All-in-one solution

The best solution seems to be Cycling.Diet. While it has all the same features as the other two apps, the main benefit of Cycling.Diet is that it is an all-in-one solution. What that means is that the exercise and meal plans are bundled up in one app, and you won't have to purchase additional plans if you change your fitness goals.
