Meal ideas under 200 calories?

Grill some chicken breast, then have some with a lot of veggies, or in salad with a bit of cheese and salsa for dressing. Or some shrimps with veggies. Or an egg white omelet with cheese and veggies.

Frozen, pre-cooked shrimp. It thaws in about 3 minutes. If you don't feel like cooking, put it on top of a big ol' salad and use a modicum of dressing. (Not fat-free. A lot of the nutrients in lettuce and other salad greens are fat-soluble, so you need a little fat to get much benefit from the salad.)

I can't tell from your profile--are you very petite or are you trying to lose 2 lbs a week? You don't have a lot of weight to lose, and as a busy nursing student, you might be better off trying to lose weight more slowly and allotting yourself more calories.

Simple but tasty - flaked canned tuna and chopped celery sandwich. Add and melt cheese for a few extra calories and a lot if extra yumminess .

Add your choice for a side.

My wife and I have a great low cal breakfast we do almost daily. In a small bowl we put 1/4 cup of ground turkey sausage that we pre make and bag. (if you want recipe I can post) 3/4 cup of egg beaters substitute or egg whites substitute, table spoon of chopped hot peppers also pre made. Mix in bowl and 3 mins in micro.

3/4 cup egg substitute - 75 cal
1/4 cup ground turkey sausage - 66
peppers - 0 cal

Total calories - 141 (and 3/4 cup of egg is equivalent to 3 eggs so it is a good amount of food)

You make turkey sausage? Is this difficult?

One egg, one egg white, scramble in the microwave with spinach and mushrooms.

A bag of salad leaves and a small can of tuna.

Vegetable soup.

Its ground turkey sausage, so it is in crumble form, it's not hard at all, we make up about 5 lbs of it put in baggies and freeze it. use it in all kids of stuff, about anything you would put ground beef in you can substitute this for.

We use 97% lean packages that you can get at Sam's in 2.5 lb packages. This recipe is for 2.5#

Mix 2.5# of ground turkey with:

3/4 tsp ginger
1.5 tsp salt
1 tsp rubbed sage
1 tsp fennel
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
1.5 tsp black pepper.

Brown as you would hamburger.

You can also make into patties and fry like breakfast sausage.

We use in soup, eggs, spaghetti, possibilities are endless!

We figured using a diet scale that a 1/4 cup is about 65-75 calories.

Enjoy!

Vegan Low-Fat Blueberry Microwave Muffin!

In a mug or ramekin, mix together: 1 tbsp nondairy milk (I use unsweetened almond - add a tiny bit more if your batter seems too thick) + 1/4 tsp vanilla or lemon extract (or both or 1 tsp lemon juice or a pinch of zest) + 1 tbsp unsweetened apple sauce + 1 tbsp raw agave nectar (or pure maple syrup or brown rice syrup) + 3 tbsp all-purpose whole wheat flour (or whole wheat pastry flour) + 1/4 tsp baking powder + healthy pinch of salt + healthy pinch of cinnamon.

Fold in about 2 tbsp of fresh or frozen blueberries. Microwave 1-2 minutes, until the muffin starts to separate from the sides of the mug or ramekin. Enjoy with coffee or hot tea :] 1 muffin = about 158 calories, depending on your specific ingredients.

If you can make meals ahead of time that would make it so much easier. Overnight Oatmeal is a great breakfast that you make ahead of time. You can do salads too. Use a mason jar, put the dressing on the bottom, then veggies, then meat and/or cheese, then lettuce. So easy and quick. I have tons of low cal. easy stuff. If you want add me and I can give you some great ones!
