As far as vitamins/nutrients go...Seems like I’m talking to myself.
This was my food today.

I’m kind of concerned about the amount of sugars/carbs/vitamins. I know my dinner wasn’t the healthiest (katsu and rice) but I thought the rest of my food was healthy. Mostly fruits.

I'm not seeing any veggies on your menu. I don't know what that is that you had for dinner but, again, no veggies to be seen. Instead of that apple with the almond butter, try carrot sticks. Add a salad in there some where. Or throw some cauliflower rice or spinach into your morning shake. I promise, they don't change the way it tastes, they are pretty flavor neutral. Spinach will make the shake green, but that's itAs far as vitamins/nutrients go...
Fat seems pretty good... mostly ‘healthy’ fat rather than unhealthy. I would’ve rather had less trans fat, but I didn’t have a ton.
Cholesterol seemed good. 84 mg out of 200 max per day.
I had 1,200 mg of sodium, which seems pretty good.
Potassium... uh oh. Doesn’t even appear, although I know apples have at least a little bit.
Carbs-seemed like a reasonable amount. Especially considering most of them weren’t from something like bread.
Sugar seemed good. Most was natural. Fiber seemed good as well.
Protein was alright. My goal is about 60 grams, so I was nine grams off, but I think that’s ok.
Oh my goodness though. These vitamins!
I need more vitamin a
I don’t need as much vitamin c, although I don’t think the amount I’ve had is harmful.
As for vitamin D, didn’t eat any foods with high quantities, but I do take a supplement, mostly because it’s nearly impossible to get the amount of D needed in the PNW.
I need more calcium
And less iron. Holy moly! I take a iron supplement too, because I was anemic for a while. I need to be careful, I think!
Ok, I’ll try that!I'm not seeing any veggies on your menu. I don't know what that is that you had for dinner but, again, no veggies to be seen.

Definitely a good reason to add veggies in a smoothie! Even some bitter but nutrient rich veggies pair well in smoothies….for example…kale with apple and protein powder plus almond milk and ice!!!!Ok, I’ll try that!
I definitely prefer fruits over veggies, as they taste better and I have them on hand more easily, plus some veggies break off my brackets (I have braces) but I think that’s a really good idea.
