well it only took a couple days to find some errors in my ways.
Mr. Burke actually suggests a ratio of:
60-65% carbohydrates
20-25% fat
~15% protein
the kicker on this is that it is calories he is talking about. when I
relayed what I was generally ingesting (13% fat, 69% carbs, 18% protein) I
had been counting grams....OUCH. I restructered my calorie counter and was
awakened to the truth. I am eating way more fat than I thought. I am glad I
sent that e-mail out!! I also had to change my recover meal menu. the
quantities of food I had formulated were kinda of skewed by the old wrong
system. thank you oBRAs for all the good advice. once again you have helped
me. what is still getting me is eating 3-5 grams of carbs per pound of body
weight. for me that is 525 - 875 grams of carbs a day. that is a lot!!!

ok I am going to the deep end of the pool here...
who counts their daily calorie intake? and what opinions do you small group
have on proportion of fat/carbs/protein. while I am riding a lot I find that
I generally cruise along at
13% fat
69% carbs
18% protein
I seem to have a hard time going for the Burke suggestion of 15% fat 65%
carbs 25% protein. what would be possible drawbacks of my higher carbs lower
fat and protein regimine? why is it that when I try to increase my protein
portion I feel much hungrier (and tend to eat like mad later in the day)?
