I honestly dont think anyone ever craves protien, whereas carbs tend to give you a limited high (blood sugar?) when you overeat them, which the body/mind seems to like. Think its a genetic thing back to caveman days

Give your body a rest for a couple days, eat plenty veg and fibre, drink plenty water, gives thebody a clean out. Obviously theres something not right somewhere and trying to force your body to do something it doesnt want to isnt the answer. It will win in the end. So clean out for a few days and when you get back on the wagon try some of those enzymes and build up slowly

I crave protein when I havent eaten enough for a couple days,I also loose my taste for it when I have eaten too much for a few weeks,hence I go veggie for a week till my taste for pretein returns..you can also become very very sick from over eating protein...I think the medical term is toxicosis(sp)and to treat they take people off protein for maybe even upto a yr to clear the blood/system of it completely,due to the blood becoming protein saturated to the point were even an egg a day is too much...

Crikey, think i'll have to look into that one, i knew renal patients etc get put on a low pro diet but didnt realise that it could affect healthy folks.

would they not waste away with having no protein????

Bigdav · 09-08-2005, 03:55 PM

nope, the body is incredibly efficent at holdong on to what it has, as long as they are eating plenty carbs then it shouldnt cause much of a problem

Lauren · 09-08-2005, 04:16 PM

But surely for someone who wants to look like a fitness model, not eating protein could cause a problem huh!!!!??

Its only for people that are seriously sick..the blood is so jam packed with protein the body is starting to shutdown because it cant cope with trying to clear itself of the protein,so the medical profession take them of protein so that the body can use up all that is already in itself,thats another reason why I dont totally beleive that you need protein every 3 hrs on the dot...

hhhhmmmmm very interesting thoughts their OSC.

It is very hard to try and find a diet that suits you, your lifestyle and your goals huh! I mean I love fruit and cereals and people always tell you to steer clear of them and I think well its natural produce, how can it be bad for you. Sometimes I think to myself why dont I just eat what is natural, you know no processed foods (not that I do anyway) but you know what I mean.

All very conflicting!

Not necessarily, although protein does have its place. when it comes to dieting, or tryiing to lose weight, just go by the KISS (keep it stupidly simple, or whichever words you want to use) As long as your daily calorie intake is less than what you burn, you lose weight. Most people tend to fail because they make the diet tooo bland, or eat the same foods over and over, or they become too fussy about the details. Protien isnt essential, but it does help by filling you up for longer, aids in regulating blood sugar, and has a thermogenic effect on the body. Look at liz hurly(sp) she loks good and all she seems to eat is one meal a day and that probably consists of two smarties. Stressing about the whole situation just buggers up your body due to cortisone.

Bang on laydee, just do what suits you, not what some mag or guru tells you, as someone else on here said, bodybuilding should fitinto our lives, not the other way around

Keep at it hun, you'll get there in the end

Kindof sounds like stress to me.
Stimulants can burn out your adrenial glands.
DHEA is good for burned out adrenials.
B12 is good for upping your appitite.

Sounds like stress to me tho.
Do you sleep ok?
