In need of some foody advice please!!

Hi everyone,

I have been doing this for about 6 weeks now when i started doing the insanity workout (although not following the food plan).

At first being naiive i didnt realise the 1200 calories My fitness pal set me to was meant to be net, so i was burning on average 500 - 800 calories maybe 4 days a week and not eating back those calories. Low and behold 3/4 weeks in my weight loss had slowed right down, i was starting to feel extremely tired, dizzy at times and very un motivated!

Once reading through a few posts on here and finding "in place of road map" i followed the link to fit to fat website and worked out all the bits as advised. I now aim for 1652 calories a day. I am feeling much more motivated and have the energy to do my workouts.

I am still however struggling with my food, i am making the 1652 calorie goal in food most days and ignoring my exercise calories burned (as these are as i read it already incorportated in the exercise i entered when i worked it out on fit to fat) I have changed my percentages to 40% carbs 30% fat & 30% protein but really struggling to keep my protein up and my carbs & fat down without having some really random meals!

My diary is open to read if anyone wants a look but as an example to get the balance about right today for lunch i have smoked salmon & cream cheese (light) on a tortilla wrap, 2 boiled eggs and 2 chicken thighs (prepacks with skin in a glaze).

I would be really grateful if anyone could tell me:

1. how to keep my protein up as this always seems to be where im lacking?
2. any good recipe meal ideas for lunch (things that i can pack up and take to work ideally, there is a microwave too if needed)
3. is my diary looking like it should be for consistant weight loss?
4. how long after changing to higher calories (about a week ago) should i wait before expecting to see weight loss again?

Its also worth mentioning because of my busy lifestyle and son to look after the majority of my exercise is done at night after 9pm so i eat around 7pm most nights after work and to let dinner go down before jumping around. I then find after my exercise i want something sweet - usually chocolate. I try to avoid this but i wonder if this is doing any harm as its immediately after exercise?

Any feedback greatly appreicated, i feel most of my days are consumed trying to get the right balance!
