From what I've heard/been told - carbs don't kick in straight away anyhow. They take time to be absorbed then transformed into potential energy. As opposed to sucrose/dextrose/maltrose/glucose (all of those me thinks) which are instant return energy - this being the dangerous sort of energy to store if not exercising.<br />
<br />
I'm with you IR - I need my carbs (at least some) at night to absorb so the next day I can charge thru my exercise the next day. -

If it doesn't fit - force it. -
Don't weight yourself everyday. Once a week max. Better at the end of the month. Always on the same day if poss. e.g. the last friday.<br />
<br />
Thirst is often mistaken for hunger - so before you go and have a snack drink 250-500ml of water and see if that fixes the jobbie.<br />

Have sex/wank vigoriously. Cause its fun. <br />

What can you [b]fullas [/b]give me to not carbo load all the time. I eat spuds/pasta/rice too often - have been getting on top of couscous (flavoured stuff is wicked) but I dunno if thats just more carbs or not. I dont want to cut them out - just have a substitute to cut them down.<br />

First of all I'll overlook the "fullas" comment. As for a substitue try a variety of beans? Aduki,soyabeans,lentils,pinto etc.I like them.Go to Holland and Barret or your local market.Learn to combine you're food too (i'll do a topic on it if anyone else is interested).After all,your digestive system has to be in tip top condition for successful weight loss and if you're consuming foods that don't digest well together you wont lose weight.Very simple.<br />

I'll take that as a compliment. <br />

You're completely right - good habits make the diff.  I go to the supermarket down the road every monday and get my supplies. Most of it keeps well in my drawer and now it's habit it seems like the easiest thing to do. I get sustained energy throughout the day as opposed to when I'd peak for 20 mins then crash and burn for the next 2 hours until i got another sugar fix.<br />
Farkin great sex drive too. Nuts n berries boys. Chicks dig it. -
Whack some blueberries in your cereal bowl too. Awesome detox and system jumpers they are. <br />
I buy a bag of apples, 2 bags clementines, satsumas or mandarins, 6 bananas, 1 punnet blueberries, raspberries or blackberries and plums or nectarines depending on what's in stock every week. That's my snackfood. I hardly touch anything vaguely sugary/chocolatey/fatty because of these bad boys.<br />
I'm lucky enough to be able to eat my brekkie at work so I get fruit & fibre every week too. I never get sick of it as I just add different berries or a banana and it's great. <br />
<br />
Sorry - thats brekkie I know. For Lunch I make sambos most days. Trying to mix it up by using wraps instead of bread and depending what left overs from dinner are, I usually enjoy them more. Lower fat and carbs and they come in nice flavours too.<br />
Cold cooked turkey is great to whack in there and tomatoes a plenty. I still haven't solved the soggy sambos dilemma yet tho. -

Ahh, I sort of can't make that now.<br />

Something to do with coming back from a bender at 7am, without letting the wife know where I was. My excuse that I was too drunk to remember to text went down real well. I've also been feeling rough as guts and [b]getting sick really easily for the last three[/b] or weeks, so time for a break.<br />
