No.

I don't eat as healthy as I should. I make good money and don't have a lot of time so I eat out too much. I try to order salads pretty often, but fried food is soooo tempting.
For a while there I ate nothing but salads, oatmeal, and lean protein. Snacked on nuts. Lost about 20 pounds. Cut my blood cholesterol in half, lowered my blood pressure by 20 points diastolic and systolic. I was walking 30 minutes a day back then too.
I fell off the wagon after eating some papa john's pizza around the 4th of july about 3 years ago now. Went from 165 back to about 180... I still eat more salad than I used to and never really went back to red meat. But carbs have been my downfall. I love to bake and I love sandwiches.
Now that it is bathing suit season I have been trying to get back on the healthy wagon, but it's been difficult. I have been eating small portion sizes of beans and rice and salads and wheat bran cereal. There have been too many work successes lately though that have meant celebrating at the bar though...
And now it's sno-ball season... ugh.

I try to eat as fresh and unprocessed as possible and when I can. Also, the only beverage I drink on a daily basis besides water is green tea. Feels good mang.

After years of exhaustively reading all the research on the subject, I have come to the conclusion that there is no such thing as 'healthy eating', or 'eating healthy', or any other such concept of eating for your health.
It's like a chimera or an honest politician. It simply does not exist. Everyone talks about it, but no one has ever seen it.

Like anything else you have to approach the subject of healthy eating with common sense.
Are most things best in moderation? Yes.
Are fresh unprocessed foods the better alternative to processed foods usually laden with fillers? Yes.
Should you aim to keep your caloric intake low while maximizing nutrient consumption? Yes.
What food provide the most nutrients with the lowest amounts of calories - fresh fruits and vegetables.
It's pretty simple desu.

This is a very american thing to say. Granted, there's no such thing as a one true diet that's healthy for every single person, but that doesn't mean that aren't general things you can consider healthy and unhealthy based on the quantities and frequency you consume them.

Also look at the diets of cultures around the world who are the healthiest in terms of the lowest rates in obesity, cancer, heart disease, etc.

Game meat, vegetables, fruits, mushrooms, honey, eggs, filtered water (removing fluoride and heavy metals from the tap water). I try and avoid eating out as much as possible.
Also iodine supplement (most people are deficient), apple cider vinegar and weightlifting and cardio to keep the body strong and healthy.
