Wholegrains like brown pasta, brown rice, wholegrain cereal & porrige- slow-release energy2 portions of fish a week- protein & "good" fats
Limited intake of saturated fats from red meat, cheese, cakes, crisps etc.
As much fruit & veg as you can handle- vitamins& minerals
Lots of fluids: water, tea, fruit juice- not too many fizzy drinks!
Just keep your diet varied & you should be fine, but if you've already lost 40lbs you must be doing something right! Make sure you eat enough & try to eat within 2hours of running to replenish your energy- & drink a litre of liquid for every hour you run
well don't do too much carbo loading. before running, eat light but healthy like protein and fats.

Lots of vegetables.get off the treadmill and run outside. if you run 10 miles a day, you shouldnt be so concerned about what you eat (but eat healthy, and eat a lot of food). unless youre really overweight, you shouldnt be losing that much weight. whoever told you to load up on carbs is a total moron. unless youre going to be running a really long race the next day, dont carbo load.
