42. How many meals do you usually have a day?

38. Have you ever binged? If so, what is your binge food?
Binging: it depends on definition. I have definitely eaten too much. And I have had moments when I was eating 100 g of chocolate in a few minutes or tahina with honey by the spoon. But it always ended after 600-800cals.
There were several reasons I realized now. Either not eating enough on a day, so I just needed more food (carbs and fat). Or more Magensium/Potassium (all my binge-foods are rich in that).
Or it was on days when I already had sugar in the morning. This ends less in a binge than in a eating all day long... And this hast to do with my Insulin Resistance...
So since I know that, and make good choices and supplement all the mangnesium and stuff I haven't binge-cravings anymore.0 -
Hmmm not for me!0

45. Do you have a rest day when you don’t work out? Which day is it?
I don't have a standard rest day.

But when I have a more free schedule I rest in function of workouts I made in the last days (I don't do a specific workout, but many ranging from aerobics, pilates, tae-bo, circuit traning, etc). If I am doing mostly aerobics and pilates I don't get a rest day. But after 3-4 days of intense workouts I would usually rest.0 -
