I am trying to do the thing where you put your meals in in advance, how does tomorrow look so far for me? I don't know what I am having for dinner yet, but with the rest of the day it looks like I have quite a bit of wiggle room. Let me know your thoughts please.
Of course, my diary is open, so look at tomorrow please.

I looked at the last couple days and looks really good. Only recommendation I would make is to try to add more protein to the mix. You can actually go into your Goals and do Custom and change the Macro %'s (Carb, Protein, Fat) to something more balanced such ad 40%/40%/20% or 40%/30%/30%. Some good protein sources that are lower in carb:
Protein powders (make a smoothie with frozen fruit and 1% milk)
Protein bars (lots of options...look for 15+g of Protein)...also a good calorie filler if you're coming up short as most are 200+ calories and MANY of them taste like candy bars (and some are glorified candy bars). Cliff Builder, I believe Kashi may have some, EAS (I use these), and even the Atkins bars are a good option.
Cottage Cheese
Greek Yogurt (regular too but Greek has 2x's)
Deli meats (go low sodium whenever possible)0 -
I looked at today and ya definitely need more protein. Stuff like the poster above me said is amazing-my personal favorites are cottage cheese and greek yogurt! Ya need to boost your calories a little more too. Personally, I would recommend eating about your BMR! I know I was set on 1200 calories for 6 months and dropped 40 pounds pretty quick, but then halted until just this month, after I upped my calorie intake and changed my workouts. 3 month long plateaus suck! Avoid them as much as you can!0
