Question: Frank P. is a 48-year-old landscape architect recently diagnosed with hypoglycemia from a glucose tolerance blood test. He is 69 inches tall and weighs 202 pounds. His usual weight is 190 pounds; he reports an unexpected weight gain of 12 pounds over the past 6 months. Frank reports he often skips breakfast or stops for a donut and coffee on his way to work in the morning. He often eats out with clients for lunch or he grabs a fruit smoothie on his way to a job site. He eats dinner at home with his wife most evenings. He reports feeling hungry, weak, and "anxious" on many occasions during his work day, which he says is relieved somewhat by eating a candy bar or other high-sugar snack food. His diet history reveals no food intolerances although he states he avoids products which contain high-fructose corn syrup and prefers to use products sweetened with sugar.

Question: Based on his lifestyle patterns, devise a one-day meal plan for Frank that will help alleviate his symptoms of hypoglycemia that includes at least 130 grams of carbohydrates and 20-35 grams of fiber. (provide information for 3 meals and at least 2 snacks - these meals must be healthy, balanced and conform to the following guidelines / all food suggestions must include the portion size and number of grams of carbs and fiber the food provides )
