If you could choose only one cheat

by **Alex** on Tue Jan 12, 2010 6:47 pm

Following from the thread roadz posted up - same categories, but cheats.

Protein - Beef Burger but a chopped steak one.

Carbs - Some form of decent Italian bread/bun like ciabatta or focaccia.

Veg - Potato's in any form but especially wedges and waffles.

Fat - Cheese.

Fruit - Tomatoes.

Good idea, but to be comprehensive we need a booze category:

Protein - Duck (preferably in orange sauce if that's allowed).

Carbs - Carrot cake with cream cheese icing.

Veg - Dauphinoise potatoes.

Fat - Fromage also.

Fruit - Mangoes.

Booze - Jaeger, straight out of the freezer.

I don't ever have or plan cheat meals....just some of my meals are better or worse nutritionally

What's up with potatoes and tomatoes you consider them a cheat Alex?

For me

Protein - Sausages

Carbs - Pizza (you know what I mean)

Veg - I would just eat no veg at all

Fats - Extra thick double cream - but I have this wily nilly anyway.

Nothing but you need them to make a proper cheeseburger. Realistically I'd swap out for chocolate fudge cake and clotted cream.

It's hard to choose items in specific categories when it's a cheat, as nutrition isn't exactly the most important factor when eating cheat meals... But I'll give it a go.

Protein: BBQ duck, more specifically from a restaurant called 'Green Cottage' - if you live in London or ever visit London, you must go to this place. It's in Swiss Cottage. It doesn't appear to be much but it's actually the best tasting Chinese food I've ever tasted.

Carbs: sticky rice (I love rice lol)

Veg: pak choi in some form of sauce

Fruit: mango

Fat: double cream

I don't follow?

Steak burger, a cheat? Tomatoes? cheese?..OK you don't go overboard on cheese, but it's not a cheat food...and as for tomatoes?

Protein - chicken nuggets..like 30 of 'em
Carbs - Apple pie/crumble with custard mmmm
Veg(?) - umm? McCoys grilled steak crisps

Fruit - Can't really think of any i'd label cheat foods. fruit cake?

Fat - Dairy milk choc
Ale - Magners

Protein: Free range pork belly with good crackling

Carbs: Toasted, crispy on the outside soft and fluffy on the inside rosemary and garlic bread with butter.

Veg: Cheat veg? ....potatoes, floury ones, 10min parboiled in salt water, dipped in semolina and fried in goose fat.

Fat: Mutton fat, with bread dipped in it.

Fruit : Water melon.

(seeing as ollie did it)Booze: Woods 100 proof rum, neat.

Protein: Sausages

Carbs: Baked beans

Veg: Chips

Fat: Fried egg

Fruit : fuck that shit on a cheat :lol:

Looks very like my weekly cheat meal

Booze : A nice beer thats not been mass produced or Caol Ila Whiskey on ice with a touch of water.

I eat and drink what I want and just cut down on simple sugars and booze when I feel I need to

In terms of cheat foods, the only foods I eat that I consider bad are: breast of lamb and pork belly

by **roadz** on Tue Jan 12, 2010 8:16 pm

I very rarely drink but it would have t be a Corona with a lime slice (if that's allowed) in.

by **Will** on Tue Jan 12, 2010 8:55 pm

Protein - Crispy aromatic duck

Carbs - Sauteed potatoes

Veg - Roasted Mediterranean vegetables (Aubergines, peppers, etc...)

Fat - Unpasturised cheese

Fruit - Melon

One cheat? As in one woman you could cheat with repeadetly or just one single cheat?

by **Craig** on Tue Jan 12, 2010 9:16 pm

What is this cheat meal you talk of :mrgreen:

by **Dtlv74** on Wed Jan 13, 2010 12:27 am

Hard this list as I don't consider anything 'cheat', and think a predominantly healthy diet allows space for some junk. Chose the most unhealthy foods I could eat myself to death with.

Protein: sweet & sour chicken

Carbs: chocolate fudge

Veg: salad with rich dressing

Fruit: pineapple fritter & ice cream

Fat: creme caramel

by **Pingu** on Wed Jan 13, 2010 7:59 am

Don't think I can fit mine into the groupings but my cheats that I couldn't do without are...

PEPPERONI PIZZA
Haribo sweeties
Cadburys Caramel
A good single malt whisky (preferably Speyside)
PEPPERONI PIZZA

Mmmmmm......

Only one cheat?
anything containing chocolate.
And I still wouldn't be able to stick to it :twisted:

OMG..... *drools on keyboard*

I don't know why, but things like that really don't tickle my pickle... I've never really had much of a sweet tooth (quite glad tbh).

by **ollie** on Wed Jan 13, 2010 5:47 pm

I don't either really. Never crave anything. Reckon they would go down well though.
