Seems right to me, although I am not use to eating so healthy and I should!. That has everything u need!.!.!.!.!.!.Fruit, protein, dairy and bread!. You could add a veggies like carrot sticks or raw broccoli or cauliflower or cucumbers or tomato to that meal u described!. Water with lemon to drink!. The rest of the day you could add a few crackers and cheese and some berries or mandarin oranges or pineapple to your salad!. A piece of fruit to that breakfast but all in all it's good!Www@FoodAQ@Com
so, you figure that a slice of bread is enough grains for the day!? a few leaves enough vegatable!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
ask her to get you some V-8 Juice and drink a couple glasses of that each day to help add veggies to your dietWww@FoodAQ@Com
In my family we normally have small dinners, or no dinner at all!. If you eat a ehavy dinner at night, your organism will happily store any extra calories in your body!.
The cheese and crackers have fat-during the daytime you normal just burn it off!. While what you're eating isn′t completely unhealthy, I wouldn't eat it every since night, since the fat in the cheese may actually catch up to you!.
You could try a sandwitch (stick the ham and anything else you might like between two slices of bread), a salad, a fruit salad or soup!. As long at it's small and doesn't have many calories, I think it's ok; your body is getting ready to go to sleepy anyhow and will likely try to store any calories it can!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
