This is the guide that I usually use for eating:
Breakfast (suggested 6:30 a.m.)
4 to 5 servings of fruit (eat 2 or 3 different types every day)
1-2 servings of whole-grain cereal (oatmeal, multi-grain, or homemade granola) with 2 tablespoons freshly ground flax seed and one or two tablespoons ground toasted (no salt) pumpkin seeds (2 tablespoons pumpkin seeds can be eaten whole if preferred)
Whole grain bread or toast, if desired.
(2-4 times per week) 1 serving (1/4 cup) English walnuts or almonds or 1-2 servings whole-grain bread with natural peanut butter or other nut butter
Lunch (suggested 12:30 p.m.)
Large salad
Raw or cooked vegetables (eat different types every day)
Starches (boiled or baked white potatoes or sweet potatoes, whole-grain brown rice, or whole-grain pasta)
Protein food [legumes (beans or lentils), sandwich made with a nut butter or hummus, or soy product such as meat alternatives or tofu]
Dinner (suggested 5:30 or 6 p.m.)
1 or 2 servings fruit
May also have, only if needed, 1-2 slices whole wheat bread or toast without margarine. Toast may have blended fruit spread if desired, which counts as a fruit serving.

I'm vegan, so its different if you are going to include meats in your diet. I still suggest following this at least a couple times a week to detox your system. The link below is were i got the diet from, you should read the page even if your not vegan, its got a few useful tips. Good luck on eating healthier, there is a LOT of junk out there that looks healthy but really isnt. just remember, the more natural, the better.

You could eat lots of salads with very light or no dressing at all. Snack foods like broccoli and cauliflower, apples and peanut butter, crackers with cheese, and of course, lots of fruit. Cut down on your meat - you only need around 2 to 4 oz everyday - which you can get protein from eggs and chicken and fish are really healthy as long as they aren't fried.

Spinach w/ tomato. Salads only add a pinch of salt and vinegar. Or if not eat grapes, tomatoes, apples, oranges, and mandarins. Try to do push ups for 3 days every day. Drink lots of water and you will be healthy and strong. BTW drink lots of milk.
