Spartan is on the road to a better life
I agree with what dankelt said. It looks pretty good to me also but i have a couple of words of advice since you are planning out your meals. Something i found when i first started eating clean was that package labeling can be misleading. If a product is advertised as "low fat" or "fat free", compare the carb content to the non-low fat / fat-free version of teh same exact brand/product. Almost EVERY time the low fat one will have TWICE the carbs as the regular version.

Also, do a little research on men consuming soy products. I've done a little reading on it & essentially what the research says is that consuming soy products promotes estrogen production. Having increased estrogen levels in men promotes love handles and moobs. There is a littel more to it than that, but that's the abreviated version. So no soy for me. Personally, I eat foods that promote higher testosterone levels to help in my battle with the scale.

I'm currently in my second challenge (back to back) and I've noticed that the cleaner i eat, the better results I get from being in the gym.
