Glad I found this thread as I've already dropped 2 lbs. Don't mind dropping a little, but by mid-summer last year, I had trouble maintaining.
Q: Where is Endurox carried?
ETA: Never mind. Google just told me. GNC & Vitamin World.

for maintenance i have 3,500 calories A DAY and that means on my rest day.eat even when you dont feel like it,i write down what im going to eat to get the calories in every morning and stick to it,often when you are training hard you lose your appetite........as for turning 40,rubbish!since i tirned 40 3 weeks ago ive lost 3 kg!!!
and yes to all their suggestions,little things like THICK sliced bread,im a believer in full fat milk,even some veg hold more nutritional content than others.......
and theres always beer:D
Taking what was said here in consideration, I started eating more on my off days. I've put about 3 lbs back on, which doesn't sound like much, but it's big for me. I'm happy to say, it looks like muscle weight.
Here's some of the in between meal snacks I've added:
Soy Yogurt Smoothies (Silk, and Whole Soy make yummy ones)
Almonds, cashews, and pistachios
more fruit (so even more bananas, strawberries, oranges, avocados etc)
more Orange Juice
I also got myself a "bento box" for my bike, so now the food is always right in front of me. I'm remembering to eat on the bike more often, and that has been terrific for stamina. After a ride I have a full drink of Endurox, followed by a soy yogurt smoothie if I can "fit it in". (BTW, the soy yogurt smoothies have the same 4:1 ratio of carbs: protein, so it makes the perfect after ride snack.)
Thanks for all the good advice, ladies. This thread has been extremely helpful for me!
