MUFC Posted December 16, 2023 Posted December 16, 2023 For the cooks. Is there a certain food you get hooked on for a short period? Like a phase? For around 3 weeks I started having a few roast potatoes with my meal. Upping the number of potatoes now and then. I stopped and then had parsnips as a side but then started having both. I managed to both but it had a small downside. My diet most days is plant food and the carb intake is moderate. These potatoes have resulted in nearly half a stone being put on. Am still in decent shape even so I've only started upping the intensity of my training due to breaking one finger and the other being fractured in August. Have you ever gone through or go threw phases of being hooked on certain foods? Quote

Low carb tortilla wraps, cooked chicken slices, bit of veg and some sauce. Keeps me full til dinner pretty much, and stops me snacking. It's quite boring but it's efficient. 1 Quote

For the starter, I don't know - but probably filet mignon & some form of potato for the main. On 09/02/2024 at 05:53, MUFC said: How many grams of carbs per day do you consume? I don't count them anymore. There was a while I was on a diet where I'd try to really limit the number of carbs I ate to a very low number - and it was effective at getting me to drop weight quickly in a month right before my wedding. But it was awful mentally and I genuinely did not feel healthy. I think if you want to watch your carb intake, you should just be mindful of how many carbs you're eating - but I'm not sure it's worth it to obsessively try to limit yourself to a daily number of carbs per day.

Moderator Tommy Posted April 25 Author Moderator Posted April 25 Doesn't look like much, but I made a vegetarian "Bolognese" tonight. Used onions, carrots and celery like in a normal Bolognese, and instead of meat I used chopped mushrooms and walnuts which gave it a nice crunch. And herbs and spices of course. Quote
Danny Posted May 4 Posted May 4 (edited) Manged to buy a tiger bread type baguette today, cut it into slices, heavily buttered, added some goats cheese on top, then added a slice of salami and chorizo before topping it with a tomato slice seasoned with salt, pepper, olive oil and red wine vinegar. Pretty fucking nice, even if tomato's are shit in this country Edited May 4 by Danny 1 Quote
