Tomorrow will be the second full week with the nutritionists. The weight has come down and I have dropped 11 pounds since my last doctors visit and 6 pounds since I first talked to my coach. I have noticed a few things:

With lower carbohydrate intake at breakfast I have less explosive energy right now. Al least it feels like I have less. I just finished a half Century Monday and I felt good by the time I got home but I found drinking electrolyte replacement has become way more important than it used to be. I can spin my legs fine but I am getting into smaller gears a lot sooner because I just don't feel I have the power to mash a big gear as much as I did before. However keeping a spin going on a hill seems a bit easier. My coach says my body is learning to transition to fat burning and by using zones I should do fine. But I am not ready to enter and city limit sprints right now.
