Cravings
-
I did a decent run on the treadmill last evening, which was for about 45 minutes or so and I was drenched in sweat at the end. I had more energy left in me, but I had to go home as the gym was closing down early for Gandhi Jayanti (a public holiday here). Today, I've this uncontrollable cravings to eat not-so-healthy things. Eaten a samich, which I think is OK. But about 25 cashew nuts have been consumed too, which calls for a round on the cycle and a deadlift session tomorrow. And the dinner is yet to come, which is probably ghee rotis and some dal and/or curry with raita. Gone are the days when I was a "bodybuilder dude". Presently I am making it a point to go to the gym only out of guilt to compensate for my crazy eating habits. I'm glad at least I've that much spirit left in me, because otherwise I think I'll become one of those really fat guys who you pray shouldn't take the seat next to you on a plane. Ah, I can smell parathas being cooked. :laugh: [edit] On a serious note, I've started to make a conscious effort to tone up what's left of the muscles. :) [/edit] What are your eating and working-out habits/patterns like?

Now I'm really hungry. :((
Veni, vidi, abiit domum
I wish I could send you some, but I'm afraid you're just going to remain hungry until you make or get yourself something to eat. :)

Ok, this is Anecdotal but it is really easy to believe: After intense Cardio (45 minutes or more, and intense, not 60 minutes on a treadmill walking at 3mph talking with someone about how you are going to get your nails done later) the body crave sweets. Runners seem to get a crazy sweet tooth and unfortunately, it negates all of the gains of the run (losses : ) ). Congrats on the run, I haven't run in a few months, ever since I got the road bike, I really need to get an hour in though to prove I still can.

Breakfast, snacks, lunch, snacks, dinner, snacks. It is a very stable pattern.

OK, that's quite weird unless it truly is like that where you live. I welcome you to my home for sampling what we eat. I'm pretty confident that your opinions will change unless you've got some kind of phobia towards food itself. My mother makes authentic South Indian food which I usually end up binge eating, my wife makes some of the best curries and subjis of North and Western India, and I can cook some very tasty rice dishes and fast food (just ask in the GIT forum). :)

My daily workout is running for the bus - which I usually miss, then standing still for a long time waiting for the next bus - which is always "Out of Service" (I have quite a collection of photos taken with my phone as they go by), then running to the office when I get off the bus because I am late for a meeting - which has usually been cancelled (75%-80% of meetings seem to get cancelled at the last minute due to some crisis), then running to Burger King to get a breakfast sandwich before they stop serving them - I miss breakfast at home most days because I try and leave early enough to not miss my first "Out of Service" bus of the day. A similar pattern but with walking replacing the running and a stop at the all-you-can-eat buffet, occurs on the way home in the evening. I'm not fat, just big-boned.

May be you're just eating badly prepared food. And the taste is just not one thing. Food can be prepared with so many ingredients and in so many flavours that it's impossible to dislike all of it.

We stopped frying food in ghee when I was a kid because of the risk of clogged arteries. /ravi

Parathas are not "fried", they're similar to chapatti and a few drops of ghee will be sprinkled on it after placing it in the griddle for cooking. Also, a few drops of ghee every day won't clog the arteries. In fact, ghee has less cholesterol than butter. What kind of fat do you use?
