  • I some how lost weight while we were in Colombia last month. I did very little exercise, yet ate loads. We were at altitude for long spells like Medellín (1540m) and Bogotá (2600m). But in reality our diet was first class, with many homemade tasty meals especially breakfast (paisa beans) and lunchtime (sancocho - variety of wholesome soups)

    My theory is down to:-
    Eating a lot of unadulterated fresh fruit with fibre
    Very little wholemeal wheat
    No GM corn
    Very little trans fat consumed
    No convenience meals
    Massive reduction of beer intake and no wine

  • Looks like a drop in general food GI, and fat intake.

    I under ate slightly yesterday. Then did a pretty tough 2x20 on the turbo.

    Making my porridge + REGO + whey protein, I was seriously hungry. So I necked a tin of mackeral. Didnt really help. But it passed the time. Then I ate a really generous bowl of porridge. But that didnt help either. Had to sit there Cold turkey. Telling myself the hunger pangs would pass.

    Low GI really doesnt give me the kick I crave :(
