No, I totally totally agree with you. I only eat complex/good carbs. However, if I do not eat something substantial in the afternoons, I am near dead the evenings when I have to go to the gym.
I have started reading my book and she mentions that you have to eat fruit alone, with nothing else. Will I never, here I was mixing it with yoghurt and even my salads....Well, I do not believe EVERYTHING I read either

You'd be surprised how many guys goes to this class!
It really is great, nothing like aerobics. You basically do a full arm, leg and bum work out to music and a women screaming at you (sure bloody feels like boot camp!). You can use weights that suit your body and work to your own speed.

I have to admit, I am addicted, and the instructor's body is definitely an incentive for me

I'm fairly lucky.....I eat pretty much what I like!! And I have a weakness for ice cream......have one or some almost every night!! :o Then again I'm not a pig and don't go wild on chow....however I NEVER ever think to myself "Oh I can't eat this coz it's not good for me and I'm gonna pile on the pounds"

Then again I do a lot of exercise and when I go to the gym (2 or 3 nights a week) or play sport I always put maximum effort and come out exhausted.

The exercise is needed to run off all the beers comsumed over the weekends!!

I have been at stages where I went on diets, all women does.
Now, I realise that I am hurting my body in the long run by eating unhealthy. I still do eat treats and the only reason why I am not having something is because it is not good for me, and not because it is going to make me put on weight.
For example bread. I absolutely LOVE bread, any flavour any way, but I am wheat intolerant, so I know that eating it will hurt me.
Like the book says you have to have the 80/20 outlook. Eat right 80% of the time, you have the 20% gap to be norty
