    Mini chocolate chip cookie (28 calories)
    Hand full of nuts (80 calories)

    Great work getting started on here "GettingThin"!!!!...just a little note to help you along....add a little protein to your meals...i didn't see any on your menu and everything listed gets turned into sugar (all those starches plus the things that are simple sugars)....protein is your friend so enjoy it (especially when you have carbs)!
