    I like to get protein at every meal.

    Breakfast this morning was Greek yogurt with berries, nuts, and Kashi Go Lean cereal. High protein, high fiber, some healthy fat.....265 calories. I throw the yogurt and berries in a big soup mug (Good Cook brand has a lid)......and then dump the dry ingredients in when I get to work. I "pack" breakfast the same way I pack lunch.

    Lunch is sandwiches or wraps. Cottage cheese and fruit. Leftovers. A frozen dinner. Typically I pack a side of veggies and a side of fruit.

    For easy and fast I make 12 egg muffins with spinach and mushrooms the night before.
    Breakfast is 2 of the egg muffins and a Kefir fruit smoothie which is cup Kefir 1 cup frozen strawberries or other berries. I don't have time for a snack between breakfast and lunch so that the protein, carbs, and sugars keep me full and give me enough energy to last till lunch time.
    I eat my breakfast at my desk.

    Do you have a microwave close to your desk that you can use?

    I love those think thin smoothies you get them at Target they are only 150 calories with 15 grams of protein. Then you have more wiggle room for lunch and dinner. Im on a 1500 calorie diet recommend by my dietician. The south beach diet is great for maintaining low calories.
