That looks good. The only thing I would worry about is the ketchup (a lot of commercial ketchups have high fructose corn Syrup which my surgeon is adamant that we avoid).

This is somewhat of a treat. I personally usually use only seasoning and no Condiments. For this occasions where only a burger will do, this is the hack I've found. Maybe an organic ketchup?

Nice. I like your thinking, it will serve you well in your journey :)

I actually have a list of substitutes for cravings which I go to when I get the urge to eat something from my previous life. I has saved me many times.
