I like to keep it simple: eggs and veggies/potatoes and fruit or steel cut oats, protein powder, fruit. Snacks typically fruit and Greek yogurt.

Fri/Saturdays I’ll do take out but I still avoid deep fried or greasy foods

For me, anything goes as long as it's within my calorie limit. It's more about how much you eat than what you eat. I usually stick to healthy options like turkey and veggies though.

Yeah definitely. I tried to watch my calories but I feel like it became unhealthy in a sense. For instance if I know I just ate a 1k calorie breakfast sandwich early AM. I wouldn’t eat again until late night

It’s the good stuff and the easy stuff out there that get me derailed too. I really try to keep it simple when getting myself into a healthy diet again. Add a lot of veggies in and protein. Also fiber! One thing that is overlooked a lot I feel. Make room for treats as well, depriving myself doesn’t end well.

Yeah one point in my life I went straight nothing remotely unhealthy deprivation and that lasted a good 3 weeks

5 oz flap steak, 2 cups broccoli, 2 cups frozen mangos. Cheap and easy.

You are right about that. I can't tell you how many friends I have had that want to lose weight and I try to tell them the reason they are not losing weight is because they are not eating right. You cannot out work a bad diet.

I’ve suffered from workaholism for a long time. Thanks to a lot of great self help books and therapy, I’m no longer putting work on a pedestal and I’m spending a lot more time on self care and my marriage. But, unfortunately, I am now getting withdrawals, because my body is used to the daily adrenaline of throwing myself into work. It’s this terrible feeling of like anguish/unease in my gut, but I don’t have anything I’m worried about- it’s like my body wants to find something to worry about.

Hi all,

Do firms match offers from other Big 4s for campus hires? I’ve received a campus offer from both
KPMG and EY. I’m more interested in the EY offer, but they are paying 3k less than KPMG.

Would it be a bad move to let them know about the other offer and try negotiating? I feel it wont make a difference in the long run, but at the same time I don’t want to leave any money on the table if possible.

Thanks!
