Is your reach too long now? You have to consider your seated position relative to your BB, as well as to the bars. If the saddle needs to be moved fore or aft to correct the BB distance, you'll have to experiment with seatposts (0 or offset). If it's just reach, maybe a shorter stem would work for you.
I went for a professional bike fitting a couple of years ago. It was amazing how small differences in saddle fore/aft and stem length made the bike much more comfortable. Well worth the money, IMHO. In fact, I'm probably going to have another done to get my new bike properly set up.
