Good thread. I don't really like counting calories all the time but I guess it would become automatic routine if I did it for couple of weeks... Just been cutting down carbs for now... As you've probably seen in Torben's thread, I mostly do only cardio training. Now after I've been doing some epic lumberjack work I have started to think gym could be even better way to work out (my log splitting career ends in couple of days 
)
Use myfitnesspal.com and write down what you eat (you can even use the app on your smartphone. It has a barcode scanner and almost every food is in the database, even white label foods of Belgian companies)
You don't have to start your day with counting out what you will eat that still fits your macro's, just start tracking what you eat and you will probably notice you are eating too much carbs and too little protein. Find alternatives and eat some more foods with better protein count, track it again every day. After a while you just know what you should eat to follow your macro's and it will go all by itself.
You only need a food scale and myfitnesspal.com, you just put it next to you while you are cooking and weigh the stuff before you eat it/prepare it.
It takes very little time and doing this, I actually brought some order in my life which actually created even more time. Time you can spend on health, your job or whatever you like. It's not like you can't eat stuff at BBQ's and parties anymore, you dont have to track your stuff every day and it doesnt have to be 100% exact. It's an estimation that will help you to follow a guide line. You will learn the nutritional values of your foods better and healthy cooking will just become second nature.
