October Cycling Challenge - 200 + Miles, 1 month

Fruit/Milk Sugars OK?
I have been tracking what I eat for about 2.5 months now. Been busting my rear end on my bike, and have dropped about 20 lbs. Resting heart rate has dropped from high 60's to mid-50's, and I feel lots better in general. I have no problem meeting my calorie/fat goals, in fact I need to be eating a little more. I do have a…
