Late dinner

Tomorrow I have plans to see a movie and then a late dinner. I'm used to eating dinner really early (I have young kids and we start our day early). This will be 3 or 4 hours later than I'm used to. I'm trying to figure out how to plan my meals tomorrow so that I won't already be starving by the time the movie starts (way before dinner). I know I'll figure it out. Or eat something before the movie and either eat less at dinner or just go over my calories. I just wanted to vent.

    How many calories do you have? Can you maybe have some vegetable soup or something before you leave? Enough too fill you up but not many calories.

    I have 1200 calories (I'm 4'11 and close to goal--but majorly stalled). Any other day I would have plenty of exercise to increase calories around 1400 or 1500 but Saturday happens to be the one rest day (hubby lets me sleep in Saturdays so I forfeit working out).

    Yeah I will probably eat something light like soup or maybe even oatmeal beforehand. Or if I'm starving I'll eat more at home and just plan on snacking at the restaurant since I don't like to eat a lot so close to bedtime (not weight loss related, just a digestive issue)
