Do you ever go through them?

Forget "balanced diets". Ever since I can remember, I've gone through food phases where I will eat almost nothing but one thing that I really like for a week until I get sick of it. Then, depending on the craving, I'll eat something else that I really like for a week and so on. I've gone through pizza weeks, pastry weeks, chocolate weeks, spaghetti bolognese weeks, liverdumpling weeks... and now I'm in a yoghurt week ...

should I see a psychiatrist? laugh

Oh ya. Worse yet, the junk doesn't make you feel full, so you eat more of it. Strangely enough, I don't recall ever having had a salad week or a tuna week without mayo week laugh

On a more serious note I have never had phases regards eating.I do eat sensibly due to a cholesterol problem ,but I love cooking and even though I live alone I eat really delicious and different meals. I think sometimes its your lifestyle that dictates what you eat.Being retired I have all the time in the world to cook whatever I fancy.

Yes, on a more serious note, I quite agree with you in terms of lifestyle dictating eating habits. I've lived almost my entire adult life "on the go," eating out a lot and maintaining absolutely no dietary discipline. I think it's fab that you enjoy cooking and that you have the leisure to cook whatever you please. I once spent a month at a hotel with full fare and it was wonderful having been served 3 different meals every single day. So I can totally appreciate what you're able to do for yourself. I can't imagine myself cooking though because I don't have the skills or the patience blushing Old dog, new tricks, you know wink
