What to eat?

My old diet usually went like this:
No breakfast or some thing crappy like a bagel or sausage sandwich that I pick up on my way to work.
Fast food for lunch (most days) I just run across the street to Arby's or get a burrito or something.
Dinner is usually pretty heavy. Amy makes great food but I usually eat to much. Sometimes we are in a hurry so we just get Burgers or something else greasy.
Dessert, more often then to we eat ice cream or cupcakes or something after the kids go to bed.

My new diet goals:

-A healthy breakfast (the most important meal of the day) This week it is bananas and oatmeal. I want to mix things up though so I don't get bored.

-No more fast food lunches. If I don't bring a lunch from home, I will go the the fresh "A" market and get  fruits and veggies.

-I need to limit my portion size. Only one serving that can fit on an average size plate. No fast food dinners, at least for now.

-I need to limit my desserts to one day a week.

I am going to use this diet for the next 3 weeks and then hopefully fine tune it so it can be adapted as my long term eating plan.
