What about fruit? Do you eat that at all?

NeVeR

I'm just making my pre-work meal: olive oil on the wok, add crushed garlic, add a slice of cod, add a chopped-up pepper and some chopped-up spuds, ad half a chicory. If I had some white wine I'd put a splash on, but I don't, so maybe a little bit of mirin. Yum!

Start off the day with a bowl of porridge or meusli.

Go see a doctor will you.

Oh yeah, and then raspberries and sugar and some mild 'jogurt' from the Russian shop.

NeVeR, you're tired; are you also thirsty and peeing a lot and craving sugar? If so, walk, don't run to the doc to make sure you're ok.

For normal good energy, you need to eat properly - protein, veggies, fruit, grains in the right proportion, oily fish once or twice a week, meals at regular times. You also need to get enough *exercise* - a half an hour's walk every day is good - and *sleep*.

Human bodies like regular meals and sleep and exercise. We're designed for routine.

But yes, if you're shagged all the time, go and see the doc.

i dont eat fish, Not peeing alot or craving surger,,, what if i was ?? what does it mean ?

I think i'm a the worlds pickies eater, i dont like most foods. Normal dinner for me is Meat and spuds...

Just a questions. I have a Juicer if i juice up veg would i still get the same value from it ? meaning would it be the same as eating ,

They're the symptoms of type 2 diabetes.

Also, eating>juicing fruit and veg, as you lose out on all the fiber when you juice. Your body also metabolises it faster- not good for sustaining energy.

Thirst + peeing a lot + sugar = danger of diabetes.

Picky eating - have to re-educate your palate, darling.

Juicer is good. Try carrot-and-apple juice (2 carrots + 1 apple) for a start.

2 cans of Red Bull should help your energy levels
