    don't make yourself crazy

    go over your fat with a 98% fat free ground turkey burger

    decide to plan your whole day's food ahead of time from now on so you can change your breakfast and lunch if you need to

    Tuna has almost no fat. Wrap some bread around it and you have pretty much just carbs, protein and sodium.

    When you add your exercise to your diary it gives you more fat. You could go have a nice brisk walk or hit the gym before dinner.
    I got an extra 16g for my workout this morning.

    likewise chicken breast has almost no fat either (basically 1g unsaturated, which is nill). Have that with some mashed cauliflower (mixed with garlic powder, fat free feta cheese, skim milk), and a sweet potato (don't eat the skin), and you have a great meal, with about 1.5 grams of fat total and ALL of it unsaturated fat, which is the good kind! Plus you get plenty of great vitamins and minerals, all the protein you would need, and a healthy amount of good complex carbs.

    I would probably just have a nice big salad and add chick peas (garbanzo) or other beans to get some protein in there too.

    Mashed potatoes are my favorite food, and I've pretty much had to abondon them to lose weight. I'm excited to try this as an alternative.
