Good job on losing so much weight.benkoostra said:This is my experience as well. I triend long slow miles, and as much as I enjoy ridding the bike, I prefer a little speed while I'm at it! So I upped the intensity a lot and found that I burned a lot more fat with a 2 hour high intensity ride than a 3 or 4 hour low one. I lost 35 pounds doing this AND got in better shape. My LT became much higher as well. As long as you don't eat like a pig, this is a great way to lose it fast. It works for Ullrich!
I have to admit for a very discipline person when it comes to training and nutrition that I am struggling a little. With my metabolism now zooming I am driving my wife crazy with the amount that I am eating. I am still slowly losing weight, but by mid week I have pretty much consumed the groceries that were supposed to last the whole week.
L4's = higher grocery costs
