I made myself and the family a yummy tortilla tonight. It was made with potato, onion, eggs, ricotta cheese, fresh parsley and basil and a sprinkling of Parmesan cheese on top. And may I say it was exceptionally yummy. Taillah my daughter decided she wanted to add a salad to the mix and made a divine Carrot Salad. A totally vegetarian dinner and it was to die for. I can safely say now I am full, but prior to eating my meal and as I was cooking I was ravenous.Last night's meal was a feast fit for any carnivore on the planet. A juicy T-bone steak with a green salad. That was absolutely finger licking good. I not only gnawed on the bone I did not leave one bit of meat on that bone. I even think my dogs would have turned up their noses to the naked bone I left behind. I just can't seem to eat enough now, I am always hungry.
I remember back to when I was trying to lose weight and having to re-train my brain to eat smaller portions. All I wanted to do was eat cause my portions were so small they would have only fed a sparrow. Now I am always hungry cause my metabolism has sped up so much I am burning more than I can put in and I even think I can put Fred Flintstone to shame eating the amounts I am beef I am eating. My body is obviously craving protein and I can't seem to feed it enough. I guess it's ok considering everytime I exercise I am burning a tonne of calories. And if I don't fire up the engine with enough fuel then it's just going to burn out. And anyway, I feel in tip top shape doing what I am doing. The scales never show weight gain at the moment if anything they are either sitting pretty even or showing a slight deficit in the weight department.
I seem to be managing ok on my own so far.
dont you love it! being able to eat, eat, eat and not gain weigth as a result! Enjoy it! Cheers

ReplyDeleteBarb, for those of us who love to eat (me included) that's a great bonus to an active lifestyle! Most people would love to be able to eat as much as they want, and not gain weight! As I run more miles, I sometimes have to even eat MORE than I really want to keep my weight from getting too low! Is that a good problem to have, or what?
ReplyDeleteSkierz: I sure do, but it took some adjusting in having to up the calories.You brain kind of gets hung up on calorie counting when you are losing weight.
ReplyDeleteTragabuche: Me encanta poder comer ahora y no poner peso. Voy a visitar el archivo y ver la tortilla.
Vern: it sure is a bonus and the best problem to have. I used to be like this when I was younger, eat, eat, eat and be stick thin. I love it.
Not much to add except I like how you spell tonne which correct if I'm wrong would be considered the Queens English? I work with tonnes of Canadians they do the same thing.
ReplyDeleteThankyou so much Mara for your comment and for visiting my blog.
ReplyDeletePatrick: Sure is the Queen's English.
