you’ve just described my entire diet – I rarely bother with actual meals and mostly just eat something when I’m hungry :o) (goes off for some natchos)
Uh-huh, I was in that habit for about 3 years. There is cake and biscuits in the office kitchen pretty much everyday, which I was powerless to resist and I do plenty of exercise, so a drop of cake can’t hurt can it?
Got to the point where I was having cake for breakfast, cake after a good sized lunch, mid afternoon snooze, then home for a vat of pasta and cheese, maybe an ale and some pudding of some sort.
Very shortly I was 88kg and feeling slow and shite. I knew I’d never stick to a ‘diet’ and I know that I have to eat well occassionally when my body is screaming at me to eat. Besides ale is far too nice to go without entirely.
So now I just eat my lunch (sarnie, ONE slice of cake and fruit or some leftovers) and have a good square meal at home in the evening, trying to forgo pudding, but I’ll have some if I feel I need it. Enjoy and ale or two every now and again. Pretty easy to stick to and means I can still eat pretty much whatever I want. Apart from the cake for breakfast, that was bad.
The inner tubby is growing strong again though. I think after the etape in July I’ll revert to something akin to Vanessa Fletz very shortly after …
