    The New Food Pyramid

    Check it out... mypyramid . gov ... I'm taking Nutrition for Athletes and I came across that site in my book. You basically punch in some information and it tells you how many calories a day you need, how many cups of veggies, fruits, etc. I think it's geared more towards the aerobic athlete so I plan on increasing my meat intake, but I'm going to start following it.
