Resolved Question: Is this a good, healthy way to lose weight?

I am 5'10" and weigh 168 pounds. I have tried diets ranging from slim-fast to atkins. Then I have come to the realization that it's about lifestyle change since I can't stick to anything in particular. I need advice....the way I'm currently eating seems to be helping and I have started working out 6 days a week for about 30 minutes a day. One of my co-workers doesn't seem to think I'm consuming enough calories and acts overly concerned. Here is a sample menu: Breakfast - 2 lowfat banana nut muffins w/coffee Snack - Yoplait Light Yogurt Lunch - Ham, Turkey, or Roasted Chicken on whitewheat bread with miracle whip, lettuce and tomato Baked Lays Chips Snack - Small apple or grapes Dinner: For dinner, I always try to have a variety so that I don't get bored. If I'm tired, I'll just heat up a lean cuisine or healthy choice w/added veggies . When I cook, I try to bake vs. fry my food and always add fresh veggies/salad to each meal. Any opinions on what I may need additionally? more
