I need some inspiration!

Hey everyone!
So I'm new to dieting I'm aiming to lose 70lbs and am currently eating around 1200 calories a day (though I'm not afraid to creep up to 1500 but 1200 is my ideal)

I was just wondering if anyone has any recipes or meal ideas that are quick and easy, low in calories, not too expensive and actually fill me up and are nice to eat! This could be breakfast lunch or dinner or even snacks! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks - also feel free to add me I'm new here!!! Xx

    Whole wheat turkey wraps. 1 tbsp fat free greek yogurt mixed with a pinch of salt, pepper and 1 tsp curry powder. Spread on two whole-wheat wraps, add turkey breast, iceburg lettuce and half a sliced pear on each. Filling and delicious!

    i don't follow it to a T but she sure did inspire me to make a change which I successfully have/work for every day.
