DK: They remove the salad AND the pita for maximal capacity efficiency and then stuff the box with meat. The pita and salad, which let's face it are simply there as a token gesture, are supplied separately.
SN: I had both chilli AND garlic sauce. I have not had a kebab with only one of the aforementioned condiments for many years now. Only amateurs pick one or the other.
Not happy - I have put on 2lbs this week. I thought I had a pretty good week to be honest with a fair bit of running and one big cycle ride. I was pretty good during the week on the eating - not good enough I guess. Oh well, back on the healthy stuff until next weekend.
SN: perhaps - but chips occupy valuable kebab space in the box and so I had them separately.
I know a lot of people really regret their kebab the next day but to be honest my mouth is watering just thinking about it. DK - I hate reading your posts because they remind me of the kebab I want to eat.
Half a tin of tuna and salad for lunch today /sigh. I really want to get to 12 stones so i can develop in to a hill climbing monster. I haven't been 12 stones since 1990'ish
I woke up this morning deciding that I would try and eat healthier.....and now you have filled my mind with the thought of doner kebabs and sauces and chips..and coleslaw.......
hahaha SO SORRY SN To be honest though - I have read your account of that double IM distance triathlon a few times now. I bet you don't need to lose a single ounce!
didn't you read I didn't stop eating......... always tell myself I will lose weight but it just keeps going on..........I blame it on my age.not the fact I'm a greedy cow
hahaha - i have some experience of this. During the london to brighton off-road bike ride I am 99% sure I consumed far more calories than I burned. I opted on cadburys blue boosts as my nutrition strategy. I was bloated at the end of the ride and still had some chocolate left over because I took so many. I ate them in the finishers area.
@Khanivore - you say the salad is provided separately at your kebabary. May I ask if you ate this green stuff ? If so, and in my experience, putting this green stuff in your mouth is not good for you and may be the cause of you putting on those 2 pounds
Carter - a) after extensive testing I have to agree with you. Schoolboy error on my part - i ate the greenery b) I saw Carter the USM when I was at Uni! Woot!
DK: I thought I was eating super-healthy 6 out of 7 days last week and I ran and cycled a fair bit too. I did not expect to gain weight - quite the opposite. I do not blame the doner for my weight gain. I blame the supposedly healthy food - i just slacked too much on that part of it i guess. Will try harder this week - the thought of next weekends doner will allow me to do so.
Have you considered the meat only diet ? I.e. three square meals a day = 21 kebabs a week with no mixing of food groups (providing you dont put that salad stuff on again). Sounds like a winner to me

I have been thinking about this Khanivore..........day one of my healthy eating and if i fall off the wagon and have to miss the pirate christmas social because none of my smart clothes fit..............then it will be all your fault
hahaha oh noes! Well if it helps, I eat what i want once a week (ok this has been slipping hence the weight gain but you get the idea) so that i can eat healthy the rest of the time and know that i am NEVER more than 6 days away from stuffing my face with what I want.
I work on the basis that 6 days of good eating will more than compensate for 1 day of filling my face
For a full treat I focus on 100% elephant leg/face/bum but yesterday I got doner meat + a skewer of shish lamb kebab to try and be a bit healthy - but cos the guys knows me they ended up just making a gigantic donner and then trying to stuff the lamb in afterwards as best they could.
Today has not been great! I had tuna salad with best of intentions. Then I ate most of my dad's birthday cake - he is diabetic and so i could not let him eat it. Then my brother gave me a cup cake to celebrate my dads birthday which I ate too. To top it all my wife has made a nice curry which I am about to eat - I am writing off today completely and starting fresh tomorrow.

I liked tortuga.......we have a PC game.....Tortuga..pirates of the new world.........and the name seemed to fit in here
But I love's the doner! nomnomnom *burp* Oh and my last name is Khan!
how can you get a doner with extra meat - if you go to a decent kebab place they shouldnt be able to fit any more in, amateurs
but the important question is did you have chilli or garlic sauce with the kebab

so it sounds like you had what is known around here as mixed meat and chips..made large.......

to truly appreciate the stupendous delicacy that is the doner one has to be sober. Never ruin the amazing experience of a kebab with beer.
I like mine at lunch time.
+1
that tuna salad tonight tasted just like a kebab......honest
Checks in as an occaisonal lunch time kebab eater. Yum Yum.
Do you go mixed grill or just all elephants leg. I am quite partial to the mixed grill.

I would rather eat my shoes then a doner kebab.
Chicken? FFS
