If it is homemade burger with good meat and buns then alright. If it is fastfood mcdonalds burgerking type shit then it is a problem.

I try to eat as little carbs as possible. Like you said, pasta and chicken is not good especially while cutting. Chicken should be avoided in general cause it is full of GMO and growth drugs that are not healthy at all. Some chickens you can buy smell like pharmacy.

I have found that small meals are not helping and sometimes slowing down the weigt loss. Last year I lost some weight in two weeks without any small meals. This year trying to do the same but with small meals I have been unable to do so for the past month.
