Another one for increasing protein intake and maybe fat, too. Put more slow burning stuff on the fire. I just weigh myself and watch my fat percentage. I never count calories in or out. I figure my body does that a lot better than I ever could. If I'm losing weight and strength, I give myself more recovery and eat more. If I gain weight, I eat smaller meals. I never change the amount I eat on the bike. Counting a recovery drink, but not counting eating on the bike, I have something to eat 7 times/day on average. I mess with composition and timing so that I'm almost never hungry. Hungry is deadly for me - I overeat every time. Overeating is what puts on the fat. But hungry means that your blood sugar is low and that's not good. Your body can't scavenge for glycogen if blood sugar is low. Glycogen replacement is what makes me hungry. I just keep dribbling in small amounts of carb and a little protein, maybe a little fat, until I feel OK.
