I’m not posting here as I’m looking to lose weight (the opposite, if anything), but does anyone else find Fridays lead to a desire to eat all the things?
I tend to have a rest day on Fridays from all exercise (I run and ride quite a bit, and do some core work in the gym), and, despite needing less calories for fuel, I almost seem to eat more on these rest days. I don’t know if it’s a ‘fuck it, it’s Friday’ mental thing, or my body wanting to catch up on fuel as it’s resting?
Recovery also needs fuel, particularly if you are trying to build some body strength. Finding the most appropriate may help. Do you do anything in the way of recovery fuel shortly after exercise?
