Had to add that I do know one person whose post-Ceroc 'meal' is an entire Vienetta.

Can you EVER eat Vienetta whilst laying down? I don't think it's humanly possible. Unless you have a really big mouth and are feeding said treat in vertically... hmmm. Methinks this particular conversation might be better in 'take it upstairs'...Originally Posted by Rebecca
Why's that??Originally Posted by Purple Sparkler
I know folk who are regular gym goers and they recommend a bowl of cereal and a large glass of high-juice squash about 30mins after a workout - so I guess this should apply to dancing too (the idea being to replace lost salts, rehydrate, be healthy and give your insides something to work on as all the blood flows away from your muscles and back to your internal organs once you've finished exercising). Failing that a banana is a good option, you need something with potassium in to stop your muscles cramping up .

Bananas beforehand, Special K afterwards.
(That's the theory -but if it's a long drive home the odd bar of chocolate mysteriously finds its way into my car but has disappeared by the time I get home. Strange, that.)
BB I'm one of your marmite on toast brigade.Originally Posted by Boozy Bird
Supplemented with low-sugar jam on toast and a lovely cup of rosy lea. Ahhhh.
Sounds OK to me, except there's not really enough ice cream in an entire Vienetta.Originally Posted by Purple Sparkler
There seems to be much talk on here on what the proper healthy options are, but after all that activity, I just want indulgence, and quick! So a large (I do mean large!) bowl of ice cream, preferably with cake, tart, whatever's going, ... maybe even a banana if I'm desparate!
I'm sure we have had this discussion a long time ago, though I couldn't find it on searching, there have been mentions of caviar and pickled garlic, but neither are that easy to come by at the local Sainsbury

Glad to hear the positive rap for bananas, I just have them because they are convenient!
I like to make a debanana smoothie after dancing. It's quick and filling and yummy. It's just a banana, honey and milk combined with a hand blender. On special occasions when I'm feeling very happy and energetic (like I could be bothered to get another ingredient out of the fridge) I'll add in yoghurt or ice cream
Yay, another smoothie fan!Originally Posted by Debster
I occasionally do post-dance smoothies. i.e. made in advance, left in car whilst dancing (big effort of will there, I can tell you), then drunk on way back, yum!
The trouble is, they're no longer so cool and refreshing now the weather's getting warmer
Just clicked on 'New Posts, and saw this thread next to the 'Rhubarb Recipes Please' thread . The threat of eating rhubarb after dancing would be enough to make me stop dancing permanently
So I start with a curry-chip-marmite smoothie with some isotonic noodles and pickled toast on the side to be eaten in a vertical position, followed by viennetta-redbull-cake-jelly which must be fed to me whilst I lie down, and am thus horizontal, washed down with a banana cereal cappuccino with a twist of hi-juice sprinkled with crisps and topped with sugar free jam?
I'm off to Tescos...

I don't eat anything after Ceroc. Well, maybe an orange if I can't ignore the hunger pangs. And a glass of water.
