Thanks guys, that's what I was looking for, I've stopped sugars, potatoes,pasta etc & I'm looking for a replacement. I'm going to get back to my power walks to help with the my strength. My suspicion is that the large muscles in my legs were burning energy at a crazy pace and I wasn't properly 'stocked' up. I've been doing water only and wondered if I could sneak some Gatorade. I'd read that to much water was about as bad as not enough as it 'washed out' the electrolytes that you need, definitely going to try the coconut water with the lime & salt. I may invest in that book also. Thanks

BTW is there a difference between yams & sweet potatoes?
