Consult your handy Food Guide Pyramid. Nancy Clark's Sport's Nutrition Guide
is probably the best and most common sense approach to healthy eating while
competitively training; an excellent resource.
If you're looking to lose weight: first step is to evaluate any possible
sources of "empty calories" particulary from sugary beverages, including
fruit juices. So "eat" your carbs (don't drink them unless it's water OR
your out for a longer ride) and focus on increasing fiber. Keep in mind that
unless your ride exceeds 2 hours, the need for extra fuel/calories is
unnecessary because you are not depleting your readily available carb stores
as that usually doesn't occur for most people until after 2 hrs of exertion
takes place. This is just a start. Good luck!
