And to me too, if you would be so kind!
Aye calm down there fatty. 80 more years of that and you might end up putting on a pound or two.
Well, it is. Most people eat more than that for breakfast alone, so unless she's got some crazy metabolism there's not exactly a whole lot to worry about.
Can I have it too please? I always wanted to know how to make them!
Mate - you misunderstand. Not eating enough can also cause the body to gain lard...
The number of 'slim' people I know that are covered in a layer of fat as opposed to actual flesh as they don't eat enough is quite surprising. Especially if they eat rubbish when they do eat.
and me. Or just post it on here
Then girls are stupid from not seeing the blatant over exagerated sarcasm.
Irrelevant to anything I said. Thanks, though.
And me I've attempted making some myself with friends in the past but they went horrendously wrong.
:yes:
About a year ago, I may have been on the bigger end of a size 10, but I had quite a layer of fat in my abdominal area that has only just started to go. Smaller size doesn't equal lean, and I think that's where a lot of women go wrong. They're so preoccupied with what's going on with the scales, they don't realise they're not actually shifting any fat (more likely muscle + water) so they might lose a few pounds of the latter, but don't look lean with any sort of muscluar definition, because they're not building up any. My 2c
Buttonmoon - could you post the crisps recipie on Food and Drink? They sound yummy. Also good to hear of your new improved food habits
Spot on - I hate mentioning directly that this problem is 99% of the time with women (as they're the ones starving themselves, stupidly. Idiots.) but that's exactly what I was meaning. Numbers are sometimes misleading.
Has to be said, pressing against fat is not where near as nice as proper flesh... :eek2:
Can't beat a a bit of nice lean, toned flesh....
If you starve yourself for too long amount of time, your body will store as much fat as possible coz it doent know when itll get fed again. As previously mentioned. Small meals and healthy snacks are the answer i beleive.
I have been eating unhealthily;
Breakfast-cup of tea
Mid-morning-coffee(skinny latte 35cals)
Lunch-Muller light or salad or half a tub of soup (65cals) and some grapes or a plum.
Mid-afternoon-maybe another small piece of fruit or a can or diet coke
Evening meal about 400/500cals
Evenig snack maybe a banana/jaffa cakes/cereal.
It's surprisin how little people eat, when they think they're pigging out
how is eating like that good?
Whoa!
You need to get more food down you, love!! You'll be doing yourself a damage at that rate!
are you sure you're really hungry when you eat? try having a drink instead or nibbling on something healthier.
and yes, breakfast will definately help. providing it's reasonably healthy.
I'm still eating my recommended 2000 calories a day! Some days I eat shit loads more though (especially when I go out drinking)
I just feel as though I snack a little too much because alot of my friends, don't! I just notice that I eat a little more than most of my friends. Thats all.
I don't want to lose weight, I just don't want to put any weight on. Theres nothing wrong with that surely?
Thanks for those that have suggested some things though! I think I shall try and bring breakfast into my diet but urrrgghh, I can never face it. I do try and eat healthy stuff but sometimes, its just easier to grab stuff. Today has been a bad day as I've been in uni 9am-7.30pm.
Today I ate a sandwich (for lunch), a garlic kiev and oven chips for tea (yes, I realise how unhealthy this is but I didn't get home from Uni until half seven, I couldn't be arsed cooking) and a piece of my flat mate's cake that she made! Thats hardly not eating enough I must make healthy food tomorrow though :yes:
Go away - I make my own potato wedges. They really are quite yummy actually. Haha. Thanks for all of those links though. I shall go and have a look
ButtonMoon - can I have that recipe I have a thing for crisps too!
I'm happy with my weight but I just don't want to put anymore on. People put on weight as they get older and I turned 21 a few months ago yanno I highly doubt that I would lose weight if I stopped snacking but I think I'd feel alot better in myself if I didn't eat so much crap.
May not be healthy but does supress appetite.
Just a suggestion. Don't get so judgemental.
yeah, and smoking crack :thumb:
rofl. fucking pissing my pants, it's so bad but dude it's true!
init! ND GET SOME BASE DOWN YOUR NECK WHILE YOU'RE AT IT! (WHOPS caps lock)
In all seriousness the not eating breakfast thing ain't dong you no favours. While you sleep your metabolism SLOWS the fuck down. What you should be doing is waking up and hydrating yourself with a big ass galss of water. Then after fannying around with beauty rituals, wot, about 20mins, you should have breakfast. My healthy option would be to have one poached egg on one slice of grainy bread (with real butter coz marge tastes like shit) as well as an apple and half a hand full of berrries or similar (strawberries, or just have a mandarin, which ain't aberry but what-the-fuck-ever) and a few nuts. Then you gotta have summut before lunch time, an egg white (coz yolks taste like shit) and some more nuts and a snack of fruit of carrots or cucumber before lunch. Have a proper lunch, thena nother snack. Take your exercise then coz you wanna deplete your blood sugar levels before you have your tea. Have something that has both high and low GI level foods in it to give you the boost to finish the day. Then you should have another snack before you go to bed, but no crisps or other bollox foods. And, I know you drink, so do i, but if you are going to drink, drink something light like vodka and steer clear of the evil that is alcopops even if they are on buy one get one free. yeah! init! you only eat four times a day- that's not enough, I completely go along with the whole eat little and ofen and exercise every day. Getting started is hard but damn, girl, seriously. once you get into it it will be so satisfying.
/drunken rant about how to nto be either hungry or a fatass
Maybe you should try getting up 30minutes earlier than you are used to, this will give you a bit of extra time to get hungry and wake up a bit, also I find a glass of water or fruit juice is really nice first thing and then once i'm dressed etc to actually eat.
Being out of the house all day is difficult because not only are you tired when you get home, so you just want some quick and easy (probably fatty) meal for a quick burst of energy but you have already said you miss breakfast and your day time food is more likely to be made up processed stuff out of a package. You should buy nuts or something that you can carry around with you and graze on throughout the day. For lunch you should try and eat a variety of things, so one day eat jacket potato, next day sandwich, next day a wrap and most places sell mini pots of vegetables now as well.
It sounds like you are eating the correct amount of calories but from the wrong sources, which is probably why you feel like you are eating to much, I think you just need to make a few healthy swaps.
