The thread was more along the lines of a frustration that we just don't know who to trust when it comes to nutrition. Doctors? Registered dieticians? Personal Trainer? Books on nutrition? Those haven't worked for me as I keep getting different messages. Like I said, I've been given enough meal plans over the years to wallpaper a room. And you are right, the personal trainer one didn't work for me.. the meat one didn't fit and there was no way that I could maintain eating the vegan diet. Maybe eating these ribs are not healthy (they may be processed, but at least all the ingredients are readable) and I am more than willing to change. Just that moving to a high carb diet like what I was on before scares me due to the weight gain and fat % from last time.
You are not willing to change. You obviously value only eating certain foods over the foods that people you ask for help suggest to you. Or if you do attempt to change you believe that you cannot make that change long term.

You state this thread is about frustration at not knowing who to trust but the answer is pretty simple. You listen to the people whose advice works for other people in similar situations to yourself and you try it out yourself. If it doesn't work for you, discard their opinion. If it does work, stick with it.
