DIET, DIET, DIET is all i ever hear of now days (no offence or anything)
I read this up on the internet, and it said exactly this:
Diets NEVER EVER EVER work. They just make you feel more cautious about your image. Just be yourself and who cares about what other people say or look, you are you and you should be happy with just that.
Sorry if this sounded offensive to you or anything, it just that i do not want to see another person going on a diet.

Everyones diet will vary depending on their activity level, weight, needs (i.e. are you looking to slim down, bulk up, or stay where you are) etc.
The only answer to give here that is general enough to fulfill all the criteria is "a balanced diet". This means no diets that eliminate macronutrients (like no carb or no fat diets for example). The most common recommendation these days seems to be a 40-40-20 distribution of calories between protein- carbs- fats (where protein and carbs have 4 calories per gram and fats have 9).
Generally avoid saturated fats, things with sugar added to them, processed foods etc. Eat plenty of veggetables and drink a lot of water.
If you are looking to lose weight, eat 500 cals or so below what you burn. If you are looking to bulk you need a calorie surplus.
In general terms, as you have phrased this question, thats about all I can say.
