Food Choices Matter in a Big Weigh - The 1,810 Calorie Menu

The intention of this menu is to demonstrate the power of food choices.  This menu is based on the Diet Bites Food Comparison Chart below using the maximum daily servings allowed.  The chart contains a little over 1,800 calories and again is intended to illustrate the power of food choices.  However, the menu can be used while dieting and can easily be adjusted to meet your calorie needs.  The calorie content for all the foods on the menu is listed on the chart below.
 
Click here for Chart 2 which weighs in at a hefty 3,590 calories.  Besides the big gap in calories, the only difference in the charts is that one incorporates foods that contain less calories.  We used the same maximum daily servings allowed on both charts.  Here is our menu for Chart 1 - the 1,810 calorie diet menu.

Breakfast:

1 cup of skimmed milk
1/2 grapefruit sprinkled with Splenda
1 serving of oatmeal using Splenda to sweeten; add no calorie butter spray and a bit of the skimmed milk
*2 slices of toast with no calorie butter spray
