    Mmm these all sound so tasty!

    I've got a bit of a splurge lunch today. Some leftover homemade spaghetti from the other night. And for snacks I've brought a banana and some coconut greek yogurt.

    I eat almost the same thing for lunch every day at work. a low cal tv dinner and an apple. Today it's some Margherita chicken balsamic healthy choice thing and a gala apple. I'll eat a banana after I go to the gym around 4:30.

    I have 2 kids under 4 and while I eat pretty clean outside of work and on the weekends I need something that doesn't require thought or I'm eating out for lunch. We have fabulous restaurants near my work. I'd probably eat indian food like every day without the frozen meal.

    Lunch is homemade vegetable soup with ground turkey (thank you crock pot) with fruit for snack. If I get really sugar crave-y there's an emergency Larabar in my desk.

    I bring my lunch to work every day. A sandwich is routine for me but I add other items with it which can be reviewed on my food diary. For today:

    Sara Lee light wheat hamburger bun, 2 slices of lean Oscar Mayer Turkey Breast, 1 slice 2% american cheese,
    a small amount of Hellman's light mayo.
    Snack and or during lunch: Sabra Hummus with pretzels, the roasted red pepper variety
    one 11oz Premier Protein Strawberries and Cream flavor which has 30g of protein and 160 calories - great new flavor if you have not tried it....great protein supplement to get me to my goal protein intake....
    and...a small cup of Jello Sugar Free Black Cherry jello in case I need something else.

    Have a great day!

    Typically I bring some leftover dinner for my lunch. Today, the snack is watermelon! Delicious but, sadly, this is probably the last watermelon of the season.

    I also like cheese sticks, pretzels and Maria biscuits. You can find them in the cookie aisle or, the Mexican or international foods section. They are kind of like vanilla wafers and fantastic with tea or coffee.

    A great sandwich trick is to use plain nonfat yogurt instead of mayo or other sandwich spread. Sometimes, you don't even need cheese on the sandwich.
