    Guy, here's my advice: stop stressing over all that crap and simply eat right at, or just under, your daily calorie allotment; in addition, make time for exercise at least five days a week. If you follow the plan everything else will, to quote the Bobs from Office Space: "work itself out naturally." When you start getting into all that micromanaging stuff you asked about you'll eventually drive yourself insane.

    What are you putting as your activity level? I find many people overestimate what their activity level is. Unless you are really training for a big sporting event or are a professional athlete, you are likely in the moderate or under category.
