This diet worked fairly well, with the one problem being the amount of refined sugar. This was not a problem during the race itself, when I was burning 3000-4000 calories a day, but once I reached dry land my sugar addiction caused a very rapid regain of the 30 pounds that I had lost during the crossing. Cookies will do that to you….
So now that I have finally weaned myself off sugar I will be continuing a sugar-free diet on the Pacific.
