Spent some time trying to balance the macros for some meal options.  I know, the lunch is more of a snack, and the snack is more of supper, but there ya go...... I just needed them more balanced. I know, the choc chips ought to be homemade, but I only recently found a good recipe for gyros...., I'm sure I'll need a recipe for chocolate, but I haven't found it yet, and I'm not going to use such a recipe this week anyway.......:

Following Tom Venuto's recommendations for overall calories (while ascribing to a 4 meal a day mindset) would result in an average of 500 calorie meals for me, four times a day, each with 62.5 grams of carbs, 37.5 grams of protein, and 11.11 grams of fat:

50 calories from carbs:             12.5    grams carbs
30 calories from protein:            7.5    grams protein
20 calories from fat:                2.222  grams fat

250 calories from carbs:            62.5    grams carbs
150 calories from protein:          37.5    grams protein
100 calories from fat:              11.11   grams fat
