If you are using cottage cheese for just a protein it needs to be 3/4 cup of nonfat or lowfat cottage cheese. If you don't like the taste add your own fruit to it and count in as a protein and a fruit.

Your bread will count as 1.5 starches.

I hope this info helped!

This one looks okay to me. As long as your rice cakes are about 50-60 cal or less each.
If i were you i would stay away from cottage-cheese...too much sodium and caused a lot of boating for me.

Some good examples of veggie protein are beans( washed thoroughly if canned),1% milk, fat-free plain yogurt, soy milk( plain), allegro cheese( 11 g of protein , 1 g fat per 30 gm), lite ricotta, fat free cheese singles, liquid egg whites/substitutes, ground soy or soy burgers, veggie burgers.

I would advice against nuts in the weight loss phase...they have way too much fat than protein. I eat nuts once in a while these days because i am on stabilization.

It is best to stick to foods that you know for sure...how many fat, st etc...a known is better than unknown

3 cups of snap peas - 3 veggies
4 large rice cakes - 2 st
2 cups strawberries/1/4 cup ricotta - 2 fruit, 1 dairy

By breakdown, it means how many calories, protein, fat, carbs and fiber are in one serving of an item.

Sounds good...just a reminder...
Raw Spinach - 2 cup = 1 V
Lettuce or other green leafy stuff - 3 cup = 1 V

If you lack enough veggies in your diet...you might lack fiber and suffer bloating or irregularity...i can speak from experience
