    Good job! I almost always pack my own lunch and I eat a lot of the same things. I don't care - as long as it gets me and keeps me at goal. Also, I think 2 ounces of protein at lunch is sufficient - the smaller I get, the less of everything I get to have - it seems to satiate me. I'll have 3 to 4 ounces of protein at dinner.

    Yep the meal sizes are for my 1200 calorie diet. I do eat back more protein calories on days and/or day after I do muscle workouts.

    The chicken calories came from an mfp search, grilled or baked chicken breast.

    Many MFP user-provided entries are wrong. You have to be careful.

    It works for me. Its set at 1200 but should probably be at 1300 simply based on my daily activity, so I still lose if I have a fee more calories. You do have to sometimes tinker with mfp I agree.
