A: Most of those foods don't sound too bad. Obviously pop, pizza, and taco bell are junk, but if you only eat them once a month, then it's OK. Instead of potato bread, get whole-wheat or other whole grain. Go real easy on the ranch dressing or use mayo instead. Since it sounds like you eat cereals more than anything else, then that's where you can improve the most -- instead of your current choices try to eat plain old-fashioned oatmeal (big cylindrical Quaker boxes in the supermarket) and add bananas, berries apples, or cinnamon to it if you need to make it sweeter. Honey nut cheerios and cinnamon roll oatmeal both have a lot of added sugar (bad), while plain old fashioned oatmeal does not.
It's very good that you eat all those fruits and veggies -- keep doing that! A nice big salad with grilled chicken breast and olive oil once in awhile would get more protein and more healthy fats into your diet since it's pretty low on both now. And don't forget about being more physically active, as I said in #683. Your man boobs will definitely disappear with a healthy diet and exercise as you grow a little older.
