7AM - Recovery Drink (snack)
8AM - 6 Egg Whites (1 prot)
------- 2 Turkey Bacon (1 prot)
------- 1 oz. shredded low-fat cheddar (1 dairy)
--------1 glass V8 low-sodium (1 veg)
10AM - Protein Bar (snack)
12PM - Level 1 Tuna Salad (2 protein, 1 fat)
---------1 serving of Bean Sprouts (1 veg)
---------1 Whole wheat tortilla (1 carb)
---------1 oz String Cheese (1 snack)
3PM - 1 plain no-fat yogurt (1 dairy)
-------1 banana (1 fruit)
6PM - 9 oz. Grilled Chicken Breast (3 prot)

Great planning. Doesn't it make it easier to have it portioned out for us.
If you plan like that every week, you are going to love this journey!

Hey there. I just wanted to make sure you were aware of the resources you'll find here: http://www.thefitclubnetwork.com/2009/01/p90x-nutrition-plan-made-easy/ That's our breakdown of the P90X Nutrition Guide and you'll find some great resources there.

At 195, the P90X plan would have you at almost 3,000 calories and your day would look like this:

PROTEINS - 7
DAIRY - 3
FRUITS - 1
VEGETABLES - 4
FATS - 1
CARBS - 1
SNACKS - 3 DBL BAR DRINK
CONDIMENTS - 2
WATER - 8
SUPPLEMENTS

So, it looks like you've covered those bases. A word on Dairy. Don't feel like you need to get in all that dairy if you don't want to. I hardly ever eat dairy. The reason they put in 3 dairy's was to limit dairy, not to force people to take in something they don't want to. Also, if you want to eat more veggies, go for it. They are good for you. The plan is trying to limit carbs here, but the carbs from veggies are really high in nutrients, so eat them.
