    Got this about a month ago. I thought it was one of those stretchy ones but it's fairly rigid. Hard to pack leftovers sometimes but for the usual sandwich, yogurt, protein bar and a couple pieces of fruit, it works just fine. And it's cute! :)

    Mine is similar to this.. but I don't like it.. I need compartments for coffee mugs and sport bottles and such. I'm thinking of just taking my gym bag to work with lunch in it. LOL

    I thought this post was about food.. can I make it about food??
    I have a salad with feta and tuna on it and yogurt with blueberries, chai and vanilla protein powder mixed in.
    And a side of slow cooked shredded pork and onions.

    I need a bigger bag. lol

    I use a basic rectangular lunch bag/box given to me free by me company years ago and ignored till just a couple months back. It does exactly what I need because I can pack lunch in a 16oz ziplock twist and lock container, sling the whole thing over my shoulder with my purse on my way in to work and everything stays put till it's time for yumness!

    I bought one when it was on clearance from a company I used to work for. But I'm looking for ideas for an upgrade... early birthday present to me :)

    I love this bag! It stretches out a bit, too, so I can fit a lot in it!

    Do it about food lol I was more curious about what people are carrying their lunch in! Anyways, the title would be more like "What does your lunch look like?"

    I almost bought a bag like this... the material threw me off.

    I use a 6 pack bag so it's big and bulky but it works for me. If it doesn't come in my bag to work with me I don't eat it. And of course it's pink!

    I saw this at GNC. The impulsive me almost bought it.. but the practical me couldn't bring myself to spend that much. In other words, if someone feels like donating it to me, i'll not to proud to accept it. :~p

    I love this bag... but I would just use it as a purse rather than a lunch bag.

    I only bring a grapefruit and I carry it in a sock. For some reason no one bothers me at my desk untill after lunch.

    I honestly look like a hobo everyday I go to work. I really should invest in a real lunch bag :indifferent:

    I love my lunch bag! It's so cute ( I have a thing for loud colors/patterns) that it actually encourages me to pack my breakfast/lunch. Pretty spacious too!

    Very nice - I like it but I don't pack near enough food to justify getting one (but I love it!).

    I have a Zaza insulated lunch tote that came with a 5-piece container (w/ice pack); got it at Costco for $20 and it looks like a purse :) Here's a link on Amazon so you can see what it looks like: http://www.amazon.com/ZAZA-LUNCH-PIECE-PROOF-CONTAINER/dp/B00J8WLJNI/ref=sr_1_2?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1396967938&sr=1-2&keywords=zaza+lunch+tote

    I usually take 4-6 plastic containers or bento boxes (no one bento box just isn't enough) and throw em into my massive gym bag (I go to the gym before work), if I'm afraid it might spill, I wrap it in some shopping bags.

    :happy:

    Seriously, though, I have just a small, insulated tote that really doesn't hold much of anything. Need to upgrade to some of the ones I'm seeing in this thread!

    Can't post a picture, but I'll describe. :tongue: I work 24-hour shifts at the fire department. I bring a large soft-sided cooler, tall enough to fit my 6, liter-sized water bottles and my gallon Rubbermaid jug and food containers for the day. I also bring a box, standard cardboard, with my dry goods. (ie. Coffee, snacks etc...) I pack enough for 36 hours, just in case I get held over. No cute little lunch box for me. :ohwell: Tho' I'm loving some of the cute ones that have been posted. :drinker:

    Wow props! 6 liters worth of water is a lot of hauling. Must get your workout in one sitting lol

    LOL I've been held over at work and/or had really slow days where food runs out WAY before shift does....so I probably over pack, but if it doesn't come with me, then it doesn't get eaten. One of the 6 liter bottles is my "creamer" that I make for my coffee. The rest are protein drinks to help me make my macros, they tend to be too syrupy for my taste if I make them as directed, so I do one in a liter of water for the same protein grams and extra water. It works. I just wish they made a CUTE cooler, I would buy one.

    It's been so long since I've posted a picture on here, I don't know if I remember how to do it right. lol

    This is mine, a thirty-one bag in butterfly print. The reverse side doesn't have the polka-dot print, just the butterflies.

    http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-quSvQrzt6QA/TxDOy1r87PI/AAAAAAAAROU/OmivzJ1Onuc/s1600/thermal+totes+002.JPG

    Almost looks like the same size as mine.

    It's not a bad size, but if I wanted to bring much more, it might be difficult. I can fit 5-6 16 oz bottles of water in it (I've done it for long trips). I generally bring a frozen lunch (mostly Lean Cuisine), carrots, some Oikos dip for the carrots, a Greek yogurt, a cheese stick or cottage cheese and a serving of beef jerky. There's still room for more, I could fit a fruit or two in there, for sure.

    I have one of these genius things, and use it everyday for my lunch salad:

    Salad_To_Go10054476_2_x.jpg

    I fill the bottom bin with spinach, the top sections with chopped veggies, cheese, and chicken, and the middle container with dressing. Then I just pop it into a grocery bag with my afternoon snack (usually an apple with peanut butter, or some cottage cheese and fruit or something) and away I go.

    I use this one as well. It works for me and I don't usually have an issue putting anything in it. We have 2 and H and I rotate them. I also have a Vera Bradley cooler that I bring when I need to
