    Lots of veggies!!! And you could also have some healthy life toast in order to get some carbs in you too.

    I'd add a workout so I'd have more calories to use, if you have time. If not, what she said

    I had progresso light vegetable soup today for lunch and it was only 120 for the whole can. and i thought it taste good too. add a jello as a snack and you will still be fine.

    That is not true. A small raw spear has 2 calories.

    I would work out a little to be able to eat some more calories...that way you won't have to limit yourself and be hungry later.

    also I asparagus does have calories--everything has calories but water... 1 large spear is 4 calories

    I'd just exercise to get the calories back.

    exercise and add some calories back!!!! Eat a huge salad; three cups of salad greens only has 20 to 35 calories, and 3 cups is a huge pile of food!!!

    When that happens to me, I get busy and earn some calories by exercising. Then I get to eat my exercise calories. I love that part!

    I'd do the egg whites scrambled with veggies and topped with salsa. That's my go to low cal meal!!

    go for a quick mile jog.. that'll get you at least 100 more calories.

    its a mere guideline not a rule. over today, under tomorrow. DONT SWEAT IT. trust me, experience speaking here, the minute you begin sweating it, the minute it becomes an obsession, its way unhealthy.

    only water is calorie free but veggies are very low and good quality calories. How is the world did you only end up with 147 for dinner?

    Vegetable soup and a salad will fill you up and be in your calorie range.

    mustard has 0 calories! :happy:

    I suggest chicken breast & veggies. 4 oz. of chicken is a little over 100... definitely agree with asparagus or broccoli.

    Just wondering where you got these stats from cause 4 oz's of chicken breast has 220 cals asparagus 5 spears has 25 so that's 245 cals?


    Anyways here what I ate last night and its about 140 cals. Sharataki noodles, with 2 tbls salsa 1 laughing cow wedge, 50g of pork loin roast. It was very yummy and filling!

    Well thats good news to me better then thinkings its less. that must be 4 oz. raw? I got that off of many different calorie counts I wasn't just throwing out random numbers.

    Eat less during the day.....o yeah, past that point. Kidding - just being a smart *kitten* - I would exercise some more. Cuz asparagus makes your pee smell funny if you eat too much of it.......

    Yea I know.. Its tricky business this counting stuff. I get the skinless boneless chicken breast by perdue. They have them inv. wrapped and are 130 a fillet. I get those for that reason. It is so confusing sometimes!
