[QUOTE="phoenix, post: 260117, member: 12578"] At first glance I don't see any dark green leafy veg (lettuce doesn't count, not much of anything in especially if it's iceberg.), these are good sources of many vitamins and minerals. Possibly not much vit C and not a lot of fibre unless you're eating lots of nuts. As already mentioned there doesn't look to be much calcium. But none of us can tell you. You really need to ask a dietitian or more immediately you could put the amounts into a calculator . This one is from the US and is very detailed. Not unsurpringly as it is based on the US recommended diet it will tell you that you are deficient in carbs and probably that you are eating too much fat/protein. It will also calculate your mineral and vitamin intake against the (US) RDA for each nutrient. I haven't actually used this one (used it's predecessor) but it will be fiddly to use as sometimes US names aren't quite the same as in the UK [url=https://www.choosemyplate.gov/SuperTracker/default.aspx]https://www.choosemyplate.gov/SuperTracker/default.aspx[/url] [/QUOTE]
