rgaDawg's Journal, 28 October 2019

That No-Gain entry won't be there two days from now, because after 2,000 miles of riding, I'm taking a planned (4) days off, rest, bike maintenance, and last two days spending with friends in San Antonio will make a big change in my glycogen stores, which won't be burned as usual. My SA friend's have way different food supply than me, honey grams, pop-secret, even cokes, enchiladas. Not really concerned about the sugar, sugar is rare, been off it almost a year maybe, and a day or two of sugar splurges don't seem to trigger cravings any longer. Actually, after a day or two of refined sugar (cake, coke, brownies), my body feels done. I only weigh in 2 -3 times per month anyway, and hopefully things will stay put @ 173, when rides resume. Shopping, cooking, freezing, organic ButterNut Squash soup, making more ride energy bars, but using Coconut Flour vs. Almond Flour. Was looking for ChickPea flour (because seems to have a better macro balance for fuel), but couldn't find. After reading label, the coconut flour comes in at less fat, more fiber, less cals than the Almond Flour, a few more carbs, but that's good fuel, and as a bonus, it's way less expensive than Almond Flour. Do not wait for the storm to pass, learn to dance in the rain. Live a Great Story. Life is good, ya'll :)

Congratulations on being able to stay away / limit sugar. Splenda is the best I can do. Better than nothing, but it still has 'fillers' that is basically still 'sugar'...

Coconut flour is harder to deal with... It is pretty dry... takes some trying.... I sometimes mix the two nut flours. When I use splenda I use the liquid one. It has no fillers. But not the best for baking as sometimes you need bulk and different kind of granularity.

I need harder on the flour that cooks the ride bars. I'll have to see if that works. Thanks for tip.

You do so well! I have gone sugarless and felt so go for so long. I am afraid if I have some I will be trapped back to eating it often. I thankfully have been able to leave it alone most of the time still. A treat from time to time is enough! I am so thankful, because I know I feel a lot better limiting it!
