Jay: In your initial post you said: "Specifically note the total calories you consume and the total grams of protein in each meal" So, because I'm so thick headed, let me review what I should do: I should keep track of the total calories and keep them under 500 (or so) of the total calories I burn during the day. Also, keep track of the total calories from protein and this should be between 25 to 30% of the total calories. No other computations required. Also eat the correct kind of foods as mentioned in your initial post and throughout the thread. This will insure that I don't burn up the muscle required for climbing while losing weight. Also, the 500 calorie deficit can be adjusted higher, if I am not losing weight at the proper rate, or lower, if I am unusually tired. Added the following: Probably also should keep track of the fat calories to insure they stay in the 10 to 20% of total calories range.
