For those working on maintaining weight

[letsride89]

for this thread?

sounds just like me.

100-105lbs is where i am...

lactoseintolerant and i have IBS. try to eat at a restaurant with that kind of diet. ahhaha

maintaining weight is just as much on my mind as if i was trying to lose weight. its annoying to be honest.

great thread!

Yes, thanks han-grrl for starting this thread.

I've had people look at me like I had two heads when I tell them my goal is to build and maintain muscle, and that means eating differently than those who are try to lose weight.

They thought I should be perfectly happy looking like Kate Moss, when I was down to 93 lbs at 5'1".

Somehow it's hard to explain to people I'd rather be able to run a mile without bonking.

Jocelyn - i so hear you...

its so important to find "our own way" to eat for riding and training...

myself, i have found that eating LESS when not riding that day, and eating more pre-rides and during has done much much more for me than eating a steady amount over time, and eating a bit more on rides...

so i actually eat a fairly low calorie diet, but i have felt SOOO good this year on rides.
