Planning Your Meals
Posted: May 25th, 2007, 2:27 am
If we are taking the 1300-calorie everyday to reduce a pound a week, we can distribute it like this:
Breakfast: 300 calories (A large bagel with a tablespoon of cream cheese)
Lunch: 400 calories (Half of a club sandwich and a bowl of chicken noodle soup)
Dinner: 500 calories(Medium pork chop, a cup of mashed potatoes, some
fresh veggies, and a side salad )
Evening Snack: 100 calories ( fresh apple, much on two cups of air-popped popcorn, or treat yourself to a small scoop of ice cream or half a bar of fine dark chocolate)
By planning out your meals in advance, you can ensure that you get a good, balanced diet that is full of the vitamins and nutrients you need, without going over your calorie limits.
