Would you be turned off by a guy who ate healthier than you did?

Friends have told me stories about being turned off by guys who eat super-healthy—egg whites for breakfast, salads without dressing for lunch, salmon for dinner—so I thought I'd raise the issue here. I feel a bit torn on the subject. You know from this post that I'd love for my boyfriend to be a bit healthier (how's Day 1 of those resolutions going, hun?!), but I'd also feel weird if he didn't chow down on a burger and fries from time to time or if we never shared a pizza together. (Now that would be a sad day.)

I have no idea who o'boy is, but I thought this pic was kinda funny. Anyway, I do think a guy with an appetite for wings and nachos is part of his masculinity, and I'm allll about manly men, but one thing we should consider is that not all guys are the same. Yes, many can hit the gym a few times a week and still be able to get away with eating whatever they want (damn metabolisms!), but not everyone can. On the flip side guys, don't judge a girl when she orders a salad at dinner!

They are many different arguments you could make on this subject, so I'm gonna leave it with you. Would you be turned off by a guy who ate super-healthy? Even healthier than you? And guys, what's a big no-no for you regarding girls' eating habits??
