    Well, were you doing cardio on your training days before this? If so and you were getting satisfactory results, then you may still want to adjust on training days. However I wouldn't rely on calorie restriction to make up your full cardio deficit, i'd go about half. For instance if you were burning 500 calories/day with your cardio, i'd only drop calories by 250.

    cardio and training were on seperate days and I was getting great results...

    Definately on training days I push myself to the point near exhaustion, so on these days I need to have my numbers up.

    Are we talking calories all around or just carb cals?

    My sweet potatoe cals total just over 700 cals/day so would it be safe to start with on non training days to cut the s.p.in half, up my veggies and add some extra fish oil? Considering Ill never drop the oats with bfast.
