Butterbean Posted July 4, 2013 Share I find the best way to avoid eating this stuff is by making myself a deal for each item... So if I want a chocolate bar, I can only have one if I ride 25kms...If I'm too lazy to ride, then I don't deserve the chocolate. II dint think there's anything wrong with these things. Remember your body will often crave things because of a deficiency it has. But of course, if you're like me, I can't stop at a block of chocolate... It has to be the whole slab... And that's why I can't climb hills fast;) But seriously. Treat them as rewards for hard work and it makes me feel less guilty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Low Posted July 4, 2013 Share I buy the big tub of nuts from woollies. I just like a little snack while watching tv. Keeps me busy.Love nuts too, but 50% fat makes them the not-so-little snack. Managed to wean myself onto Lindt 85% & get through a couple of squares of that a day, its good with greek yogurt and banana; & I have a tame cardiologist who'll write a certificate that its good for me, esp if accompanied by red wine. So, no choice really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruiser Posted July 4, 2013 Share Start a penalty box, when having a choc deposit R10. Or put the money you would have spent on buying the sweet in the box. Before you know it you have a little extra for the bike. Have a cheat day once a week where you binge, no penalty imposed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please drop me pm and I will discuss further with you.Main reason most of us have cravings is as a result of a lack in protein intake.If you are serious about this please pm me and I will gladly assist you with this.

T-Bob Posted July 4, 2013 Share Cola bottles... Trulli ones work a treat. Truthfully, I eat what I eat and I race how I race. Yup, if I drop 10 kgs I could be faster, better, leaner but I could also be a sour, obnoxious, obsessed tool as well. I ride, I race, I cook, I eat good food, ride good times, I drink good wine and I love good produce (choccy croissants included). Life is too short to eat food that you don't love... or to worry about it. If I was a pro racer then I'd worry about it. I was, and I'm not now.
