Total (calculated by DailyPlate.com)     |      Compare to my recommended daily allowance:

However, I'm not sure my values on Daily Plate are accounting for the amount of protein I want to eat to gain muscle - according to P90X's nutrition plan, at this point I should be consuming:
7 servings of protein
3 servings of dairy
1 serving of fruit
4 servings of vegetables
1 serving of fats
1 serving of carbs

So I really need to find a way to cut down on carbs (and sugars...) and boost up my protein intake.
