Crankin, do you ride everyday?? Seems like you do. Are you partially retired? Doesn't your body get tired from riding everyday? I couldn't figure out why I was so tired all the time or why I had no energy at work; I work the dinner shift at a restaurant and run around all night. Then I stopped riding for a week and I was bouncing off the walls with energy. Maybe I need a day job where I can sit? Then I could ride everyday? I just want to ride and ride forever and ever! Have a great Vacation. I'll be on Ragbrai in 2 weeks eating tons of PIE!!!

S: cherries and 1 banana
L: spinach salad, no dressing, with chicken breast
D: 2 fish tacos, rice, beans, 1 margarita
breakfast, lunch and dinner time - Fried Chicken with Mushroom Potato Soup on the side :)
In looking at your posts in this thread, I have to say I've been struck by how little you often eat and, in particular, how little protein you eat. Have you considered the possibility that your diet might explain your fatigue? I know that's a pretty loaded subject, and it certainly was for me at one time. I'd just encourage you to fuel your body sufficiently and worry less about the scale. Oh, and drink a lot of water. :)

I have to say for certain, any restaurant job where one is standing on their feet for an evening or day shift, does require burning off enough calories.
Watching servers run around in a moderately busy restaurant, I know that I couldn't have a job like that for a decade without burning out abit. Maybe that explains why my father could eat a large plate of rice with other stuff for dinner..for several decades of his life. He was full-time restaurant cook for over 5 decades of his life. And never overweight, actually abit underweight.
