Is this menu ok for Phase 1?
| Wed, 05-09-2007 - 9:58am |
Hi everyone! I'm planning to start Phase 1 on Monday, and I'm working on some menus for myself (I'm a planner, ha ha). Can anyone tell me if this looks ok for Phase 1?
Breakfast - two boiled eggs with a tsp of trans fat free margerine (is salt allowed?)
Snack - low fat cheese string
Lunch - lots of mixed greens with chicken breast, veggies and a v8
Snack - celery with natural peanut butter
Dinner - Salmon with grilled zucchini and green beans, glass of skim milk
Snack - sf fugsicle

Hi,
Welcome!
Salt is fine on South Beach unless your doctor has restricted you. Your menu looks good. The only thing I see is that you should have another dairy serving. Cheese is counted as a protein on South Beach. Only milk & yogurt count towards your dairy requirement.
Planning is a good thing. You'll do fine if you keep at the planning. Good Luck and let us know if you have any questions.
