Answer #1

I’m not a nutritionist, so I can’t comment on the balance (but it looks pretty good), however you will need about half again as many calories for good health. Maybe some fresh fruit and yogurt as another snack. Eating 4 times a day helps keep away binge eating. Good Luck!! (And I think I’ll try your hamburger mixture. Sounds good.)
