Body Building Vegan style!

(1) Carrots make you turn orange, and (2), dunno, not on or eating plans, so have not been on the radar with us or out nutritionist! I'll have to ask if I remember on Monday.<br />
<br />
(1) revisited. When we are leaning down carrots are off the menu, as they are quite carb filled (when you are meant to be eating zero carbs). But to be fair, for our first comp when we were super rookies Ness DID in fact turn orange from eating too many carrots, but she still was mean and lean and ripped to pieces! But we're not meant to eat them then, but I don't know how much effect they really have! They taste nice though...<br />

JK - go to [url]www.gofigure.co.nz[/url] - there's a bloke looking to bulk up, eating 8000 calories a day!! I think I am on about 1700 a day at the moment in my maintenance-build stage. He's a big bugger though (tall). Lots of good eating stuff etc on that site too. -
Thanks Bart. I assume you'd have to eat a farking lot of carrots to get fat off them. <br />
<br />
I've never been a big veggie eater and still hate them but they are unfortunately essential. One thing I have to say is pretty amazing is that I havent been sick for almost a year (touch wood). Strangely enough I was often sick when I ate potato chips and ice cream for breakfast. What the fark was I thinking! -
RS - same here - since we started this BB lark, and eating healthy and clean (mainly) I have not been sick, and I think Ness has had a fluey thing once. But other than that, any more healthy and it would be sickening!!<br />
<br />
and mmmm, potato chips with ice cream dip, nothing wring with that, once every 41 years! -
Dropped another 2.5 cms!

At this rate, I advise you to stear clear of English rugby players, they may start tossing you around. -
Had something similar to this vegan diet when eating lunch at the wife's workplace yesterday. They didnt have any meat left but had heaps of chick peas and lima beans so I piled them on with veggies etc. Was ok but farked if I could eat that every single day. <br />
<br />
BTW Bart what is the go with chick peas and lima beans? Full of protein but I assume there must be a downside. -
here's a typical post hiking meal I fix for myself. Well, this one was for two people, and rice was on the side. Took 10-15 mins I suppose. Served on a plate with brown rice, soup (the juice from the meal) on the side. Yum and easy.<br />
Hooroo, did you ever try that recipe I posted? <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/rugby/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' /> -

Just bumping this up for you guys in NZ, it's probably getting a bit cold there, and this is a simple quick and healthy winter meal-the recipe I posted on the previous page.<br />

I've been having a break, strained my archilles in Feb-ironically, walking a lot on city streets as was busy....so can't blame the stairs. Actually, I do-I wasn't stretching enough, and reckon tight muscles caused me to put too much stress on the archilles, plus shoulda replaced the Salomon sneakers earlier. Finally getting some confidence back in it, although will be another month before can really put my foot down again.
