Filling 200 calories dinner?

I'd go for a brisk walk! For 300 calories you can have a pretty decent salad with tuna or chicken.0

You could do tuna with avocado. The avocado takes the place of mayo and adds flavor as well. I use it with both tuna and chicken, add spices and dig in. Eat it with celery, tomatos or cucumber slices to satisfy the need to chew on something.0

some veal cutlets on a grill, that would be lean and delicious.0

Light Multi-grain English Muffin, 1 turkey-sausage link and 1 egg. < 200 calories and full of protein.0

It used to be easy, but the last few months have been tough. Willpower issues aside (that used to be much easier too), I have a lot of days when I'm just totally starving, even when I make good choices. Heck it's very rare that I don't get 5+ servings of fruit and veggies and I pretty much always eat 110g of protein. I've upped the intensity of my workout by quite a bit in the last month so that's probably why (but I haven't lost much more weight so I don't think it's a case of eating too little).
The good news is that my binge didn't leave me very hungry so 2 servings of green beans and the light tuna was more than enough, and it only came up to 155 calories.
gurl. the struggle is real. I dropped down to this weight last year- minus 5 more pounds without even really trying- I bulked all winter- and now I'm hovering at 160.. and I can't get back down. decision making is harder this year for me as well- partly due to the set up at work- and my kitchen at my new place- it's smaller- so little things- they change and have a big impact.
BUT. this is the way of it- nothing is ever ALL PROGRESS ALL THE TIME. Nothing about this is EVER linear- even your will power.
Success comes from riding this out- through the easy and difficult times- and there will be stretches where EVERYTHING feels difficult- and there will be stretches when you ALWAYS feel hungry.
it is what it is- keep at it. keep tweaking ONE thing at a time and waiting- it's a hard thing to do- but I have faith in you!!! Just realize you aren't the only one- this is quiet normal. And it's totally okay.
LOVE this, so I'm going to repeat it:
