Mental illness is like fighting a war where the enemy’s strategy is to convince you that the war isn’t actually happening.

GOCHUJANG EGGPLANT
Gochujang eggplant is a simple, naturally vegan and gluten-free mid-week meal that is full flavour. It's easy and quick to make and low in oil.

INGREDIENTS
500 g / 1 lb (2 small) eggplants / aubergines
1 cup raw rice (I used white jasmin)
2 spring onions / scallions
5-10 ml / 1-2 tsp high smoke point oil, I use rice bran
small bunch of fresh coriander, chopped
chopped toasted peanuts, to decorate

SAUCE
2 tsp cornstarch / cornflour
2 tbsp soy sauce or tamari (for GF version)
4 tsp rice wine vinegar
1 tbsp maple syrup or sugar
1 tsp finely grated ginger
1 small garlic clove, finely grated
2 tsp toasted sesame oil
2-3 tsp Gochujang (Korean chilli paste)*, adjust to taste

Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle is not about nutrition or training; it’s about both.

You’ll lose weight on any diet with a calorie deficit, but when you add training, you’ll burn more fat without slowing down your metabolism or losing muscle. Putting training and nutrition together is the difference between transforming your body and simply losing weight. Research has also proven that exercise is critical for long-term weight maintenance. You might take the fat off with dieting alone, but you’ll have a hard time keeping it off.

When you make training a part of your lifestyle, you can eat more and still have the caloric deficit you need to burn fat.

“And when your training includes lifting weights, not just cardio, more of what you eat is partitioned into muscle. Don’t starve the fat with diets: Burn the fat with training and feed the muscle with nutrition.”
