Scott's
All-You-Can-Eat Diet
By Scott Stoll
What's the catch, you ask? The catch is riding
a fully loaded (40-80 pounds) touring bicycle 35-100 miles a day
across the country or, in my case, around the world. I consumed
an average of 6,500 calories a day, three times the recommended
daily allowance, on my trip across the USA and, I lost 40 pounds
in the first 2 months. In fact, I couldn't eat enough short of a
buffet. At one restaurant with a scale I ate 7 pounds of food and
I was saving room for beer at the bar afterwards.
These kind of eating habits for the adventurer
are common. For instance, hikers on the Appalachian Trail may eat
whole sticks of butter or bricks of cheese in one sitting and adventurers
in extreme climates, like the Arctic or Mt. Everest, may carry whole
buckets of butter. And, in between escapades, what can be more fun
than eating like a bear bulking up for the winter months.
What I propose is really more of an exercise
program than a diet. I don't believe in diets. They have never worked
for me. However, exercise until you're exhausted and I guarantee
you will lose fat, gain muscle, speed up your metabolism, and eat
like a king.
