Not a bad menu, but it seems like your haveing trouble parting from the low fat, low cal way of eating. To succeed the most at LC you actually need a lot of fat in your diet, your body won't burn your own fat untill you jump start it and force it to burn fat by eating mostly fat. You also shold try to have at least 1200 calories a day or your body thinks it's starving and won't give up andy stored fat. Try adding some more cheese, cream cheese, butter, olive oil, mayo, etc.
Vegetables are deffinitely reccommended, but you need to watch the carbs. The first two weeks you should only have a small salad and a medium serving of vegies every day. Either of those have about 3-5 carbs. You will also get some carbs from the cheese and from your fiber cereal (which I would be very careful with), and you shouldn't go over 20 a day (subtract the fiber from the carb count on the cereal and vegies). The lowest carb vegies are broccoli, cauliflower, asparagus, egg plant, cucumber, greens. Squash, peppers, and green beans are a little higher, but still okay.

Hope that helps, good luck!!!

Thanks for the great advise, I see your sign where it says love wearing that bikini, I was able to wear one last year, people say OH MY GOD I WISH I LOOKED LIKE YOU, but when I look at me I see a fat belly, what are some of your meals you eat on a daily basis, and how did you get into the BIKINI

Princess,

You don't seem to realize that you are in a LOW CARB forum.

I have looked at some of your other posts, and you do not appear to have done any reading about low carb eating. Your "advice" to Colorcube and your "Carbohydrate Information" post are way off the mark. Other newbies probably do not realize that you are as unfamiliar with low carbing as they are.

Please stick around and learn about low carb eating -- but you need to read a lot more and get some accurate information.

Good luck.
