Browned Milanesa, couscous salad(see recipe), steamed veggies, allthe beverage you can stand (you know the drill at this point)
Miso/Wonton/Hot sour or any other broth based soup, oyster crackers (not those fried wonton noodles..calorie central) Whole grain roll, steamed veggies, beverage of your choice.

Chili and oyster crackers, beverage of your choice

Grilled or baked Salmon(or other fish you like), steamed veggies, whole grain roll, beverage of your choice.
Yes, by all means have dessert, just not a lot of it. One or two tablespoons to satisfy your cravings.
Substitute salad for stemed veggies at your whim, vegetables are unlimited, except potatoes, they're a no no. Rice is a no no. If you absolutely must must must have rice, use long grain wild rice. If you must must must have potatoes, bake the potato and use fat free sour cream and minimal butter or put homemade salsa on it.
Pot Roast Recipe
Before you go to bed, brown your roast in a skillet 3-4 minutes each side, place in crock pot with 1/2 cup burgundy cooking wine (if you use the cooking wine DO NOT SALT THE ROAST)and 1/2 cup water. Put lido n crock pot. Leave crock pot on low over night. When you get up in the morning check the water level to make sure you don't burn the roast while at work, add more water and cooking wine if necessary. When you get home, toss carrots, onions, and broccoli or cauliflower or both into the crock pot. Turn crock pot off place lid back on crock pot until supper time. Roast will fall apart as you serve it, veggies will still be a bit crunchy.
