Healthy suggestions....

Proteins: Chicken breast, egg whites, protein power (before and after workouts), low fat cheese, fish, lean cuts of beef/pork

Carbs: Oatmeal, whole wheat pasta, quinoa, whole wheat couscous, brown rice, whole wheat bread

Fruits: apples, oranges, bananas, grapefruit ect

Veggies: asparagus, spinach, green beans, brussel sprouts (yuck), mushrooms, peppers, zucchini, cucumbers, brocolli...ect

If you want to provide your height/weight/age/gender it will help in determining how many calories a day you need to be consuming. Also, what are your specific goals? How much weight do you want to lose?

I hope this helps... feel free to ask more questions...

Meal choices and eating times.

Need to see how you currently eat, to see if some or many changes are required.

Also be aware that whilst things like Brown Rice and Whole-wheat foods are good, (as mentioned above), they have a good Amino Acid content, so you need to bear that in mind, incase you eat those with a Flesh or Fish source, and eat too much Protein.

So that means, Flesh / Fish, with Veggie ars for example, or reduced portions with things like Legumes, and Whole-grains / grains.
