Good 200 calories meals for 5:2 Diet

DollyTheSheep

Having another crack at the 5:2 diet, five years since I last did it. Can anyone recommend who has done this diet too or knows a bit about nutrition, any good 200 calories meals for dinner and tea - that they found filling and they enjoyed having?

I'm not doing the 5/2 diet but keep my breakfast and lunch at under 200 Cal's each!

Skimmed milk, fat free natural yoghurt and oats, blitzed together to make a breakfast smoothie; oats can be swapped for fresh fruit and can double up as a lunch meal instead.

Lunch is normally toast and butter.

Snacks are a banana in the morning and pineapple in the evening.

Tea you would need to look at jacket spuds or meat and veg or salad.

Prawns! They're very low in calories, but high in protein which helps you feel full. I attempted 5:2 once, this was one of my meals, prawn salad. Although I couldn't handle the 5:2 diet, this was one meal I'll remember.

Buy Mimi Spencer's recipe book. Loads of ideas.

When I'd been keeping on that diet, I had been eating fruits on 200 calories days.
