    A serving of lean ground beef (130-150 cals) on top of a big bowl of lettuce. Add salsa and 1/4 cup Kraft fat free shredded cheese. Taco salad! When I have the cals I eat it with Tostito chips.

    Fish with soysauce, garlic, and a touch of water... on a half cup of rice with a cup of broccoli... its delicious if you toss the broccoli in the sauce right before you serve it. delicious!

    grilled chicken/ sliced turkey on a huge salad. depending on calories from the protein you may even have something leftover for a side of yogurt or something.

    I can't recall the precise names, but there are certain frozen yogurt shops with delicious low cal options. You can get a huge bowl with fresh fruit and enjoy for under 200 calories (some places, not others). Then you get calcium, protein, something sweet and some fresh fruit in. I end up doing this a few times a year when I have a business lunch, work late, and am starving on my way home. I am always amazed at how good I feel.

    For 250 calories, you can have 4 oz of chicken breast (90-120 calories depending on brand), 1 cup of almost any veggie (think broccoli 30 spinach 30 green beans 40) and a LITTLE bit of starch (1/2 cup steamed white rice is 75 calories).
