    Usually salad or sometimes sushi when at work. Dinner leftovers when at home. One of the cafeterias at the hospital where I work does made to order fresh salads. I know I am too slow most mornings to make my lunch, so I have calculated the expense of buying lunch into my weekly grocery budget. This works pretty well for me, because then I don't end up with cilantro, lettuce or raw spinach spoiling in my fridge if I forget to use it.

    I nearly always have leftovers. Today I had some leftover grilled veggies (cauliflower and carrots) from our cookout last night. I added a little cheese for protein since there wasn't any leftover salmon. On the rare occasion that there aren't any leftovers I'll bring hummus and crackers, veggie sticks and peanut butter, a low carb wrap with greens, veggie and cheese, something like that.

    I've fallen into a habit of having junk food for lunch every day for a week or so: four pizza rolls and eight waffle fries, 284 calories. I'm spending the summer writing a book, and baking those suckers in the oven is the perfect amount of time for a pressure think. Plus it keeps me from craving other junk food the rest of the day. Obviously I am not a clean eater.

    Sometimes leftovers, but in winter I usually have soup with cornthins and in summer I usually have either a hummus and salad sandwich or salad & corn thins. Boring, but it works for me.

    I usually eat a salad or a simple sandwich, maybe leftovers from the night before.
