Thanks for mentioning this. I went to a nutritionist back in October of last year, in the hopes of improving my diet - I'm also skinny and am gaining muscle, but I feel like I could be seeing much better results if I fix what I'm eating - and she gave me this complete overhaul of every single meal, and after about six weeks, I gave up. It was too much. I've been feeling guilty about it ever since.
Now I know that even making small changes for the moment are a good step in the right direction.
