    My suggestion is to include exercise in your day.... then you won't have to worry about the exact calories and can eat more if you're hungry.

    I don't know about exactly 410 calories, but here are some simple ideas:

    Protein:
    Soup, Amy's Kitchen (organic) or Progresso (has high sodium)
    Progresso Lentil soup: 320 calories for 1 large can (2 servings) or 160 for half
    Amy's Thai coconut: (had this tonight): 280 calories for 1 regular size can
    These two companies sell dozens of other soups with similar calories
    Or you could make your own soup -- soup is filling and low calorie

    Vegetables to have with soup:
    Sweet potato: 1 cup 114 calories

    Steamed greens:
    1 cup steamed collards 30 calories
    1 cup steamed kale 34 calories
    1 cup steamed spinach 41 calories

    Snack:
    1/2 ruby red grapefruit: 55 calories
    1 apple: varies, anywhere from 55 calories for a small to 100 or so for a large

    410 seems awfully precise! You'll have difficulty weighing and measuring to such accuracy.

    But there's loads of meals around 400 - what do you fancy?

    3 XL egg omelette with sweet potato and mushrooms, and a salad with leaves, capsicum, tomato, cucumber, celery.

    Chicken, brown rice, sauteed veggies, and a yummy sauce.
    Omelette filled with whatever you like and a piece of whole grain toast...or gluten free bread.
    AppleGrove all natural beef hot dog, whole wheat bun, sweet potato chips, and a flavored coconut water if you're feeling frisky. ;)

    No. I would do some exercise and eat more.
  • Thanks all! I ended up eating a lean cuisine meal and having a cup of unsweetened almond milk.
