[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Its the calorie target I need to lose weight as well. Here is a general meal plan I'd follow:

-Breakfast
Fruit & fat-free greek yogurt with some honey OR
Fruit & scrambled eggs with pico on top

-Lunch
Turkey sammie with some baby carrots on the side OR
Nice big salad with lots of veggies & rotisserie chicken topped in a homemade dressing (I really like fresh squeezed orange juice with some dijon mustard and S&P whipped together, no need for oil)

-Dinner
2 glass of red wine. There is no OR here. Ok, sometimes 3. 
Whole-wheat pasta spaghetti OR
Some sort of protein with veggies and a carb side.

Dinner is our relaxing time, so I'd structure my day to make sure I was getting a reasonable amount of calories through the day but eat pretty light and then be able to enjoy dinner and also cook meals that had enough calories for my kid and husband. For example, last night I made crispy panko chicken along with roasted potatoes and a big side salad. I basically just had a smaller piece of chicken and a ton of salad, while my kid and husband loaded up on the chicken and potatoes with much less salad.

And as others said, lots of water and lots of tea. [/quote]

Oh, and olive oil spray for any of the veggies and proteins I make just for myself is critical. I use the real stuff in the evenings, but for lunches the spray does just fine. [/quote]
