  • 1:16pm (Meal 3) – Breakfast for lunch. Ever since the race, been like a pregnant woman. Lots of sweet cravings. Wondering if I actually depleted a lot of my sugar reserves. Based on MyFitnessPal numbers, I’ll have no problem replenishing the reserves. Bottom line … I eat too many sugar-filled foods, but the very bottom line, oh well. I also enjoy my food and exercise regularly. An easy trade-off!
