Well i have officailly started dieting and man does it suck. People dont really understand how good food is. As a person who has to limit my diet i really appreciate food. I was talking to one of our heavyweight judo players at the AIS today and he had around about 2 and a half plates of ethiopian beef (yeah weird) and rice while i had to settle for my three quarters of a plate.
Heavyweights (although they obviosuly appreciate food) dont really appreciate it like a lightweight. I was told a few years ago by a guy who spent his entire twenties being a bodybuilder and trying to put a stack of size on. He told me that he spent his whole life eating really crappy food that was stacked with protein and tasted really bland in order to get big. Although once he got bored and started 'not dieting' he said the soon realised how good normal food was.
He said that 'food was there to be enjoyed."
And that is so so true. How awesome is it to chat to someone while have a coffee and cake. How good is it having people over for dinner and they cook it for you (like Josh and alannah.) how cool is it watching crappy tv while eating a tub of ice cream. How good is drinking a hot milo with a caramel tim tam. How good is 3 bucks chips from the takeaway and how good is Maccas. Maccas never ever ever dissappoints.
i have been all over the world and i have seen alot of weird stuff to eat. And against my better judgement i have eaten stuff like jellyfish, chicken heart, pig belly, sushi, sashimi and chicken feet. Although they were all pretty gross it was really fun to scream and throw it all over the place and dare each other to eat it.
Most of that stuff i only ate cos Sam did and i didnt want her to beat me. Ha ha
Anyway you can tell im dieting because i cant stop thinking about food like hot chips, chocolate and slushies.
But hey all you people that dont have to diet for any particular reason get into it and enjoy it because its there to be enjoyed.
And while your eating somehting yummy just think of me dieting a bit and eat some for me :)
