Are Spiders and Flies Low Carb?

Today, was a gravel grinding day on the squishy bike, as my road bike Bart is in the shop still. Turned out to be a nice day, albeit muggy and luckily, somewhat windy, on the dikes in Pitt Meadows.

I took my electrolytes (High5 sugar free low carb) in my Camelbak hydration pack and 2 water bottles (better to have too much than not enough), plus some macadamia nuts, 2 Detour bars and some Beef Jerky packets.  I ended up only drinking a small amount of the electrolytes from the hydration pack and not even feeling tired.  Lots of energy.  I just rode, with a couple of stops for pictures for Strava/Instagram.

I headed out early today, leaving at 9:22 am from Jerry Sulina Park and it paid off, hardly any zombies (only one really).  I crossed over at Kennedy Rd. to the paved path along the south side of Lougheed Hwy., which goes to McMyn Road at McLean Park, where I turned around and went back.  Many little spiders testing their web making skills, along with little flies, all of which, I ended up snorting or eating.  Nom nom nom

When I got home, I thought I might be hungry, but I wasn't, so I decided it was time to mow the lawn and eat the weeds.  After I finished the yard work, I decided it was time for lunch, but being keto (after that pizza took it's toll and is finally gone) means I don't eat as much and get full much much faster.  I had an Atkins Advantage chocolate shake, a sirloin burger patty and a cup of macadamia nuts and I'm stuffed.

That's it for today.
