I am goaling for that this summer. I got down 20 last summer and then just maintained all school year. so if I can do the same thing this summer, I will be happy. I eat better in the summer, all the fresh veggies. and I have more time to workout. So that is my focus this summer. I am going to talk to my doctor about talking to a nutrionist too. (but Shawn will not be my helper in this, he eats worse than me) Congrats on the big loss! I am goaling for that this summer.

As in Rest Ice Compression Elevation? Or the stuff you eat? What I'm finding ... and honestly, I'm not sure whether I'm just predisposed to this or my body has adapted but ... if I don't have some protein when eating carbs, particularly simple carbs (read: sport drinks/gels/bars) my stomach is NOT happy, ranging from a feeling of bloatedness to out and out cramps. Oh! Did I suffer from my treat of Costco icecream on Saturday. urg! The high quality protein shake post-workout virtually eliminates any muscle soreness. Last week was a quad-killer bike sandwich - 2:30 bike/1:35 run/3:30 bike all at Zn3 with sprints interspersed and other than being tired, no soreness. And I'm too tired for mood swings. ;) Seriously though, no. In fact, I'd go so far as to say, if I'm NOT getting my protein and tons of veggies my body just sags. Because I've been playing with on-bike nutrition (read: lots of simple carbs) I'm having to be really careful that I get enough veggies - pile driving raw beans, carrots, snap peas - in an attempt to keep a balance. Or my energy just dives. Crazy huh?!? Rice? As in Rest Ice Compression Elevation? Or the stuff you eat?
