I’ve been hitting the gym like a woman possessed. People always say that I have the most obsessive compulsive personality they have ever seen, and I probably have to admit to that 😛 This time however, my latest obsession is EXERCISE!!! Been going around 6 times a week, much to the surprise/suspicion/horror of everyone around me. No one’s known me to be a gym bunny – EVER. So it’s still quite a foreign concept to all, hehe.. The great part is that I’ve got a couple of fellow gym nuts, which really helps as we keep each other motivated.
Only thing is… so much exercise is making me eat (or is INHALE a better word?) copious amounts of food. Pasta, in particular.. because it seems to be the ‘heaviest’ meal that can keep me full the longest. I guess the downside of exercise is that it shoots your metabolism into overdrive, so I’m finding I need to eat a substantial amount of food every 2-3 hours or I go mad/faint with hunger. So been cooking lots of pasta dishes, but trying to keep it healthy by keeping the cream/oil/fat content down and adding salad leaves in.
Homecooked tuna pasta
Chicken & mushroom pasta
WOW. A quiz after my own heart. And so, so true.

 Eating is not just a hobby for you – it’s your life. And while your friends do appreciate your good taste in food, they’re a little disgusted by how fast you shovel it down. |
i admire your determination. For me, exercising means weekends shoppings. :X
Haha I tend to agree with that! It’s hard to keep going regularly though :X
i havnt been to gym for more than 2 months now..yesterday i finally went for 20 mins run along the track close to my host family..right now im in japan for a summer course in a country side..here is amazingly beautiful!! 😉
Japan is sooo lovely, you’re lucky! I haven’t been in years 🙁
Ooo I didn’t follow/write a recipe! It was basically just some ingredients mixed in with the pasta, haha
It was super easy, which was what I’m after. Between going out and going to the gym, there isn’t much time left to myself to cook! :X

Going to the gym is addicting! For me anyway – I always feel so much happier when I go. Must be the endorphins or something. =)
I’m not sure if it actually makes me feel good, but I like the sore feeling afterwards, haha. And I’m determined to bring that bodyfat down so I don’t have much of a choice! Just hope that I can keep it up.. it gets a bit boring after awhile I think:X
Welcome to the mad mad world of gym nuts. I hit the gym 6 days week to. At my worst, i gymmed for 45 days non-stop
It’s killing my social life!
Whoaaaa! But I agree, it’s hard fitting the gym in as well as going out. I’m trying to go in the morning but it’s WAAAAAAY HARD :X

i feel like i’m way too thin to go to the gym super often. i go around 3 times a week and do 2 hours of class. i makes me eat sooo much too!!
becareful thought, don’t get too think on me 😉
Wow that’s definitely a lot, you’re doing great!
I feel like it’s good going to the gym if we’re thin, ‘cos then you bulk up with muscle etc.. well, I hope so 😉
i went to the gym 6 days a week for about 3 months but alas….im lazy again 🙁
I have a feeling I might be like that too… lol. But i hope this obsession lasts the long haul!

I’m disappointed. I would have preferred to see a picture of a bit of pasta to go with plate of saucey fat! Not the otherway round… You don’t deserve that gluttony quotient…
nope! Am super trim and healthy now.. And this time, I’m GONNA STICK TO IT!!
Oooh, the pasta looks really fresh and yummy!!
Exercise is good, I should really get back into it. I’m just too lazy and I feel too cold.
But I hope you don’t go overboard with exercise!!
It’s hard to get motivated to exercise.. i don’t actually love it, but I’m too determined to stop, heh!
