Kent Peterson has a simple weight control plan “ride 12,000 miles a year and eat whatever you want“. This last weekend he put the plan to work:
My favorite cycling event of the year takes place each August on Bainbridge Island. On Sunday, August 17th, 2008 I joined with a bunch of wise and hungry folks to ride my bike on a picturesque island and eat a bunch of wonderful pie. On returning home, Christine quizzed me about the food.
“What did you have?”
“A slice of pumpkin pie. And a slice of pecan. And a slice of chocolate creme walnut. And a slice of peach pie. And a slice of dutch apple. And then another slice of pecan pie for dessert.”
“You had six slices of pie?!?”
“Well, yes. I restrained myself. I didn’t want to appear piggish.”
He has more to say on the matter. It’s delicious reading.
