“Looks great!! I love that you included lean proteins like turkey and cheddar. These will help keep you full until your next meal and support your weight loss goals. The whole wheat bread and crackers are great choices too as they provide fiber to keep you satisfied. Feel free to add some additional vegetables to your sandwich. Keep up the great work!”
