These look good, but with the addition of the carbs (bread and cornmeal), the sugars in the ketchup and teriyaki sauce and the two oils, I probably would get sick from them. My plan sticks to a 5-5-5- combo..... no more than 5 g sugar, 5 grams fat and over 5 grams protein per serving. I try to avoid processed carbs (bread, pasta, potatoes, rice, etc) completely as they will make you crave more bad carbs. You can get all your good carbs from veggies and a little fruit...... If you can find replacements or omit some of these you might be better off....ie. pam rather than oil in your pan......skip the breadcrumbs or try adding maybe crumbled tofu....that might work.......
