Ok, so here I am having wasted too many calories on stupid birthday cake this afternoon because I'm a greedy piggy!! I need some idea's of what I can have for my evening meal, something filling and tasty that only takes about 200 calories. I know there isn't really anything like that and if there was I probably wouldn't have it in, but just thought I'd ask. Wish I could fit some exercise in to my busy life, but it's impossible these days, I used to enjoy my exercise regime before and enjoyed eating those additional calories even more :( ..... Help!

    4 oz chicken breast (~100 cals), 1/4 cup brown rice (~75ish cals), and vegetables . Or just have a salad with lean meat. Another option is to just eat what you want and work it off later. As long as you're in a caloric deficit for the week, you'll still lose weight.

    You're not a greedy pig. You're simply human. I'd suggest some form of lean protein mixed with brown rice and veggies.

    I'm with cmeirun. Don't freak out too much. Do your best to have a balanced dinner and make it up throughout the week with healthier diet and a little more exercise.

    Healthy soup or a gigantic salad with some black beans....and stop the negative self-talk.


    P.S. It's been my experience as a CPT over the last 13 years, that EVERYONE can fit some exercise into their day, even if it's 10 minutes at a time.

    Man, I'd hate to hear the names you'd call me.

    (Seriously, eat normally and eat right tomorrow.)

    Trouble is, it's every bloomin' day, hence I've put a stone back on :cry:

    Since my 2 grandaughter's came to live with me last June, I've really struggled to keep up with my exercise regime. Yes, I'm running around after 2 kids again, probably the reason I've only gained ONE stone, but it's not quite the same thing! With school and nursery runs, appointments, housework and working night shift's, I'm finding it impossible to fit any structured exercise in to my new life style :sad:

    Well, then, knowing what you "should" eat for dinner tonight is not your issue. Think more globally.
