Lunch suggestions? New so need ideas

Get a food scale. You will be AMAZED how much you guesstimate OVER!!! Once I got one, it was plain to see how much more I was eating and then I was wondering why I wasn't losing any weight.

For lunches, I generally pack sandwiches (easy to take in cooler to work). I use 35 calorie wheat bread or Arnold thins whole wheat rolls. I stick with 99% fat free hams or oven baked turkeys. Mustard is my only condiment. I then pack baby carrots, clementines, and a snack bag of pretzels or some other type of baked chips. Water and diet soda.

Most times I bring some of the food back home, my appetite isn't as big as it used to be (YAY).

Just do the best you can and stick with making right choices! You're going to do GREAT!

I generally have fish/ham/chicken salads or put it all in a wrap, just one thing I have to keep in mind is that often prepacked ham and that have high sodium levels (well not high high but high enough) as do the tortillas I use (I'm sure there's loads out there that don't) so whilst I often have chicken and ham salads it's only really the fish I put in wraps since otherwise I get a huge amount of sodium which isn't good for me since my dinners are generally high sodium so the less sodium in my other meals the better. I rarely go over 250 calories with my lunch so if you want bigger lunches you've got plenty of calories left for other stuff.
Anyway my main salad foods are: chili's, jalepinos, lettuce, capsicum(sweet peppers), tomatoes, cucumber, celery, carrots and sweetcorn. Of course I don't have all of those every day but it's nice to have a selection so your salads don't get boring.
Also I have often had peanut butter on water crackers for/with lunch and another option is fruit salads, I tend to avoid these not because of sugar content or anything but because I like my fruit fresh, I hate it when it starts to go squishy from sitting in a box too long.
Oh and there's always Falafel as well in case I get bored. Best bet is if you know what foods you like and enjoy to just add them all to you're diary under lunch, then see how much calories are there and play around, take stuff out, put more stuff in, until you have a meal you'd enjoy and find filling without going over calories and that (I tend to limit myself to 300 calories for lunch just because I eat huge dinners so that's what I mean by 'not going over calories').

I agree 100%... it is the best tool to have in your kitchen.

As for lunches,
> veggie burgers... morning star makes terrific ones that come in a ton of different flavors
> Sara lee 45 Calorie 100% Whole Wheat bread is one of the best low-cal bread options out there.
> tofu shiritaki noodles... 20 calories a serving (40 for the whole bag). Great with light Alfredo sauce, shrimp and brocoli mixed in
> soups... just watch the sodium content. I buy the no salt added or reduced sodium soups you can find in the health food section of the market.
> salads... always a good option, however make sure you prepare one that covers all the bases (veggies,protein, carbs)try hard boiled eggs, cheese or beans for a non-meat protein option.
> frozen meals... good as a quick go to, however don't make a habit of eating them everyday due to the high sodium content and preservatives.
> egg salad, tuna salad, shrimp salad.... all options for sandwiches or wraps. (Use fat free Greek yogurt in place of mayonaise, its creamy and fresh without all the fat.)
> sides... fruit, nuts (almonds, pistatios), veggies (edemame, steamed broccoli...), low Cal, high fiber crackers

soups. protein filled sandwiches.
I used to freeze marinated chicken breast in portion sized snap bags, then just defrost and grill and add to a salad. takes about 5 minutes after you have defrosted it and its a lot yummier then same ol' same ol'

My favorite lunch is a sandwich thin (I like the flax ones from Arnolds), spread with hummus and a few thin slices of deli turkey. On the side, I usually eat a handful of pretzels and another scoop of hummus because I'm an addict.
