Here's my take:
-
Cut back on those Monster Energy drinks, the artificial sweetener in them can wreck havoc on your gut microbiome.
-
Ditch the Orange Juice, it's just as bad as soda.
-
Swap the white rice for whole grain rice.
-
Swap Chobani for plain yoghurt
It's good to see salmon, eggs, real butter, and avocado. Perhaps grab some broccoli or other Cruciferous vegetables next time you are at the grocery store.
If you are having trouble quitting soda, then it might be worth investing in a sodastream (or similar) or buying bottled sparkling water. You can even buy caffeinated soda water these days. I know this isn't the best advice, but I had a hell of a time quitting soda, and making that switch really helped me.

I love monster tho!
My wife loves oj! I can not join in I guess
Is whole grain rice actually better? I gave bought brown rice but maybe that’s not whole grain
U and @Undisciplined both said plain yogurt
Yea had broccoli at home already. Love cruciferous vegetables and cabbage!
We drink a lot of la croix. Is that good enough?
reply
When I said Wholegrain rice, I meant brown rice :). And it is better than white rice, with a lower GI rating, more fiber and nutrients. When I looked at your trolley the purple package of jasmine said 'white rice' on it.
La Croix is alright, plain sparkling water is better.
For Yogurt, try buying yogurt that is low in sugar and specifically use words like 'pro-biotic' and 'unsweetened' on the packaging.

Unsweetened yogurt! Ok I’ll take a look.
Can I add a bunch of sugary granola to it?
