Guilty pleasure. Eating. What else?

[nchunc]

Please trust me, I do not plan to come across insensitive.

I hope I am not alone in saying that I have taken running purely for the pleasures of eating?

I have started the programme with a different intention. Well to run 5K obviously.

Now that I am just about to reach the two years mark, the objectives have realigned along the way.

Very soon into 10k mark, I have discovered that I have a bigger appetite than normal on running days. Started running three days a week and soon discovered I have acquired the ability to have anything!

.

Now the objectives are being realigned as we speak. Binging on junk foods have become a thing of the past. Occasional treats are just had during the running days. All I can think of is why work hard to be healthy and then poison myself with foods that has more than 15-20% of every single macro nutrient? I do crave pastries but not enough to push myself into making one or buying one. 😊

Years and years of neglect, and now this. I can’t believe it!

Yes, it’s amazing. After a year of running, my appetite is self regulating and my desire for naughty things has all but vanished. So I say to new runners, enjoy your guilty eating pleasures while you can, because eventually they will be pleasures no more - thus neatly removing half the excuses not to get out and run 😂😂😂

Indeed!

That’s cool... I don’t have many food vices... but I shall aim to run for pizza... apparently it’s good for you now 😂😂. Well, not in the calorie sense, but the cheese magnified the tomato’s antioxidants or something!

I found a research paper (funded by the American pig breeders association) that scientifically proves a bacon sandwich made with fresh crusty white bread is good for you. So I'm sticking with it.

IThe running is working off the junk food, I’m losing weight and still eating the ‘good’ stuff, win win

I thought of this when I saw the words guilty pleasure... only just got round to looking it up.
