Good nutrition simply means is to eat sensibly from the foods that contain all the vitamins, minerals, and other things you need to keep your body fit and strong and not be overweight. It means eating the right foods from the basic food groups that contain fruit and vegetables; protein foods, bread and cereal foods, and the last food group are the dairy products.

Pretty much all vegetables are good. Some have a little more calories than others but generally they have few calories and lots of fiber. Also, if you like bread or pasta, try to eat whole wheat and make sure they don't just "contain" wheat but actually are whole wheat. They not only have fiber and less processed grains, but whole wheat has been found to have other health benefits as well. Try to drink plenty of fluids but not juice or soda. Drink water, and if you don't like just plain water, drink flavored seltzer waters that don't have calories or very few.
