i remember reading somewhere that you could go by the following when determining the amount of calories in fat, protein, and carbs. anyone second this?

4 calories per gram of carbs & protein
9 calories per gram of fat

oh, i just found it. it was on coolrunnings web. it has a good article about it.

it gives a chart of how many grams of each one should eat based on a daily calorie level and the 60/25/15
