[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Soup is your friend, OP. It’s filling, healthy, and cheap. During the winter we eat soup everyday; mostly vegetarian.[/quote]

Agree:

Yogurt (110)  or egg (70), coffee (2) and fruit (45-110) for breakfast.
Soup (110) and simple salad (70) for lunch.

That leaves  ~800 calories for dinner, which is a feast.[/quote]

Unfortunately, 800 calories for dinneer is not a feast for some of us.

But this is definitely the way to do it.

NP. 800 is a lot of calories for one meal. It’s an entire chipotle bowl with rice, beans, steak, veggies, salsa, sour cream, corn, and cheese.

Last night, I had 6 oz of pan fried cod, olive oil, Quinoa, and grilled veggies for 385 calories. The night before, I had beef bulgogi, white rice, spinach and ice cream for dessert for 750 calories.[/quote]

NP again. Your meals sound good but don’t really do anything to refute the PP’s comment on 800 not being a feast for some people. You can easily hit that and much more with say—decent appetizer, a creamy pasta, a few glasses of wine, and good dessert. Which is my idea of a good feast. (But should not be eaten at all regularly!)

Your dinners are reasonable and healthy (and very in line with my family’s eating) but not what I’d think of as a feast![/quote]
