Paleo diet?

[Catrin]

I HAVE had large issues with not consuming enough calories - you might remember my venting about this earlier in the year. When we don't get enough our bodies just don't want to give our fat stores up - and it is true that we have to work harder than men to do this.

While I've not lost a lot once I increased my calorie intake by close to 40%, I've really not gained anything either. My weight is trending about 2 pounds lower than before I added the calories. My diet is pretty clean where processed and whole foods are concerned, but of course I've still been eating sprouted grain bread and whole grains about 2-3 times a day.

GLC - do you eat snacks, or before you go on a long ride? Westtexas' comment that she didn't even have to eat before going out to ride got my attention. Obviously she didn't just start eating this way the other day...
