Just found - need help with race nutrition for 50+
I have been searching for a group to support and give insight on my changing metabolism as an athlete. I'm 52 and this year my tried and true race input is not working. I keep bonking from no fuel yet when I eat to compete I gain. Help.

Close, but not Zero Carbs
I have been following an anti-inflammatory diet that is no flour, no sugar, no dairy. Is that close enough? I do consume carbs in fruit or the occassional potato and oatmeal.

Anyone Following No Sugar, No Flour?

Lost it yesterday and so bummed
I'm sure I gained all of my lost weight yesterday due to a bad binge night. The same trigger that sets me off every time did it again. I just can't seem to overcome this trigger which sets off carb binging. It always starts with being forced to eat lunch at a bad place (fast food which I never do), followed by other…
