I'm petit and have a lot of weight to lose, but my calorie goal is pretty low (1250).

I have a hard time coming up with ideas for meals, seeing as that's only about 350 calories a meal for me (if i want snacks). For lunch I do a lot of lean cuisines or soup and salads. For dinner I like to eat a little more but don't want to do lean cuisines for both lunch and dinner. I need some great low cal ideas for dinners where I can eat a little more but not go over the calorie amount of 350 -450 cals.

Anybody have any good ideas or open food diarys I could look at? The only foods I will not eat are eggs, and seafood.

Thanks!

    I too have the same problem. Just found out I insulin resistant, so I have to follow a low
    carb diet. I am trying to stay at 1250 calories. My problem is that I am having trouble getting
    enough calories. So I am looking for higher calorie-low carb foods to help.
