Yes, the bread is crazy and it spikes your carbs, maybe next time do one piece? <br /><br />Also, I suggest you cut back to 1/2 a banana with this breakfast and add 2 hard boiled eggs to that fruit salad snack. And if lunch and dinner were not too far apart then not having an afternoon snack is ok. <br /><br />*Aim for your meals to be 350-400 calories and your snacks to be around 200-250.Charlie Limahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17075850186375194105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8507137273600589458.post-24948221451703031932011-04-08T04:12:02.535-05:002011-04-08T04:12:02.535-05:00Maria - it looks right on, good job!
