cpsnow, what made you gain weight? you said over the holidays (you mean the 4th?) and ate sugar (do you mean refined processed foods or fruits and veggies?).

Sounds to me you have a handle on the situation. And that perhaps, you can't have both at one time?

Just my take on it.

I was a competitive athlete in college and for me being type 2 diabetic and eating 17-30 carbs a day, my muscles honestly couldn't support a grueling work out. I been doing this ratio for about 4 months with workouts to maintain good Blood Sugars. Right now I do 30 minute weight circuit 3 times a week and 22 minutes on the bike (hills work out). And my muscles are burning before my heart rate can get my heart rate up to 80-85%.

I would say it has to do with the carbs/insulin reistance on my part.

I say stick with what you know, works. Be patience with the short term disruption to your athletics. And then once you are where you want to be at. Start experimenting with some fruit during matches or intense work out sessions. And all other times (non match/work out times) watch your carbs.

Just my take on it...
