						Today:
B: steel-cut oats, 2 whole eggs, coffee (at 3:30am)
30 minute workout
Post-workout snack - Cliff bar (really only because breakfast was so bloody early and it was still 4 hours until lunch)
L: (all-afternoon lunch meeting) lasagna, salad, cottage cheese/tomato salad and half a slice of bread. The lasagna hurt my stomach even though I didn't eat very much - I am just not used to eating that kind of thing any more...
S: almonds and raisins
D: (very late) mixed green salad with mushrooms, a bit of cheese, a few almonds, very small amount of balsamic/oil dressing (homemade), skim milk
My hunger is totally besting me. I've just been inhaling everything around me. I mean I'm not totally off the rails, but certainly paleo is no longer something I'm sticking to. I decided I better start eating some wheat again since I won't really have another option on my big ride this summer. If there's nothing but wheat? I'm gonna eat it.
Anyway, today I started the day with a Luna Protein bar and some Fage total with honey.
Usually lunches are amazing at school but we had a spring carnival so I inhaled 3 of the puny cafeteria burgers on the fly in anticipation of our race simulation bike practice after school.
Just before practice I had a banana and a Bolthouse farms berry smoothie. It was pretty heavy, usually I just have a gel 45 minutes before practice and another on the ride.
Drank 1 bottle of Gu Brew and had a Gu Jet Blackberry on the ride. Immediately after the ride I had a peanut butter chocolate Clif Builder Bar. I thought that might carry me through since practice finished around 6 but no.
Had 3 eggs scrambled and some chicken pot stickers pretty late (eating at 8 seems more and more common now that I'm riding so late in the day...)
It is an interesting journey. I really need to get myself Paleo Diet for Athletes for after the big ride so I can get back on track. Or maybe before then. It's just harder and harder to commit to cooking awesome meals the more and more riding I'm doing on top of 9 hours a day of work.
