When I first started triathlon it seemed like I was force feeding myself 5000kcal/day but eventually that became background noise. With this running I have paid zero attention to eating, but I’ve stayed the same weight and might even be adding a little muscle, and also body fat as a result of too many miles and lower testosterone probably. I typically eat three meals and have three snacks in addition to the 5-6 scoops of protein powder a day.

One thing that is new is eating first thing after I wake up. One day at my usual breakfast after the miles went way up realized I had just eaten an entire box of cereal without even realizing it. I also house a quart of ice cream after my Sunday long runs… that’s been too.

Oh yeah, I drink gallons of milk per week.

Edit: to be clear, one of the reasons I’m not hungry ALL the time is because of the protein.
