Brown bagging it- what did you bring for lunch today?

Options
Besides the economic reasons for bringing your lunch its also easier to track your meals. It takes extra planning and work at night, and sometimes I cave and just say to myself ‘I’ll just grab sushi or Starbucks tomorrow’ but then I find I end up making poor food choices.

Here’s my packed lunch for today:

Am snacks – chocolate jello cup & low calorie yogurt
Lunch- Mushroom melt veggie burger (cut in half and stacked for packing) with roasted butternut squash and cabbage
Mid snack- Some light cheese, half an apple and some homemade chocolate peanut protein bar

    I didn't take a pic, but I have a Coach's Oats pancake (for breakfast), mini Babybel cheese (am snack), a herb-roasted turkey and havarti sandwich (lunch), a crapton of broccoli to steam (pm snack) and I brought a Chobani greek yogurt cup for just-in-case, though tonight is my Bible study and who knows what's being brought for snack so I'm trying to conserve calories. :)

    Looks yummy Morgan--like the pic!

    For me, I brought a homemade chicken chilli from the Eat Clean cookbook and brown rice. I think I am going to go warm it up now!

    Oh no, that's awful! Did you leave an angry note? At our old apartment we had assigned parking spots, and the neighbors two floors beneath us thought it was funny to have their friends/visitors park in our spot to piss us off, so DH and I got used to writing down license plate numbers and writing firmly-toned notes about not parking in our (clearly marked) spot... Im not sure that made it any better, but what can you do? Oh well. What kind of tea? :)
