    So far, I've had a granny smith apple, and, errrr, I guess a lazy chicken soup (bouillon cubes and a bunch of the veggies from a broccoli salad bag). Going to have a little packet of tuna with some sriracha soon.

    Goal for tomorrow: actually remember to bring a protein so I'm not stuck eating yet another packet of tuna.

    Looks great for a snack, but for me 200 calories is not a lunch, it's a pennance! I am assuming you eat lots of meals like this a day, or eat the majority of your food at other meals?!

    My lunch today was a heaped large plate of maccaroni with homemade cheese sauce, broccoli and turkey. 631 calories all weighed to the gram, 31g protein. Still fits in my 1700 alotted calories today and in my daily macros.

    ETA - as you can guess, I don't snack - or at most once, a light one in the afternoon. I guess people eat very differently !

    You are correct. I eat several small meals a day as I am also diabetic and it helps even out the sugar highs and lows. I am just trying to make those meals a bit more healthy and fresh.

    You are succeeding - that definitely looks fresh, balanced and delicious!

    Arnold sandwich round with 43 grams Oscar Mayer rotisserie chicken breast, 19 grams Sargento Provolone cheese, 11 grams Philadelphia whipped cream cheese spread and 34 grams sliced tomato. With that 1 packet of Crystal light energy grape flavor in 1 qt water, 128 grams baby carrots and 33 grams Rold Gold dark dipped bavarian twists for 463 calories. I regret nothing.

    I am impressed. Bravo to all my fellow MFP. For the most part, those lunches are delicious, healthy and mostly fresh ingredients. Gave me some wonderful ideas for future lunches. Thanks

    Penn station turkey. It wasn't so much what I ate, but who I ate it with . My daughter is home from college. She was my focus today.

    I made a chickpea curry . The entire recipe is about 700 calories (no oil or coconut milk) and I'll be having it for dinner too. A bit higher in carbs than I personally prefer but tasty stuff.
