Whoa! Where did all of these people come from all of a sudden? **gets dizzy spell**

I eat apples = an apple a day (with the seeds) keeps the doctor away.

Oh, and every time I eat spaghetti, after two hours I'm starving all over again. It's almost like eating "anti-food". I feel hungrier than I think I would if I had eaten nothing at all.

That has to do with the glycemic index value of spaghetti. Since it is a higher GI value, that is why you experience the tiredness and hungry within no time.

MMMhmmm It's a complete lifestyle change for me, but it works like a charm.

Yes, lifestyle change indeed. But a very good one at that!

 

[Shubunkin]

I'm not even hungry, and it's almost time for lunch here.

I know, and weight loss isn't a pressing issue with me, I'm just not anxious to gain any. But I've been getting tons of fiber lately and it has been kind of upsetting my stomach, so I thought I'd try some low-carb stuff instead.

How about tofu, and things with soy protein? Also nuts.

Oh, and don't forget things like shrimp, clams, octopus, calamari, lobster, crab are lenten. So even though they are expensive (cheaper if you buy and prepare yourself) Maybe like once a week it would be good for you to eat some lenten seafood.

Come on guys! Greg has to get to class and I have yet to get ready and leave to get that package mailed and head to the gym (which I am procrastinating doing today............)!

Well what does have a high glycemic index? I'm huuuuuuuungryyy....

 

[Greg the byzantine]

Yeah refined carbs like flour, potatoes white rice actually make you hungrier, because of the spike in insulin, and the subsequent rapid drop.

 

[Nichole]

You need to google "glycemic index" and read about it and you will understand!

 

[Matrona]

Woooooooooooo!!!

 

[Greg the byzantine]

[Matrona]

[Shubunkin]
