lunch=grilled chicken minus the bun, letuce mexican cheese, and ranch sald, and for dinner i had two scrambled eggs, and i cooked some ham.
help me please | You don't write quantities, but you should be eating maximum 3-4 oz of cheese per day. You should also eat 3 cups of vegetables -- maximum one from the "Other Vegetables" list and the rest from the "Salad Vegetables" list. I'm not sure how many cups you are eating at the moment.
But if you do the cheese and the veggies parts right, then your menu looks great.

"The truth is that temptation lurks everywhere, unless you deny yourself a social and working life and the attendant pleasures of eating out. I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource.
Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"
