Help losing 20 lbs

[Brandon White]

This made a big difference for me. I started eating more consistently while riding and really got in the habit of trying to never feel hungry while riding. I no longer feel a huge spike in my appetite after the ride and, if anything, I sometimes under eat for recovery. When I go to the gym, however, it's at least 2 days of wanting to eat everything I see.

I seriously forget to eat and drink while riding. I'm going to put a sticker on my stem. "EAT OR GET FAT"

203.0 yesterday

I've dropped 8.5kgs since October. Down to 78 now after cutting out a chocolate addiction and most other processed sugar. After 3 weeks off chocolate i fell in a lethargic heap struggling to get out of bed etc. Started taking a chromium supplement and the rest is history. My weight doesn't fluctuate all over the place anymore, riding is so much easier too.
I used chocolate for comfort struggling to cope with fatherhood but things are easier now.

Still at 213, I have been recovering from a back injury so training has been light. I am ok with staying where I am for the moment.

Chocolate is my biggest addiction (aside from riding too much says my wife). I now have a cup of hot chocolate after dinner every night. Does the trick, just hot water with 2 teaspoons of cocoa (1 dark, 1 regular) and 2 teaspoons sugar and the cravings are gone!

BTW, down to 138lbs/6% now, ready to kick some butt.

Sorry to hear that Doug, hope it's nothing serious.

My left knee is starting to bother me, so I might have to lighten up as well. I put more miles on the Kirk in February than since receiving/building it last summer and I don't think my position is setup correctly. I'd been fiddling with my cleat angle before I remembered that I switched to new pedals. Hopefully it's something as simple as swapping back to the 105 pedals from the Dura-Ace on the Kirk. The Dura-Ace spindles might be a little narrow for me.

Back is getting better, I need to remember that trainer riding creates odd stresses in my back. This makes postion changes potentially hazardous, I switched postion up a bit and within two days was having problems.
