Ridecamp: RE: [RC] Hungry newbie.

I'm finding I get what I need with GNC Mycoplex bars or the like; trail mix
is also good. They are based in soy protein and some are very good. There
are lots of brands out there with the same type bar. They
keep your metabolism fired up. Depending on the intensity of the ride, you
may need to eat fairly frequently.

What kind of vegetarian are you? Do you eat eggs, cheeses?

IT's hard to keep my energy level up too especially when training. At rides,
there is the added adrenalin thing there.:)

I hope I am doing this right, I am new to listserves as well as endurance,
but here is my question.  I find that whatever my current diet is, it does
not power me through a whole lot of riding.  I eat a big breakfast before
hand, but it just isn't doing it.  I start yawning after about two hours,
and my energy goes down hill from there.  I know carbs are important, but
what does everyone eat to keep them going, even simply when conditioning?
Also, not to make things more difficult, but I am vegetarian, so big slabs
of meat, chicken, or fish are out....  Thanks!
