vivalasvegans Posted September 11, 2010 Author Share Posted September 11, 2010 friday:commute24.34 mile ride, downhill with a tailwind the whole looptrackstanded (trackstood?) for a tiny bit for the first time since that day, it was a good thing because i was doing it in front of someone important and falling would have been mortifying food is not so hot, mostly carbs, i'm going to try to slam a lot of protein this weekend to get in the habit. i need to rethink my food plan for the work week. possible solutions:1. slam protein as soon as i get up before i get a chance to think about it2. fill my shake cup with protein instead of miso and ginger, and figure out a way to take miso and ginger to work, maybe in a baggie, that's not too good to do though3. don't let myself eat any fruit or carbs until i hit the protein. this is difficult because i want carbs after my commute since i commute on an empty stomach4. start throwing a boca burger in my lunch again.5. force myself to drink a scoop or two of protein in the evening6. or each day choose 2 options from the above list7. or do all of the above every day honestly the thought of upping protein seems really gross to me right now. i need to do something about that... i'm going to have to think about it this weekend. maybe i'll just naturally move away from fruit since it's going off season and i'm taking multivitamins super consistently again.

vivalasvegans Posted October 23, 2010 Author Share Posted October 23, 2010 well i just wish i could do more tuesday:commute, doctors, went home for an epic sleepwednesday:commutelegs, hard 1 hr trainer ride, more legsquads doms in less than 12 hours, very different from last weekthursday:commute35 mile ride split in halffriday:exhaustedcommute1 hour trainer ride, mediumupper body pt, identified a terrible problem area it feels like i've been eating a lot this week and it hasn't really given me more energy. i know that my muscle:fat ratio is constanantly changing depending on how i can move, so that makes me think i can't depend on a consistent diet plan. i just have to eat to support whatever my body is doing at the moment. it's challenging/frustrating but i think i'm doing ok at it.
