Diet planning HELP!!

If anyone can help me that would be great…..
Over the last couple of years I’ve paid for a couple of personal diets and I’ve always been given a diet which to be honest cost a lot over the time scale I’ve been given. I know a diet is not cheap but I’m just looking for someone to help me in what I would like to eat and work round my schedule.
I’ve put on “my fitnesspal app” and the info I put it says I should eat around 2200 calories a day and 90g of fat.

I like the basic food and happy to meal prep but I find it hard to find the right food.

I start work at 7am but as I’m never hungry in the morning my first meal is around 12.30pm and then my next meal is around 8.30pm and then a snack around 10pm and that is it. I’ve been told that is not good for me but that is what I’m used to for a few years now.

Would anyone have any ideas on what to eat and for it to benefit me in my goal to lose weight.

I also go to the gym which is actually helping me lose some weight.

Something in the morning and an earlier dinner/snack might help you if you can adjust to that.

If you try breakfasts .. make them quick. The nonfat yogurt/fruit suggestion another SWer made is something I do regularly, usually with some protein powder mixed in. I buy yogurt in the quart tub and the protein powder when on sale at Sam's to save $$. The Chocolate flavor with a banana or raspberries (frozen are cheaper) is almost like a dessert and sometimes have it for one. A whole grain english muffin with a little peanut butter or Nutella is another quick option. I usually make a couple one egg omelettes on Sunday nights and reheat with an english muffin or a tortilla a couple mornings as a breakfast sandwich.

For dinners do a lot of stirfry type stuff in a nonstick pan .. more veggies than meat, seasonings from Italian, Mexican, Asian, Middle Eastern, Indian, Cajun to Jamaican Jerk, etc. Sometimes eat it alone, sometimes with a serving of rice (often cilantro lime) as a side or toss in a handful of whole wheat pasta.

Good luck !!
