I will one day find my swolemate and she will cook for me . I ended up getting my calories by a fruit smoothie with a protein powder last night and for lunch today. I tried cooking last night and my smoke alarm went off for burning chicken. Cooking is just not my talent.

Aww.. It's so fun though. Ok I'm probably a kitchen nerd.

Quite a funny gif, but id have to kill you, Good luck though youll do fine.

Hey there shmalan ,I guess you would start to feel like a bunny after eating so many salads! Maybe eat some eggs or grilled chicken..? I'm afraid ,I can't be of much help in the eating healthy area since if you want to be healthy you should probably do the opposite of what I usually do. Anyway,good luck on your weight loss journey!

Ok...less cooking. We can do this!

This is one of my favorite lunches for work, especially because one prep session = 4 meals. No cooking involved. I usually add a few Kettle chips and some unsweetened tea, for about 350 calories. http://www.eatingwell.com/recipes/salmon_salad_sandwiches.html

This one is technically a salad, but I've never found it very...salad-y. Also no cooking involved. I'll be real honest and say I buy lime juice in the little squeeze bottles in the produce section and leave out the cilantro. I get 231 calories, via MFP. https://www.eatthismuch.com/recipe/view/chicken-and-avocado-salad,33519/

For this one you have to boil pasta, and you probably want to add a vegetable of some kind to be really healthy. I get 201 calories per serving as written, via MFP. https://www.eatthismuch.com/recipe/view/veggie-tuna-mac,48545/

I haven't made this yet, but I'm planning on it next week. Maybe pizza would be worth a little cooking? http://www.eatingwell.com/recipes/broccoli_rabe_chicken_white_pizza.html

Frozen spinach and cheese ravioli...all you do is warm the spinach with some oil in a skillet while boiling the ravioli, for 263 calories. http://www.eatingwell.com/recipes/florentine_ravioli.html

If you like Mexican food, this one is nice. You mix up a filling of black beans, cheese, salsa, and avocado, put it in tortillas, and heat them in a skillet. If you want you could skip the skillet and heat them in the microwave. EatingWell says 377 calories. http://www.eatingwell.com/recipes/black_bean_quesadillas.html

The other thing is if you bake chicken or white fish, you can easily add seasonings to make it a different taste on different days. I like doing a little honey with some butter, black pepper and a generous amount of cayenne pepper; or cover the filets with spinach and douse liberally with vanilla extract with a bit of salt. Spices like cayenne, garlic, black pepper, etc are basically free, so play with them. I often just smell the bottle to see whether it smells like what I'm in the mood for.

Tomorrow is Monday I think I'm going to have some soup. Any recommendations?

In this weather?! I like gazpacho with a huge dollop of guacamole (or half an avocado, diced). http://www.chow.com/recipes/29595-basic-tomato-gazpacho
