Goals
My first goal is to hit 199 :) ... I would fill amazing to be under 200 I have not seen this sins like 8th grade.
2nd goal is to work my way down but keep as much muscle mass as possible.
3rd goal is to get down to 10% body fat
4th goal when I hit 10% start bulking up.

    Some thoughts if you are looking to add more calories (not all of these on the same day of course):
    chicken thighs
    whole sweet potato (instead of half)
    whole cup of berries
    whole grapefruit
    3 cups broccoli
    more nuts
    avocados
    olives
    coconut (sometimes you can find it unsweetened)

    The food choices look good. How do you feel? Maybe stay the same for now until you want to modify your goals.
