    Most important is figure out healthy combinations of food for each day. And eat up to only 80% full (in how your tummy feels). Instead of a prescibed "type" of diet.

    As for the meat vs. no meat. I don't create an absolute but instead just only have lean meat /seafood 3-4 times per month. A fistful of meat portion each time or less.

    I know that TE discusses here and enough members use the nutrient replacements in their liquids, etc. But I've never tried them.
    I just picked up a freebie energy waffle shaped snack from a bike store info. table at bike to work week. I guess I'll save it for a 100 km. ride or so.

    Perhaps try eating breakfast and lunch decently. Then eat alot less for supper. Unless you're going out for a long ride in evening. Eat supper no later than 7:00pm if you can.
    I found for a job with a ridiculously long commute, I didn't eat until 8:00 pm and hadn't eaten much during the day. As a result, I didn't lose weight. My body adjusted to this insane starvation pattern!

    Severely cut down on processed foods. ie. Instant noodles has a ton of salt and other chemicals. Not as tasty as light pasta with some veggies.
