Okay, so here's the deal:

I've realized that I have been eating nasty food for the last few years. Why? Because it's very convenient to spend a couple bucks at Taco Bell and get a lot of food.

With the history of high cholesterol in my family, as well as other health issues, I've decided that I'm going to stop eating the crap that I have been eating, and start eating "right".

Here's the problem, though: I usually work a 10-hour day, with little time to eat a normal meal, and I don't really have the convenience of a refrigerator at work. I need something that I can keep in a lunch cooler all day, have something to eat in the morning, something around noon, something in the evening just before I leave the shop, and snacks in between. I eat a lot during the day and I work pretty hard. I suppose I need a little bit more calories than the average person, and I need carbohydrates more than most people.

The last time I weighed myself, I was nowhere near being "overweight", so I don't need to lose weight. I don't want to eat foods with saturated fat, if at all possible, because that's just nasty. Sodium is good for the summertime, because I don't have the luxury of working in an air-conditioned environment, and I sweat a lot usually.

So, now it's time to work: What kind of a diet do I need to be looking at? What kind of foods do I need to be puting on my grocery shopping list?
