Lunch Ideas

I usually have a bigger breakfast, small lunch, and good dinner!
I start work at 8am and can't eat before then so I have cereal in the office which is just enough, i'm not a big morning eater.
I tend to have a bigger lunch and smaller dinner if my partner isn't home for dinner or a smaller lunch and bigger dinner if he is. But I try not to eat carbs at dinner- I find they sit in my stomach and I can feel umcomfotable in the evening.
Does it matter which meal you are eating as the biggest?
The only reason for me having a bigger breakfast is that, in the mornings, im up and getting the kids ready for cohh. Get them off, and than eat.. and I do my workouts in the morning. It fuels me for most of the morning, anf takes away my morning hungers.. which Ill get if I dont eat. I eat a lunch.. usually under 250 cals, and than a good dinner with the family. I feel full for most of the day, and my breakfast really starts me on the right path for the day. If I dont.. I just dont feel right. If i also eat junk for breakfast, sugery and just plain no good.. i feel drained and workout. I usually have cereal, toast(light wheat) or bagle thins, turkey bacon... sometimes on my bagel with Laughing cow light cheese YUMMMM! Im just a morning person I guess0 -
My husband is the same as you though.. he cant eat a bigger breakfast. I guess as long as you have something.. small or big in the morning.. to jump start your matablism, It shouldnt matter.. as long as your in your calorie limits0

Whole wheat tortilla (80) with 3 oz pre-cooked grilled chicken (110), 1 tablespoon dried cranberries (25), 2 tablespoons Paula Deen's Peach Dressing (15), and 1/2 cup spinach (5) = 225 calories
Delicious and filling! Has lots of fiber and protein. ENJOY!0 -
