  Salad? Grilled chicken with brown rice and veggies? Eating late isn't so bad as long as you're not eating a ton after you already had dinner

  It's the perfect meal.  It's not too heavy, it's quick to prepare, delicious, and a nutritional powerhouse if done properly.
  
  you can make pancakes ahead of time and freeze them. (flax and pumpkin pancakes are ridiculously delicious, esp. with honey on top)
  
  bacon and sausage are great protein, there are lighter versions, and they just taste good
  
  It only takes a minute to do a quick egg scramble (I use eggbeaters)
  
  A nice glass of milk for some dairy
  
  Finish it off with a chunk of grapefruit.

  Anna, I was reading the other food list you posted in the other thread. I was wondering if you used in indoor grill or if you grilled outside? We were thinking about getting an indoor grill but not sure if it is worth it.

  We moved out big outdoor grill to the garage for overwinter and us it in there.  BUT  previous years when it's been too snowy to get to back on the deck, I used a George Foreman grill and it really did work really well.  It was just a bit of a pain to clean but hey, it was free from some relative.  If I was looking into buying an indoor grill of some sort (and I always am since I'm a kitchen appliance lover)  i'd get :  <a href="http://www.cuisinart.com/products/grills/gr-4n.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.cuisinart.com/products/grills/gr-4n.html</a>

  Get a rotisserie from Costco on sunday, pull off the chicken, make stock with the bones, strain the bones from the broth, add in all sorts of veggies (tomato, onion, carrot, corn, zuchini) and all the chicken back in also (minus the skin).  You'll have a delicious low-cal soup that will last you the entrire week.  The fiber from the fruits and veggies will keep you full.  Try just heating up one cup at first then after 15 miunutes if you are still hungry have another cup.  The more veggies, the hartier and the less full you'll be.  Notice i didn't say to add in noodles - while low in calories the wheat and type of carbohydrates aren't good for you.  Try to stick to carbs from fruit and veggies...
