    I would do tuna in water right out of the can with a salad or put it on the salad with light dressing...I like Italian. Or walk 45mins so you can have extra calories.

    I'm not a fan of super restriction just because you've had one "bad" day; sometimes doing so leads to the adoption of destructive behaviors and unhealthy decision-making. Just eat a normal dinner and eat slightly less the rest of the week to balance everything out.

    Where I live a pouch of tuna in 5% water is 57 calories and a small can low salt mixed veggies is 26, plus a teaspoon of low cal mayo = right around 100 calories.
    2 cups of steamed veggies are just under 100 calories on average.
    A medium salad with mostly lettuce and some tomato ( 2oz tomato is 26 calories ) and some chopped cucumber plus a tiny bit of dressing = 100calories.
    I would probably allow myself another 200 calories and have a real meal and make up for it in other ways. Over a week's time it makes absolutely no difference. Eating at maintenance is another possibility.

    Chicken breast is always a good opinion for low calorie protein. But don't starve yourself. Just get back at it tomorrow x:)

    I love this spaghetti squash recipe: http://dandydishes.blogspot.com/2011/10/spaghetti-squash-au-gratin.html#.UkIu_TXn-Um. If you use lighter butter, sour cream, and cheese, you can keep it under 100 calories per serving. It's quite yummy too, if you like spaghetti squash (I don't try to think of it as a pasta replacement; those who do tend to be disappointed).

    So do I. As long as you count it, note it... you will be fine. We all have our days. And it's important not to starve yourself. Have a nice normal meal and be done with it! :)

    Not to pry here, but questions like this make me ask, so what is your calorie goal?

    4 hard boiled egg whites with salsa. I eat that everyday for lunch and it is under 100 calories.

    Oooooh, I forgot about that. I usually add avocado and keep the yolks though, so that would blow the 100 calorie budget :/

    How dare you besmirch the good name of "lunch"!

    And what do you do with the four hard boiled egg yolks???

    ETA: And is it just so you can have a bigger dinner?

    I just don't understand this...how you say?...100 calorie "lunch".

    ^This. This sounds really iffy to be honest. I'd hate to find out someone was getting suggestions to drastically under eat.

    100 cal pouch of Marketside guacamole/Walmart. Wonderful tasting stuff. Eat it slowly with a small spoon.

    Just eat, it wont kill you. I blew my calorie goal by about 2500 one day, two days later I was right back to the same weight I was before, at most I added a pound or so of water weight from the sodium and a few ounces of waste weight. It's not the end of the world, and you're at what 500 a day deficit? So you eat a normal dinner which basically puts you at maintenance for a day, big deal. Eat dinner and move on with life.

    You can't call 100 calories ''dinner''.

    This. Especially if you ate most of today's calories at breakfast, because that means you haven't really eaten much all day. By starving yourself tonight to make your calorie goal, you may be setting yourself up to struggle tomorrow when you wake up and are absolutely starving.

    Going over your calories once in awhile isn't going to derail your diet. I used to worry about it when I first started using MFP, but then I realized that most of the time it will even out within a few days.

    OP have a real meal log it honestly and move on, as you are most probably in a deficit you could easily eat up to maintenance and still not gain.

    I tend to have large late lunches on the weekends and leave 100 or less for dinner as well. I make a large bowl of cabbage soup using just cabbage, soup base from the Japanese mart, and hot sauce...maybe a hard boiled egg or half if I have enough calories. It leaves me very full and satisfied.
