I missed this yesterday but yesterdays lunch and todays are the same...3.2 oz of ground turkey (seasoned with pepper and salt-free Mrs. Dash garlic and herb), a little less than a half cup of rice and green beans, with an unsweetened applesauce. Right at 300 calories!

Maybe you can try to get to the gym more than 3 days a week? Try 4-5 and see if that additional exercise helps. I know you said your options are limited due to ortho problems, but maybe trying something new will give your body a jump start.
