So this is what I have so far, based on the chart that we refer to here on the board. Each day on P2, we are allowed:
Lean Protein: unlimited
Vegetables: unlimited, min 4.5 cup per day
Fruit: 1-3 per day
Starch (1/2 c): 1-3 per day
Milk/Yogurt: 2 cups per day
Fat: (oil or mayo) 1 tsp per meal
Water: Min 8 oz with each meal & snack
Where does cheese fit in? What about salad dressings? Should I have a separate condiment category, or are they unlimited as long as they fit within the criteria? Any other minimums or maximums I should include?
I know this is a bit beyond what most people want to do on SBD, but I'm trying to get a system to fall back on when I go off track. I'm sick of returning to P1, and I don't want to go back to WW, so this is my compromise. :)
Thanks for any input you guys may have!

Salad dressings and all condiments have one simple guideline:
What about beans? Are they ever an issue with eating too many? Seems like it's normally a matter of not eating enough! ;-)
I already saw where you asked this question elsewhere, and I already answered it there.
Maybe the Phase 2 Meal Planner will help you.
