[quote=Anonymous]My 1200ish calorie days for losing weight:

Breakfast- nonfat plain Greek yogurt with berries OR egg white omlette with TONS of veggies, usually onions and peppers and broccoli and zucchini (whatever I have in the house) or just with spinach.   Sometimes I dump tomato salsa on at the end

Lunch veggie salad with lean protein (baked chicken or chick peas). Veggie salad means greens (usually spring mix, sometimes spinach) and veggies.  No cheese, no croutons, nothing soaked/marinated in oil- just veggies (peppers, carrots, peppers, artichoke hearts or hearts of palm, mushrooms, whatever tickles your fancy).  2 T salad dressing.  I pack my salads at work, and the dressing container only holds 2 T.

Snacks could be pickle wrapped in a slice of smoked turkey breast, apple, hard boiled egg (ideally fruit or veggie + protein)

Dinner - lean protein (fish, baked chicken), comes carb (sweetpotato, brown rice, quinoa), and TONS of veggies.  If I am still hungry, 2nds on veggies only (if you are not hungry for veggies, you are not really hungry)

If I am still starving in the evening, or my family is eating dessert, I will have air popped popcorn.

And water, LOTS of water.  At least two 32 Oz water bottles (try to have one finished by the end of lunch or afternoon snack at work)[/quote]
