Day 1 Breakfast.

You have no Protein in there. Add something like Eggs, Lean Ham, Chicken, Turkey, Peanuts, etc etc.

If you do that, give the Banan about 10-15 minutes to digest, as the Protein source will inhibit the digestion to some extent, as most Fruits don't mix too well in the Stomach.

Morning snack. Have one. Protein source and Carbs.

Lunch, caloreis are too high. Ditch the Tortillas, increase the Broccoli, and limit to around 350-400 calories. I doubt you need more than that.

Aftnernoon snack. If the Bars are Fruit based, and I believe so, the Fruit won't digest properly as explained earlier, and teh calories, (90), is too low for an afternoon snack.

You need easy foods for snacks, like Nuts, Peanuts, Whole-grain Bread, Low Fat Cheese, bits of Meat, etc etc, so have a Protein and Carbs srouce, and don't drop below 250 calories. Don't need to exceed 350.

Dinner. Too much Protein and too many calories.

Don't bother with the milk, or you'll be getting Enzyme City in your Stomach, adding that in as well. Eat about 50% of the Turkey and 25% of the Cheese, as your Meal is too fatty, then you could triple the Bean portion for instance.

I would add another snack in about 2-3 hours after Dinner. Don't need more than 250 calories here I think. No less than 150 though.


Day 2

Breakfast, same deal with the Banana, if the Yoghurt contains Fruit forget it. Go for either a low sugar Pro-biotic, or have a Nut or Plain yoghurt.

Same advice with the Snack and Lunch.

Baked Lays, don't know what that is.

Stroganov sounds fine.

Evening snack, should be added here as per day 1.


Day 3

Breakfast

Add your Egg Whites in and same advice for Banana and Yoghurt.

Morning snack, same advice. Got to be there.

Don't need the Eggs and Chicken, so forget the Eggs. You've already had the Whites for Breakfast. Not sure why you're using 2 Tomato types for Lunch, but you could if possible try to get Yellow or Orange ones, as the Lycopene source is better.

Post-workout snack isn't bad.

Dinner looks fine, but still not sure why the 2 types of Tomatos.

Evening snack, same deal as the other days. Got to be there, but doesn't need to be more than 250 calories. Should be at least 150 though.
