Well first of all im a male 16 and my morning weight is only 152.. during the day i can hit 155-157ish. im 6'1 about so i know im too light for my weight

i am pretty strong for my weight but i want to fix my nutrition, i just realized i got nothing to blame except myself, i want to eat healthy and when my parents go to the grocery store they ask what i want to get and i dont even know how to answer

I took a nutrition course but it was just a waste of time, the trainer was wasting time telling me proper exercises even though i told her i know what to do and was more interested on the health part of the food

Obviously i need to eat more, here is what a daily routine of eating might be

Breakfast: Raisin bran ,banana, yogurt, possibly juice

lunch: some water drink (500ml) pear or apple nutri grain bar ham and lettuce sandwich *its pretty much like that every day*

after school: (this is where i usually slip up) maybe another bowl of cereal because i dont know what to eat, or beef burgers, maybe some smoked salmon if were lucky enough to have it, another peice of fruit.. i try to get some protein source in

dinner: it varies all to much,, some time its kraft dinner ( i know its bad ) chunky chicken noodle soup salmon possibly pizza or something high in carbs low in protein possibly a muffin with chocolate or such into it

i work out about 2-3 times a week and have been for some time
this summer i am getting a construction job so that should be keeping me in more shape, i dont do cardio at the gym but i am going to swim more often this year

i think i am working out properly because i have been making some of my accomplishments. Despite my body not looking like it can, i can properly arm curl 50 pounds, bench 160+ on flat or do 70 each hand dunbell flat, i can do 15 chin ups and the list goes on, i think its decent enough for my weight, but not my height, im basically asking can someone give me some more simple food ideas?
If someone needs me to truly write down what i eat for each day i can easily do that, if it needs to be more specific and not vague just tell me please

Keep in mind i wil be making the meals, im not stupid but im no chef
:)

i know the basic stuff, sugar = bad,, white flour is bad (somehow i still take that crap in though) .. I havent had fast food/pop/candy/chocolate bars in a little over a year, i can be very strong willed and i dont get tempted into eating crap, anytime i eat crap its simply because i dont have a craving for it its because thats the only thing in my house and im hungry, if there was real food beside it i wouldnt have a problem eating that instead.

my goal is to reach 165-170 pounds and look decently cut, i realize this post is vague and looks rushed (it is) but if anyone can give me some more food ideas i would appreciate it. Thank you for your time and reading this.
 
Hi Corrado! Welcome to IM! :)
I commend you for your strong will and determination at your age! WAy to be!!

Im going to suggest that you start by reading this entire thread..some very handy info here for you to read up on in regards to proper nutrition, etc.

let us know if you need furthur help from there :)

looking at your diet Im seeing too many processed carbs and NOT near enough protein, which for someone at your age shoudl be taking advantage of your muscle building oppurtunitys. Im also not seeing any healthy fats, fiberous veggies, etc.

what does your training split look like you say your lifting 2-3 days a week?
 
this is what i would generally do, will say i went to the gym 2 times this week

day 1

Chin up (ladder) or just do 12-16 in a row, depending how hard i feel like pushing myself

Pec + Abbs

day 2

Chin up (ladder) or just do 12-16 in a row, depending how hard i feel like pushing myself

Bicep + Back

day 3

Tricep + Shoulder

if i feel im going to work just twice this week ill throw tricep in with pec and shoulder in with bicep

for legs im counting on swimming/soccer/construction in the summer and snowboarding, i know i probably should throw legs in also, but i dont know any good exercises, if someone could tell me some im sure i could fit in a day dedicated purely to legs, i can throw tuna into my diet with ease but im not sure if i can get the rest :( are there any easy/cheap ideas for a protein source besides tuna and protein shake? beef jerky/turkey pepperoni/buffalo pepperoni etc.. are too expensive for my budget
