Top Health TipsHere are helpful health tips. Enjoy better health!

I know Google could probably answer this question, but perhaps people with some actual experience in the health and fitness field could provide me with an “official” answer. I have been dieting and weight-training for about 2-3 months now. I used to weigh 223 lbs 6ft 2 and am a male, with a high body fat %. I have since then dropped to a healthy 187 lbs, and much less body fat %. What I have noticed, from my experiences so far at least, is that eating healthy is 75% of the battle. My goals are to shed a bit more of my “fat” and regain weight as muscle. Mainly, my diet consists of veggies, lean meats (chicken, turkey), tuna for omega 3’s and high protein, shrimp, black beans, cabbage soup, fruit salads, fat-free yogurts, Quaker original oatmeal, occasionally whole grain cereal, fat free protein milkshakes, whole-wheat turkey wraps, egg whites. All of which I do NOT add salt and I try to choose products that are natural and do not contain additives. I also try to keep my fiber and protein intake high, and my carb intake lower, but not eliminating healthy carbs of course. As for my exercise routine, I lift 4 days a week (with proper form and correct reps/sets, and an all-american high school lacrosse player as my “trainer”) as well as run a warm-up 2mile run pre-workout. I also play competitive basketball usually 3 times a week. Feel free to throw in any suggestions as to what types of foods I should incorporate or take out. If you can, let me know if this is a pretty “solid” diet for someone who is looking to still shed a few pounds while also gaining muscle. Should I stay away from fruits with higher carb counts such as bananas, etc? Should I stick with a very low-carb diet or continue to do what I am doing. Iv’e noticed that I started to incorporate more carbs into my diet but all of them are considered the “healthier” carbs. I just don’t want to stalemate and would like to continue to see progress. Thanks in advance!
