Welcome and good luck! :drinker:

I think you'll find it useful to check out the threads in the nutrition section -- a lot of people share sample meals, recipes, day-to-day eating habits, etc.

That should get you going in the right direction. A lot depends on the foods you like and lean towards and making healthy choices and logging everything you eat to see what you're eating and how it's affecting you.

You'll find a lot of info and a lot of help.

foods are easy. When you're doing your shopping, stick to the perimeter (avoid the aisles) you've got your produce, your meats, your breads and your dairy. That's all you need. I jump into the aisles for things like brown rice and coffee, but not much else. If you can shop this way, you'll know you're eating wholesome, healthy foods.

Best of luck!
