    If I ate everything in both pictures, I would still call it a good day.

    ETA: minus the soda; just personal preference.

    Ditto.

    I'd take the top picture.
    when you need to eat 3000+ calories per day, you see how hard and expensive it becomes to eat the foods in the bottom picture every day.


    just sayin'. there's room for some junk in some peoples diets

    LOL, yes, the meals are not for everyone. But for someone of my height on a 1,200 calorie day plan... it works for me. I'm also not a 100% clean eater which accounts for the few treats on the chart. This image was created over a year ago to show my MFP friends that it is possible to fill up an entire day with 3 meals, plus snacks, plus treats, on 1,200 calories. It's all about choices... and something I really, REALLY, need to be doing again. :)
