    Tomato and basil soup with multi-seed bread for me today - probably a yogurt and kiwi fruit as well.

    I hope you find something!

    I take a lot of soups or sandwiches...got to watch the sodium in those though, I also make enough supper to have leftovers at lunch for a few days. Try planning you meals for the week on Sunday so you will be prepared.

    i was just about to say yeah bring lunch. if you end up eating out applebees, boston market,and subway have a decent selection of meals under 550 calories.Only issue with these meals is not only are they low calorie a lot of the times the portions suck.I often sit there and think of course this damn steak and potato meal is under 550 calories cause the steak is the size of a dice

    A couple of packs of Chicken of the Sea Salmon, Whole wheat Bread, Hot Sauce, and baby carrotts on the side(instead of chips).

    You have to bring your own, it soon gets to be a habit.

    I do home made soup with a seeded pitta bread quite often.
    Today's is a tortilla wrap filled with prawns, rocket and cottage cheese, and then some strawberries.

    Hey there!

    Today I am having soup, 'Super Green Soup' which is 600g and 210 calories. It contains, potato, beans, peas, mint, broccoli. Healthy and very very low fat!

    If I want a filling low fat lunch, I would get a small pack of chicken, cut up some tomatoes, cucumber, lettuce, and spring onion. The chicken really will fill you up.
    I also enjoy fish for lunch as most small fillets poached or steamed can be around 90-100 calories, add in some lovely veggies at around 50-100 calories and you have a filling dinner, very low calorie and very low fat- so you could even squeeze in a tasty dessert (healthy mind)
