Sure there is lots of calories in fruit (you do eat alot of fruit) but there's alot of sugar(fructose). Chocolate bars have zero nutriental value to them just more sugar.
As I see it you are only getting protein from 1 chicken breast, I think that's like 20g of protein. The yogurt and milk do have protein, but more fat than anything else.
You need to eat more protein and carbs. If you find it hard to eat, well then maybe get some shakes and drink the calories.
Red meat (steak,hamburger) have a lot of protein / fat. Eat that with a potatoe or rice and veg.
Chicken, fish or turkey are very lean, but high in protein. Always have some type of carb with your protein.
Vegtables are good to eat. So is fruit, but you can have too much of one thing and not enough of another.
this might help, you decide.

Lyle M: Well, intensive training depletes liver glycogen quickly because of the hormonal response. That means that, depending on diet, length of your workout, etc. you are entering a systemically catabolic state as you come out of the workout because of the shift in liver metabolism. Correcting that and returning to an anabolic, state is part of overall recovery and growth.
Now, while glucose is the main fuel for muscle glycogen (quite in fact, fructose can't be taken into the muscle cell, there's no transporter), it doesn't do a very good job of replacing liver glycogen. 80% or more of ingested glucose goes straight through the liver, to get to the muscle. Fructose, on the other hand is primarily liver fuel. Now, I know that a lot of people have made an issue of how *excess* fructose converts to triglycerides and this is an issue with massive amounts (which you see in the general public because of too much sucrose and high fructose corn syrup intake). But you don't see problems until you get to like 50-60 grams per day, which is actually quite a bit (an average piece of fruit may have 7 grams of fructose). It's simply a non-issue for most people.
