As a nutrition and dietetics major, I'd say you're on the right track. I also have a few pointers for you as well. First off, there is no fruit in that diet. On average, one person needs 1 1/2 cups of fruit a day. Instead of eating cashews or porkskins in the evening, try grabbing a piece of fruit instead. Cashews and porkskins are both high in saturated fat and the evening is the most crucial time of day to eat healthy! Also as a snack, if you don't have any fruit on hand, try eating a 100-calories prepackaged snack. It can give you something a little chocolatey but in the right portion size!

what about fruits?

You are eating way too much protein and no fruit for Vit C.
Pork skins are pure fat.

add a green salad to the dinner with almonds in it
water
