The only thing I immediately disagree with is your recommendation of avoiding beans. While they have starch, they are a great source of fiber (for that feeling of fullness and digestive regularity) and slow-burning carbs (for energy).

It's pretty hard to maintain energy throughout the day just with your "good" list and maintain some sort of digestive regularity.

If you get sick of beans, drown them in some Safeway brand salsa or a dap of lowfat sour cream plus some Sriracha sauce.

Anyway, great project, even if it only inspires one other person. That should be reward enough.
