I responded to your comment if you didn't see.<br /><br />I wanted to add that I think my racing performance was better the closer to my initial weight loss (6.5 hours for a hilly 50K rather than 7.5 now). I think I've managed to lose some muscle over the past year lugging around less weight. I put 25lbs in a pack and climbed a local mountain yesterday and couldn't believe how hard it was. I used to weigh that much extra, but I no longer have the muscle to support it. But that should be an advantage for you right now.Drs.

I hope you can keep it gentle enough to prevent injuries. <br /><br />When we first started doing ultras (in 2008), our weight loss came to a screeching halt. Came as a big surprise. Then last fall I upped the mileage (to 45+) for a while (before an injury interfered), and lost a pound a week, down to 138. I couldn't seem to eat enough and wasn't super hungry. Sadly, the same has not occurred this year (yet- I'm still holding out hope).<br /><br />The interview Jimmy Moore did with Dr. Lustig (obesity researcher) was really fascinating. See http://www.thelivinlowcarbshow.com/shownotes/2112/dr-robert-lustig-episode/ It's worth a listen. He talked about studies on obese kids using octreotide (insulin secretion inhibitor) and how the kids starting becoming more active before they had even begun to lose weight. Something about the body realizing it had the energy to spare. It's all in the hormones, we just don't understand them very well yet.<br /><br />Wish I could run a 100 miler. Pretty sure I'd have a rough time (last 50 miler wasn't pretty). Good luck with training!<br /><br />CynthiaDrs.
