Does this seem like a good days menu?

spectrachic311 said: "Looks good...I'd say try to make sure the rice is brown rice and not white rice and maybe try to incorporate some more leafy dark green veggies like spinach and broccoli (they have the most vitamins for the calorie buck) Other than that, looks good to me!"

Razor said: "Unless you just have an adversion to eating pork then you mine as well go with the full fledge good stuff! Regular panfried pork bacon: 4 slices - 145 calories 12g fat 4.4g saturated fat 402mg sodium 8g protein Turkey bacon 4 slices - 140 calories 11g fat 4.0g saturated fat 720mg sodium 8g protein You should probaby do away with both of them. Unless of course you are allowing yourself bad stuff and just accounting for it in your daily intake!"

GreenEyes said: "Your meal plan looks great to me! Turkey bacon is yummmy and four slices is not going to hurt. You need the protein so don't do without. I'm getting to the point were I don't care for deli meats either. They are full of sodium and preservitives. Keep up the great work!"

shandajr said: "I would do without the turkey bacon and go with turkey slices. The bacon has too much sodium. Otherwise it looks good to me."

nicolegreg said: "thanks guys....My thing is I have to keep things in my meal plan that I like...otherwise I will cheat. I have to keep myself happy with what I am eating. But anyways I just needed reassurance that I was on the right track. ;) Oh about the turkey slices...I dont like deli meat that much. I could really do without it."

Cosmopolitan said: "[QUOTE=shandajr]I would do without the turkey bacon and go with turkey slices. The bacon has too much sodium. Otherwise it looks good to me.[/QUOTE] I agree Shandajr's sodium comment. And maybe use brown or long-grain rice (if you would normally use white). Optional: season bland items with Mrs. Dash (Available in lots of flavors and are calorie free, sodium free, and idiot proof! :D I use it on grilled meats, steamed veggies, and even salads) Otherwise the meal plans look great to me. Good balance of all of the food groups with plenty of emphasis on fruits, veggies and whole grains. Sounds yummy and filling too! Enjoy."

skanee said: "hi,im new here but would like to make a suggestion to you. instead of the egg beaters i buy a carton of eggs and just remove the yoke. its cheaper and taste better."
