My pyramid plan.

The US government has released their new, updated plan at MyPyramid.gov and I thought I would share with you my results:

My Pyramid

Based on the information you provided and the average needs for your age, gender and physical activity [Age: 32, Sex: male, Physical Activity: Less than 30 Minutes] your results indicate that you should eat these amounts from the following food groups daily.

Your results are based on a 2200 calorie pattern*.
Grains 7 ounces
Vegetables 3 cups
Fruits 2 cups
Milk 3 cups
Meat & Beans 6 ounces

tips

1 Make Half Your Grains Whole
Aim for at least 3.5 whole grains a day

2 Vary Your Veggies
Aim for this much every week:

Dark Green Vegetables = 3 cups weekly
Orange Vegetables = 2 cups weekly
Dry Beans & Peas = 3 cups weekly
Starchy Vegetables = 6 cups weekly
Other Vegetables = 7 cups weekly

Oils & Discretionary Calories
Aim for 6 teaspoons of oils a day

Limit your extras (extra fats & sugars) to 290 Calories

*This calorie level is only an estimate of your needs. Monitor your body weight to see if you need to adjust your calorie intake.

I looks like I should become vegetarian. 6 ounces of meat for a day? I guess no more 14 ounce steaks for me.{grin} So, what's yours?
