For me, a tilapia filet, a few stalks of asparagus and a few sweet potato fries; watermelon for dessert. I saw the serving size of the fries were 22- I said no way! I don't need all that lol.

I hardly ever eat dinner and I'm trying to break that habit because that's whats keeping me under my calories (and not in a good way). By 10 pm I am starving but I never feed into the cravings. Before my problem was eating too late, now I hardly eat past 4.

    I came here looking for dinner ideas. I didn't take anything out of the freezer, so I'm thinking something with either tinned tuna (tuna melt with a salad?) or maybe a pasta dish with onions, peppers, zucchini in tomato sauce with a generous amount of cheese to raise the protein levels. (I still have 900 cals to eat today)

    No idea. We're going out to dinner with friends. I'm going to eat light all day so I can really go crazy at the restaurant. Hubby and I might share dessert too.

    Frozen mahi mahi burgers save my life! That's what I had for dinner, along with some spinach sauteed with garlic.

    Pacific brands organic Tomato Soup with Whole Grain and Flax tortilla quesadillas. In the Quesadilla I use tortilla and fold in half and cook in a pan with 2 tsp olive oil, I put 1/4 cup 1% milk cheese, thin sliced chicken breast, olives, spinach, onions, hot sauce and maybe bell peppers if we have any left. I like to dip the quesadilla in the soup. I always have a side of fruit and a small salad but I don't add most fruits and veggies on my diary usually so nobody knows!
