BTW FM,
I've never been one to track calories. Ever. But after checking out that fitday website, I decided to give it a try for a month. I would love to lose 8-10 pounds by my first century in May.
Its a good website. I think all of the calcuations and estimates are spot on.
its amazing how much food I can pack in when I want to. A couple of weeks ago on fast sunday I ate 2,100 calories from dinner at 5 pm until about 9:00 that night. Last saturday I easily put away over 3,000 calories, but that was after a tough 50 mile bike ride that morning, still leaving me at a 2,000 calorie deficit for the day. I could have easily eaten twice that, had I wanted.
