Food Choices Matter in a Big Weigh - The 3,590 Calorie Menu

The intention of this menu is to demonstrate the power of food choices.  This menu is based on the Diet Bites Food Comparison Chart below using the maximum daily servings allowed.  The chart contains a little over 3,590 calories and again is intended to illustrate the power of food choices.  Of course, this menu is far too high in calories for weight loss purposes.

 

Click here for Chart 1 which weighs in much lower at 1,810 calories.  Besides the big gap in calories, the only difference in the charts is that one incorporates foods that contain less calories.  We used the same maximum daily servings allowed on both charts.  Here is our menu for Chart 2 - the 3,590 calorie diet menu.
