Or rather, it's not healthy unless you put all the work into it finding all the healthy vegetarian items and healthy combinations that supply what you need.
Try COMPLEX carbs. And I don't mean potatoes or white bread. I mean HEAVY multi-grain bread, whole grain pasta, brown rice, etc. Add peanut butter and/or meat for protien. :)
Sugar takes me down a notch or three, that's for sure.Luck...
