Also, I am following the nutrition plan. Day 1 consisted of:

Breakfast: egg white mushroom scramble, cup of strawberries and 12 oz non fat milk
snack 1: protein bar
Lunch: green apple & chicken salad
snack 2: 30 pistachios
Dinner: 9.5 oz of chicken (lunch was a bit light), 2.5 cups of broccoli, single multi grain English muffin with no topping.

Also supplemented with recovery drink and a protein drink. You sure don't go hungry on P90X.

If I may offer a critique to that diet plan, it is very outdated and misguided!

Eat the whole egg, including the yolk! and drink vitamin D milk.
Include dark meat chicken
Steam the broccoli and include other veggies like carrots and cauliflower and add real butter and real sea salt!
Skip the 'whole grain' anything and eat very minimal amounts of breads.
Skip the 'protein' drink... synthetic protein is rancid and unhealthy.

The myth that saturated fat is bad for us is simply NOT true! It is essential for our bodies to have that.
Sugars, flours, fillers, processed grains, vegetable oils are bad for us.
