Sample meal plan: Part Deux?

Asked by livelaughlove21 (15724points) March 28th, 2013 from iPhone

I posted an admittedly flawed sample daily meal plan about a month ago to get some feedback. I’ve revamped my eating habits lately and decided to try again and see what people think.

I eat similar foods daily still (especially breakfast), but I have been switching up my dinners, so this is just a sample.

Again, I’m a 5’5” female. I started off at 155 lbs and, two weeks later, I’m down to about 151. Meh…I’m looking to get down to about 135 and maintaining that, as well as my new eating habits, for good.

I’m also exercising. Right now I’m only burning about 200 calories on my new stationary bike about 3 times a week, but I’m working my way up.

I’m also drinking at least 4 bottles (8 cups) of water every day.

Breakfast
Homemade oatmeal with ½ cup old fashioned whole grain oats, 1 cup skim milk, a dash if cinnamon and ½ tbsp Splenda brown sugar mix. I eat a banana with this.

Lunch
A package of light tuna in water with 1 tbsp light mayo and 7 garden and herb triscuits.

Snack
2 tangerines (cuties) and 2 slices of pineapple.

Dinner
Baked boneless skinless chicken breast with a 100 calorie pack of guacamole, cooked corn on the cob, and some type of rice/pasta on the side.

Would you consider this an improvement of my last meal plan? It adds up to about 1500 calories. I have a weight loss app called Lose It in which I log my food daily and that’s where I set my daily calorie allowance.

Like I said before, I have an aversion to veggies but I’m trying!
