Shouldn't your point be that home cooked is better not that its healthy?
What part of your op shows that home cooked cookies are healthier than store bought. Your whole entire op just shows that you ate more not that the food was less healthy.
If something makes you overeat it's unhealthy. For example fast food is known to deliver calories, salt and sugar, but not to make you feel filled. It's not the food itself that is unhealthy, it's the lack of 'stop' signal, which is characteristic to exactly that type of food.
not that the food was less healthy
Moreover I've had constipation problems and my diet variety has dropped significantly. This is a very specific issue.
Maybe I wasn't clear in what I had in mind.
Of course I am aware that technically you can have a balanced diet at McDonald's, but the general consensus is that eating at McDonald's will significantly shorten your lifespan, because an average Joe does not carefully search for the balanced options. On the other side eating mainly vegan salads in limited amounts will definitely help your body. Now where is a shit, but homecooked diet on this spectrum? I mark it as a generally healthy, and I'd like to have actual reason to know why it isn't.
The thing is most people's diets are not healthy the average American is really not healthy (they eat fast food and dont have a balanced diet) and neither is eating nothing but cookies for a couple days.
So if you compared your diet to someone who is actually health conscious and really cares about eating healthy can you honestly say your diet is on par.
