Angle of your back?

So lately I have been messing around with my saddle to try and get an idea of a better fitment and lets be honest, I definitely f***ed it up. My sit bones are not sitting right in the saddle and I am uncomfortable on it (I moved the saddle forward and now back).

I started to look up information on the correction dimensions and saw Carlton had started a thread (http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread...ght=body+angle) about trying to get newbies the correct fitment information. I have the Fit Calculator that I am going to try, but I am still a bit confused.

Ideally, how are you suppose to sit on the bike in regards to back angle to the ground and reach I guess is another thing I am asking. I picked up a Kilo TT last summer and have all my spacers between my neck tube(?) and the bottom of my handle bars, but I see everyone getting rid of them usually and having a high saddle so I don't know if I am not sitting correctly on the bike or if my fitment is way off. Am I sitting too high?

Basically, I am looking for beginner information on how to properly align yourself on a bike. I am going to try and get fitted this weekend back in my home town so any tips or info on the fitment would be a huge help.
