− | | Try the Jimbo Test. Picture three things in your mind; a cold drink, a cheeseburger, and a slice of cake.
| |
− | * If the cold drink appeals, then you're probably thirsty/dehydrated. (Remember, drink to thirst as over-hydration kills.)
| |
− | * If the cheeseburger appeals, then you're either after fat or salt.
| |
− | * If the cake appeals, then you'll probably have to some carbohydrate.
| |
− | You can vary the items to suit your taste. For instance, if a doughnut generally appeals more than cake, then think of a doughnut instead of cake. This test is not foolproof, but it is a good, simple way of evaluating want your body probably wants.
