[Closed] iDieting

I am having a fish finger sandwich.

bacon and eggs here 🙂

Tuna, humus and grated carrots planned for lunch

You love the fish fingers don't you Jamie.
I hope you read my research into correct sauces?

Is cous-cous OK?

Isnt cus-cus same as pasta?

Yes Cous cous (or coo coo) is the same as pasta - it's grain based and therefore out
just had scrambled egg cannelini beans and salsa for lunch

2 rashers bacon (grilled, reisdual fat soaked up, rind cut off) + scrambled eggs for breakfast.

Butternut squash soup for lunch.

This is getting like a weigh****chers weigh-in night, isn't it?

Thats not enough food for a shrinking lad!

Who me? I'll eat plenty tonight.

Need to add in more (any!) bike riding....

I thought i'd found a suitable lunch from M&S, but cous cous knocks it out... pack lunches it is. I hate making pack lunch.

carrots and humus

For lunch though I'm having a cabbage salad with egg and tuna

I hate making pack lunch.

Me too, but specifically I hate making sandwiches. Making a packed lunch for iDave is a doddle. Today it was some of last night's chorizo, sausage and chickpea stew ladled into a tupperware dish last night and chucked in my bag this morning. I do it when I'm making my dinner so it's not really any more hassle.

I'm thinking I need to make something that smells worse for tomorrow DirtyG.

I wouldn't bother if I was you. Mine didn't give me the measurements I wanted, so I decided it was rubbish. 🙂

(I did some actual research and caliper tests are notoriously rubbish even if done by the most accomplished tester. If they don't take 2-3 measures for each point then they definitely don't know what they're doing!)

You love the fish fingers don't you Jamie.

Recently I have been eating like I am 8.

Fish finger sandwiches, tinned spaghetti on toast etc etc

*puts down empty packt of toffee crunch cadbury fingers*

Eh? What bike company?

oh yeah, i might need to borrow one of your grown-up looking bikes yeti, forgot to mention that 😆

waiting on another email back from them about if they want to do a static shoot modelling the clothes or a riding one

dirtyg... even if you like them, they're probably still wrong!! Did I mention about sweat/hydration analysis to you/

Can't believe I missed a modelling opportunity.

you havent missed nuffink, email them a photo of your 6pack... then photoshop mrsconsequence into the photo as i think that was the selling point, not me 😳

Done.

no don't think you did - tell me more!

I haven't done it, but you should. I reckon you are, or were drinking too much.

During or before/after exercise or in general? What sort of test is it? *wonders how i don't know about this* I'm going to ask about a VO2/lacic acid test tonight so i've got some numbers for winter training and then racing properly next year 8)

I scan read an article on it... essentially nobody needs to drink as much as you were... unless you sweat like an absolute hog... which I imagine is not true.

Pretty sure you can do a basic test yourself if you have accurate scales.

You mean the going out for a ride with no water and weighing yourself before and after test? I really suffer if i don't drink enough, not just in terms of performance exercising, but also i'm more tired/don't have my usual energy levels either.

Something like that.. think professionally you can get something done that's more comprehensive... also you are allowed to drink and take this into account. I bet you'd gain weight? How did the thing go last night?

Anyway, back to the OP... are baked beans allowed? I hate them, but have been making myself eat them.

It was good actually - very comprehensive. I get a full report (just scanned the results on her laptop) and how I compare to other female cyclists too. She even did bone size measurements too! My biceps are slightly smaller than A's - i knew i should have upped my bicep curl weights in the gym again! 😉 Going to go back for a full VO2 test before we go away 😀

i'm off idieting for good.

stomach cramps, diarrhoea, nausea, dizziness, trapped wind & 2 days off work sick with dodgy guts. not good.

LOL! What are you bicep stat's then beefcake?

I think that'll be something like food poisoning and not the iDave diet in general, what with the iDave diet just being food and that.
What had you eaten prior to this disaster?

TT that's bizarre. What did you eat?

Baked beans? Banned or not... please?

Banned, they're full of sugar

Don't they contain a lot of sugar?

Although they taste really nice, especially if you add a bit of curry powder and some worcester sauce.

I can't remember as we were talking about so much and I don't yet have my full breakdown. It was very interesting and I'll get one down again - i have at least 4kgs to lose as well now 😥

I dunno if they do contain all that much sugar actually. I've certainly bean eating them 🙂 I do drain as much of the sauce off as I can tho 🙂

I am a melted cheese and brown sauce kinda guy.

nothing unusual; omlettes, salads, houmous, bean and panchetta soup, chicken and veg etc.

my body cannot deal with the day off/ the occasional slip - which unfortunately is inevitable (for me at least)

Yeti,

most baked beans have sugar in the sauce, you can get kiddy ones with less salt and sugar.

There must be a way of having a day off without giving yourself bad stomachs, surely?

Thanks.

I had some this morning after tabata and a swim, accompanied with black pudding, bacon and egg. I'll count the sugar as the 'allowed' carbs then 🙂
