OK...I did pretty well today, but woke up late and ended up getting a sausage, egg, and cheese biscuit from McDonalds. That was my only pitfall. How does this sound for my first full day tomorrow?

Breakfast (about 7:30):

4 egg whites (I only eat the whites...I like them better than whole eggs)

1/2 cup sliced mushrooms (cooked in 1 tsp olive oil)

One small slice of 2% cheddar cheese (didn't have low-fat or fat-free at my grocery store)

Morning Snack (about 9:45):

Walnuts (I eat until I am full, but not a whole portion)

Morning Snack #2: (about 11:15):

Light String Cheese

Lunch (around 1:30):

Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad (is restaurant Caesar ok?)

or

Tuna Salad (just 1 tablespoon of mayo and one can of Starkist Chunk Light Tuna in Water) on Iceberg Lettuce

Afternoon Snack (about 3:30):

One celery stick

1 wedge of Laughing Cow Cheese

Dinner (about 6:30-7:00):

Chicken breast

Black beans

1 Sugar-free fudgesicle

Evening Snack (about 9:00):

3 egg whites (DH and I work out late at night and eat this after our workout)

Exercise (Monday-Friday):

30-45 minutes of walking/running on the treadmill

30 minutes of weight training

Exercise (Saturday):

1 hour of outdoor "exercise" (heavy gardening, walking the dog, walking with a friend, etc).

Sunday will be my rest day.

Thanks for all of your help. I'm just starting out (again). I've been a lurker on here for a while, but I hope to be more active soon. I've already received a lot of good advice just from reading the posts.

Also, here are my stats: 5'6" and 185 pounds.

Your menu sounds great.
