I am new to this site and watching what I eat. Just wanted to know what everyone is having for lunch so I can get some nutritious ideas for the future. I just ate some grilled chicken breast with a piece of provolone cheese on top, some fat free cottage cheese and water.

    You probably wont believe this but I usually have a peanut butter and jelly sandwich on wheat! I use natural peanut butter. It really fills me up. Then I have an orange or an apple with it. Iced tea.

    Then a couple of hours later --- air popped popcorn and a diet soda.

    Keeps me going.

    Something about peanut butter - gotta have it!

    I had a frozen banana covered in yogurt and granola!!!!!! Really filling, and tastes great. The only problem is, you have to freeze the banana for a few hours, and don't let it stick to the plate!!!!!!!!!:laugh:

    i manage it so my breakfast is small so i can have a more filling luch since i love pasta....so it's gonna be 1c speg. carbonara and 1 oz skinless grilled chicken breast. Dieting for me doesn't mean leftovers have to go uneaten.

    I have tried it and I like it a lot. Antthing to get away from aspertane. I do missed my SF jello and SF pudding tho. What can I make to replace it?
