I think at dinner it's a lot easier for me, because you can do meat or fish with fresh veggies and/or a salad. I've been trying to stay away from prepackaged side dishes like rice/pasta... but sometimes it's hard. When I'm running short on time & I do make those items, I do my best to stick to the portion size so I can keep a better track on what I am eating.

I know how a hectic schedule can be! Since I work at night, thats when I eat most. One thing I do is keep tons of frozen green giant steam in the bag vegetables on hand. When my schedule is nuts and hectic with no time to cook, I just grab a bag and go. I keep a bottle of green tabasco sauce in my locker at work....so I am all set!
