My diet is low simple carbs. I eat most vegetables at will, but very limited sweet fruit. My lunch today consisted of a turkey wrap on multigrain with a small bag of chips (13 total carbs). I typically unwrap these, eliminate the excess tortilla & then rewrap. My dinner for tonight will be italian sausage with peppers & onions (no roll) and a side salad (hold the croutons).
After my commute home, I plan on hitting the mountain bike for a 17 mile ride with 1,300 feet of climbing in the first 4 miles. I'm going to eat a banana / apple sauce packet about 20 minutes before the ride to see what that does for me.
I refuse to go 0 carb. IMHO, 0 carb type diets are temporary & unsustainable diets. Temporary diets always lead to bad things. IMO, a diet is a lifestyle that must be able to be maintained.
