Nutritiional Plan/Physical Activity Plan
Nutritional Revert
I am typically somewhat healthy; I try to eat right and workout several times a week. I feel as though I get plenty of physical activity, but maybe by nutritional diet is not as good as I thought.

I lack on eating fruit and vegetables all together, but I also was not consuming enough protein or dairy. The only nutrient that I receive enough of and even receive more than what is needed are grains. During my week one tracking I...
