hey all,

I'm nikki and i am 27..i have done weight watchers in the past and it is a great plan however i dont have the money to join right now and still afford the healthy food LOL..so thought i would try calorie counting for a while and see how it go's

here is my meal plan for tomorrow...let me know if i am doing this right

Breakfast: cereal w/ milk: 310
apple ( hmm have to look that up im guessing around 90 cals though)

Snack: special k bar ( 90 )

Lunch: chicken cordon bleu (350)
carrots (35)

snack: 100 cal pack

Dinner: Lean cuisine (300)
apple (90??)

Dessert: SF Pudding ( 60)

total of about 1460

Sounds pretty good. I would try to throw one more veggie in at dinner, maybe a leafy green salad unless your lean cuisine has veggies in it. I would also add some protein for bfast, maybe a couple of egg whites.

I'd add in another fruit or two it can be something small like a clementine they are only 35 cals. or a small banana for 60 cals... etc.

and then 2 veggies like baby carrots or cucumber slices, grape tomatoes what ever you like..

and I agree about throwing in some protein for breakfast you could put some peanut butter with your apple slices or a boiled egg, or banana

Welcome.Looks like you are on the right track.Start with you plan.You can always tweak things as you go but the first step is starting.Good luck.
