I know that its really important what you eat before vigorous exercise. But if I am doing daily exercise but not really going on a diet. I eat heathly naturally, I hardly have any sweets or chocolate. If I am naughty I have take away Chinese (normally rice and vedg and a chicken dish) or a pizza hut pizza pan with extra olives and tomatoes on top. But thats very rare, at most twice a month sometimes not even once. More often though I sometimes I have foods high in carbohydrate but not fat. For example today I had Crunchy Nut for breakfast. Then had a bannana. Had carrot, lettus with three fried eggs with a bit of olive oil and salt and pepper (more eggs than normal but all the eggs needed eating today xD also we ran out of rapeseed oil which is better I know but I wanted fried not scrambled egg that sticks to the pan xD) and two slices of toast with margerine. I haven't had dinner yet, I am planning to have brown rice/pasta, chopped tomato and veggy sausage (though if its meat I always cook my chicken in a fat reducing grill thingy first then cut it up and add sauce if I have it or stir fry it with rapeseed oil, I don't eat red meat unless its game like hare, ethical reasons not health)
First how should I time eating lunch and dinner so I am not putting on what I just worked off? I had lunch about 2/3 hours before I started, is this okay? How many hours should I wait until I have dinner?
Are there any food I should completely avoid that I might think are good, like I am pretty sure brown rice and wholemeal pasta is but you never know , as I want to lose weight/tone? Other than foods with high fat, salt and carbohydrates of course =]
Sorry if this was supposed to go in the "Anyone else on a diet/losing... encouragment thread" thread!! As this was more questions than encouragment :lol:
Thank you for all your help!!
