    Check out the stickies, there is a document in there called shopping list. I like lots of salad greens, pepper, celery, cucumbers, green beans, asparagus, etc... More fibrous veggies, less carrots, corn and pea. Well, technically corn and peas are not veggies but I won't get into that, I think you know where I'm going with this

    Update!!

    First let me explain the drop in calories that you see here. Over the past week I followed the diet I previously posted I noticed some significant fat gain around my mid section which is supposed to indicate that I am taking in too many calories or carbs or protein so I lowered them all to see how my body reacts. I am not a hard gainer so maybe I don't need over 3000 calories because the scale has moved 10 pounds in a week but most of it is from water retention so I also lowered my sodium levels to below 3000. I took away carbs after 6pm also but my cals are lacking in that last meal will it make a difference? And I have a diet for the days that I am not working out I took the calories further down since I am not working anything off.
