    Half a PB and J, carrot or celery sticks, a yogurt or cheese stick, water.
    Soups are usually low cal, especially if you get those campbell's soup 2 go things... they aren't bad.
    Lean Cuisines are great but can be expensive and if you don't have a freezer or if people at your work steal food I don't recommend this.

    Tuna is always good. I take lean cuisines or weight watchers meals they are very filling and usually under 300 calories.

    half bag of tyson grilled chicken strips pre cooked
    .5 tablespoon of garden veggie 1/3 fat cream cheese

    makes one yummy (huge) wrap and is about 180 calories and fills me up til dinner.

    Left overs - all the time!! Love making a bit more for dinner so I can have a quality home cooked meal when I'm at work!

    If you don't like left-overs I do tuna salad wraps in head letus instead of wraps, turkey sandwich. Salad with cooked salmon and asparagus.

    Don't limit yourself for ideas anything goes so long as you have a microwave nearby

    I deconstruct healthy chicken burritos with the rice, beans and chicken, then nuke the "inside" of the burrito at work and put it in a wrap for a quick filling lunch. I do the same thing with sandwiches and wraps, with a side of apple slices or carrots. It's also really tasty to have a good salad prepacked from the night before, or leftover healthy pasta dishes. Everything is always better after a night of flavor-mixing in the fridge. :)
