    I teach and take a whole wheat sandwich thin with lean meat and whatever you want to add ...I do veggies and mustard. I also take a piece of fruit and a sugar free chocolate pudding (that is my chocolate fix for the day). It is usually under 300 calories and that leaves me enough for a healthy afternoon snack. Also, if I get bored with that I take a reduced fat cheese stick and one serving of wheat thins in place of the sandwich. I have been averaging a loss of about 2 lbs per week since mid January so it has worked for me. Good luck!

    Hi

    I have a great low calorie recipe ..perfect for taking in a box to work, and it's so simple to make.

    Basically fry any veg you want in one cal spray oil, I used peppers,courgettes, red onion and mushrooms. Place in a round flan/pyrex dish.

    Beat 3 eggs together, stir in 200g of virtually fat free cottage cheese. I then placed 4 slices of sliced tomatoes on the top of the veg.
    Pour over the veg and bake for 30 mins gas mark 5.

    Lasts four days and is great with a mixed salad.

    Hope this helps..
