Clean Eating Meal Plan

This diet is approximately 1300-1500 calories a day, with a balance of carbohydrates, proteins, fats, and vitamins and minerals from a wide array of fruits and vegetables. Men should opt to increase each meal by doubling the amount of protein. For instance, add 2 grilled chicken breasts to dinner as opposed to 1 to increase the calories by 100 and the protein as well.
