and I will tell you what you are

This is bound to piss people off, but I may as well come out with it.

I have to eat constantly and I'm getting sick of it.

I started out skinny, and I've dropped almost 10 pounds in the last 5 months. I've upped my intake a hell of a lot and I'm trying to load up on the heavy calorie foods, but I've really only managed to hold steady. On top of that, I'm looking to up my run distance over the winter, so I'm going to have go up even more calories a day just to hold even.

Now if I wanted to eat crap-food this wouldn't be a problem. Hell, two poorly chosen meals at just about any fast food place would take me over my quota. But no, I get to try and eat relatively healthy which means I'm eating all the god damn time, which gets old.

Here's a tasty after dinner snack.
Brown half a pound (I use ~.6 lbs) of extra-lean ground turkey
Put in a big bowl with a full can of vegetarian refried beans
Add enough cheese to make tasty, but not enough to clog the arteries
Microwave until the cheese melts, add some salsa and you're good to go.

That's a little less than 1000 cals.

I just finished one of those babies, and I'm probably going to have a bowl of cereal in a while. The whole evening I've also been snacking on raisins. This is another good reason why I shouldn't go beyond Olympic distance, aside from the fact that my joints would basically secede from the union of my body if I tried Ironman distance I'd literally never be able to stop eating if I wanted to stay above skeleton body weight.
