Hi ladies,
I'm new to the ST forum but have been lurking for a little while. I was hoping that someone out there would have some advice for me and my diet (or lack thereof).
I HATE to cook-I don't enjoy it and I'm no good at it. My husband loves it, but has completely different nutritional needs from me. So on the nights that we don't go out to eat I find myself making a sandwich or something equally simple. The problem is that now that I am entering the build phase of my season I can feel the need for better food. The problem is that I don't crave it. I want to eat dessert, cream sauce on my pasta, and I'm not big on fruits and veggies.
I'm not trying to lose weight, although a couple of pounds of fat would not be missed, I just need to find the easiest method possible to eat healthier. Is there a book out there on nutrition for endurance athletes that says more than %carbs/protein/fat for kg bodyweight? Or should I just start making fruit smoothies my snacks during the day?
Any advice is greatly apprecitated.
