Right now I'm doing the 60 calorie, no sugar added, chocolate breakfast essential packs, with 3/4 cup 2% milk, ice, half of a banana, and 1tbsp of creamy peanut butter all blended together in a blender! It tastes so good and keeps me full usually until dinner time!0

LOL me too!!!
Also, my new favorite is 4-5 oz of chicken, (or turkey breast) Fried in Olive Oil Pam, with garlic, pepper and Lime juice.... mixed with 1 cup of pico de gallo.... its 175 calories...and yummy0 -
Wholewheat wrap, turkey lunch meat, lettuce tomato and little oil/vinegar, from the deli. Counting as 270 cals from MFP db. Recently changed to m/wave noodle lunches and weight loss stalled a little. So reverting back to my exact formula when I was successfully losing weight.
Tomorrow trying a homemade similar thing. From the supermarket a flax Roll-Up (110 cals), chicken breast deli meat (50 cals), lettuce (0 cals, I dunno ) and boars head horseradish sauce (15 cals). By my calc s/b around 175 cals.0 -
Lunch for me has to be something light and low carb because I sit all day at work and it messes with my digestion. Plus if I have carbs they tend to make me feel sluggish and sleepy which I don't need while stuck at work. I like to make salads chock full of fresh vegetables, beans added to fill me up, maybe some avocado sliced up. Pretty boring stuff I suppose. Left overs also make for great work lunches.0

I munch on spinach salad with a hard boiled egg, a little cheese and a little balsamic vinaigrette. Oh and of course water0

I usually just like to eat something quick and easy for lunch...
- PB and banana sandwich with some carrots or hard boiled egg
-turkey/ham/chicken & avocado sandwich. Lots of veggies
- egg white omelet with a piece of toast if I'm lacking on protein for that day.
-occasionally oatmeal
-Tuna salad, bean salad, taco salad.
-sometimes just some fish with some crackers
- tortilla wrap with any type of lean meat.
Not very creative but quick and yummy!0 -
I had a devon and cheese toastie and an apple0

All winter long it's an Amy's Texas burger or a plain Quorn burger with a T or 2 of Trader Joes pepper spread and a big serving of frozen broccoli.
Now it's something from the garden - this week mostly cabbage salads with various other veggies, a little home made tahini dressing and maybe some walnuts or cashews.0 -
Meat.0

Whatever my baby doll has prepared for me when I visit her during the weekend. Sometimes pulled pork, chicken chili, lasagna, etc. Or if I'm out of what she's prepared for me, I'll have a few cheeseburgers or an Al pastor burrito.0

I'm making lunch right now:
Chicken breast in tinfoil wrap with garlic and herbs
Broccoli and chopped peppers steamed with herbs
Ketchupppp (tons of sugar though so limited!)0 -
Leftovers from the night before
A big, nutritious smoothie
Salad with whatever is in the fridge0 -
Usually leftovers from the night before or a huge salad (with chicken if I have it)
A sandwich with fruit/veggies and string cheese if I'm away from home0 -
I think I've eaten scrambles eggs with veggies and meat for lunch every day for like two weeks, haha. Actually it's more like scrambled veggies with eggs...:) It's very filling, I recommend it.0
