banana
salad: kale, sorrel, tofu, mushrooms, rice and with 3 tangerines, and a homemade kombucha.
loquats
1 beer
apple
steamed broccoli
1 garlic bomb (keeps the mosquitoes at bay and off my skin at night) A garlic bomb is traditionally a clove or raw garlic wrapped in cheese. I am vegan so I dip it in hummus or wrap it in tofu, whatever is in the fridge. Garlic is the magical cure to all ailments.
rode 22 miles commuting and 12 miles racing old men up the mountain. I passed all 6 people! And tied one.
Do you think age makes that much of a difference in how much you need calorically?
B: Steel cut oats with nuts, berries, skim milk. 3 scrambled egg whites, coffee
S: berries with no-fat Fage greek yogurt
L: Roasted/skinless chicken breast & Wasabi Arugula salad (yummmy)
S: Cliff bar....later broke down and had single dip mint-chocolate chip ice cream cone and it was wonderful! Figured I would work it off during my ride
Rode an entire 15 minutes - tried to out-run storm to my car. Didn't quite make it, but downpour didn't really hit until I closed my car door :)
D: Roasted/skinless chicken breast, Ezekial bread, fruit salad.
Today:
I had a weird eating day.
Woke up at 5 and ate a bowl of Greek yogurt with blueberries and some whole grain flax cereal thrown in, with about 1/4 a Luna Bar.
Went on a 25 mile ride with Hirakukibou at 6. At about 17-18 miles I started feeling very bonky. It could have been my asthma, but I had the distinct feeling I needed food. We had coffee and I bought a blueberry muffin, but I only ate half... it was too sweet and I just can't eat that stuff anymore. Should have finished the Luna Bar instead.
Came home and ate a piece of Machengo cheese, an orange, and more coffee
very small salad with chicken for lunch, an apple
nuts and cranberries at 3:00
was absolutely starving when I got home at 4:45. Ate a small piece of whole wheat bread and a piece of string cheese
4 scallops with red curry paste/low fat coconut milk sauce, over brown rice, zucchini, 1 piece dark chocolate
I am still starving
I think it does...My parents are in their late fifties and are (well, mom is!) on a portion-size reduction kick. I'm living with them right now, and they give me approximately the same portion size they eat. Between the age difference and my riding, I'm snacking in between meals all the time. (Granted, the only time I don't eat between meals is if I get a giant cooked breakfast. Then I don't really eat anything for the rest of the day!)Quote:

SO, the last few weeks, every afternoon, I have been CRAVING potato chips in the worse way. I looked up "decoding cravings" and read that craving salty things indicated a deficiency in minerals and to eat more greens. I was already eating a salad with my lunch and dinner! I kept playing around with adding more greens to my diet. I finally decided to try a Green Smoothie (smoothie made with leafy green vegetables and frozen fruit). I have been having one with breakfast for the last few days. I can't believe it, but I no longer crave potato chips! And I have more energy in the mornings. I truly did not think eating spinach would satisfy my lust for Lay's Potato Chips, but it sure has. Weird.
Yesterday:
Bowl of cereal with 1%, glass of orange juice
half a Snickers...then I remembered why I only eat the "fun size" ones :rolleyes:
1/3 lb cheeseburger with pepper jack, lettuce, tomato, jalapeno and chipotle mayo, fries with ketchup, a cherry coke
1 scoop cookies and cream ice cream from Ben and Jerry's. (The ice cream was more like cookie parts held together with ice cream rather than ice cream with cookies in it...)
1 slice whole wheat toast with crunchy PB and strawberry jelly and a glass of water.
I've been watching your food intake lately. How do you feel when you ride? I would never make it with what you are eating!Quote:

I dont know I am on this weird kick lately. All I wanted was fruit and I feel great. Although today had more substance. I have barely been drinking water even and peeing all the time. The past month I felt like I was hungry all the time, I was eating like 5 meals a day, I was riding a ton, and was gaining weight, muscle perhaps or just weight. Usually when I ride I gain weight and when i do yoga (I teach yoga) more I loose weight. I am about 110lbs. I kept thinking I was so hungry was cause I was going to get my period but then it didn't come and suddenly all I want is fruit. Weird huh. We'll see how long this kick lasts. I would think I would maybe loose a few pounds but not yet. Maybe it's all the beer and gin I've been drinking to make it balance out. That's the bad part about working at a bar. I have also eased my riding lately 20 mile rides instead of 50 for this past week to let my body rest and recover a bit. I am also vegan so I tend to eat a lot of fruit and veggies anyways. Everyone's body is different everyone thrives off of different fuels. We are human cells and organisms, our needs flux with the seasons and weather I believe as well. Thats why I find this post so interesting. Everyone has such interesting food habits and things that work for them.Quote:
