you may loose weight to quickly, so you need to make sure you have a whole meal for dinner at least, so you won't end up going anerexic. Hope this helped.

Let's compare it to the food pyramid
Fruits: You need 2-3 serviings, which you hav(banana, apple cantelop)
Veggies: Green beens and corn
Meats and Beans (protein): Chicken, peanut butter, try introducing nuts (almonds, peanuts etc, eggs)
Grains: 3 oz min, 5 oz max
- You have bread. You need more, try introducing pasta, rice, oatmeal, popcorn, crackers etc.
Milk products - Hm, maybe the shake? You need some more calcium building.
Healthy wise, you're dong good. Add more meats/beans - almonds/peanuts make a great snack throughout the day, add pretzels to add another grain product (look, a homemade trailmix) and introduce more milk products.

For a whole day, i think that its a little under a "reasonable" amount. Most of your energy comes from the fat in meat and if you don't get enough of it, it could seriously affect your health later on. You don't decide when you should eat or stop eating, your body does. If your hungry and you don't eat, you're only starving yourself. If the diet fails and you start to eat more than you do now, your body won't be able to take it in and throw it up instead. This would make it extremely hard for your body to function properly. So therefore, i think that you should add a little more meat and poultry to your diet.
