All the lovely lunches <3 Not doing much as far as lunch goes, my hubby's schedule is crazy this week and my lunches are all salads this week.

Hope you can keep up!! I am 5'61/2" currently at 145lbs. I am aiming to be 120lbs.

Ok, the bears in a hot tub is super cute!! Can I get the recipe for the broccoli/Japanese sweet tots?

@sagj looks like a yummy lunch and do you eat your salad mix without any dressing? Yep I am lost but at least I know who Tom Cruise is, that counts, I think? And hubby forgot his lunch, but I hope he picks it up later. Leftover skinny taste Asian fried rice with chicken.

They are yummy. They are the "water chips" to my little ones. So I put lunch in bento boxes, it counts right? Tuna onigiri for the kiddos, and for me spinach, tomato, carrot salad with Italian dressing in bottom box and top is 1.5 serving of rice with tuna(curry powder, avocado, sriracha, onion, pickle, and mustard.)…

Hubby's simple lunch today. Ham and cheese sandwich on wheat bread, smokehouse almonds, carrots, and some cool ranch doritos.

It still amazes me how different we all are. ^_^ Awesome job everyone! I have gained 5-7lbs trying to find my maintenance, so been a bit down and through these just reminds me I can still accomplish my goals too! <3

@Narcissora Love the fish lunch! New people just means more lovely bento lunch photos Hubby ate everything but his brownie yesterday, which he did eat later. Yay!! Ok hubby's lunch today is meatloaf sandwich. It is in pieces in the box, but 2 turkey meatloaf cupcakes, cheese, sesame seed hamburger bun (toasted), and some…

Yes the pizza bento looks good, sorry the pizza is gross. I have to be dairy free (however testing the limits this week with cheese. I miss butter, cheese, ice cream, and normal milk :( ) and dairy free cheese is sooooo not worth it. Scrapes, so far I put mine in a baggie to use later or use it with the meal I am making,…

I really need to drive to the nearest Trader's Joe and check that place out! Made lunch for hubby, leftovers and apples hey fruit is in there this time, yay! Everyone's lunch are so lovely.

Me too! No bentos until next week. I am going to meal plan, prep/freeze things so I have more opts. I think this week sometime I will make a lunch for kids and I too!!

5'6 1/2, hey that 1/2 counts! I am 33, 143 lbs avg, TDEE method, maintenance mode (was doing Neat before, so my numbers are a mix) and right now eat daily from 2000-3500. Yes that crazy of a range, and right now my weekly avg is 2400-2550. My weight is not stable right now, so not 100% sure where I will end up eating, but…

Instead of just lurking, I shall contribute once. Breakfast today is puerh tea, turkey breakfast sausage with corn and onions, and homemade biscuits w/butter. Sorry the picture is blurry :( I use kids plate too, so it is not all pretty but yummy none the less.

So yummy looking! And again not making lunches for hubby >.< However he has been sick so that is why :( Love the bentos everyone is posting!!!!

@Narcissora All Things For Sale is where I have gotten my items. That and my local grocery store had some boxes too. There is also JBox, Amazon, Bento&Co, and I know I am missing some. Also, if you can find an Asian market in your area they will have some too. Hubby's lunch on Friday was chicken chili, fritos, cheese, and…

Totoro was the first request movie of the day!! @FitGeekery love the boxes! Those are mini-cups in a set, Linked Here for you. ^_^ @FitGeekery and @SnuggleSmacks I would make lunch but than I have 3 kids who would also want lunch made, while I could do it in the morning, I am honestly just to lazy, in a way. I rather chase…

I will not lie, I want that box! However, I am a home body with no where to go :( If I ever get a job, I am so buying more bento supplies and boxes!! I want all things Totoro too. That and Sailor Moon, but I am a kid at heart, plus my kids love the too ^_^ And Kiki's and Totoro sets go well together. @SpecialKitty7 I want…

It is awesome to see so many new people here!! You can use any boxes and any type of food, so to anyone who wants to show off your homemade lunches please do! I show mine off and they are plain and not Japanese at all. ^_^ (Speaking of plain and boring) Ham & cheese sandwiches with peanut putter m&ms. I wish I could get…

Hubby's lunch for tomorrow is a repeat of chili and Fritos And here was the dinner I packed when we went out tonight. I got grilled chicken to go with it. Carrots/spinach with soy sauce, soy sauce in the container, rice with butter and my first attempt at tamagoyaki. This came in at 406 calories not including the chicken.

So starting the week out with lunch number one, a sandwich for hubby. It is leftover salisbury steak, with cheese on pan francés with au jus in the cups. I made him two, one for lunch and one for later since his lunch time is so early. This was a lunch I made for the weekend that I did not eat, due to the fact that it got…

Chili and Frito's for hubby lunch today, so around 470 cals today for his lunch. Ok, so went a whole week making him lunches, now to make them better this next week! Honestly, hubby and I have always clashed on food choices. I like my vegetables plain and he like them with butter, salt, cheese, etc LOL. I have yet to find…

Gal 5'6.5" with a small frame 33 y/o 142lbs NEAT (I eat back 2/3 of exercise cals.) Poorly attempting a reverse diet and trying to find my TDEE via NEAT. Ummm so like net I have been eating at 2400- 2500 weekly average for the last 3-4 weeks. I have been gaining some but weight is leveling out now. BF% Way higher than it…

So lunch is still leftovers and no photos however yesterday was leftover pasta from Skinny Taste which I add a good amount of vegetables to and today's was homemade tortillas with cheese and leftover pork taco meat from last night. Both meals are under 500 cals. I think for tomorrows lunch I might do chicken chili or…

Today's lunch was leftover mac and cheese with chili, sadly no picture. However, I made him one, so there is a plus. I also love JustHungry and JuntBento website. I make Maki's strawberry jam, steamed buns, miso, and learn just so much from her site and it has not cost me anything. As far as cooking, lunch is about what…

Well the week starts tomorrow so hubby's lunch has been made. Hot dogs and left over fried rice.

:( I don't know why they work, maybe the size of the egg or because I steam them? Maybe the bear ear goddess needs to visit you? I will try to send her your way! ^_^ Everyone's lunches look so yummy. I need to stop being lazy and step up my game a bit. Also need to take a trip to the Asian market and I might pick up some…

Awesome thread, great to see everyone's progress! I am 5'6 1/2" with a small frame. My highest weight was well over 250, but my start weight was 246 and I am around 140-142lbs right now. It has taken me about 2 years with lots of up and downs to lose this 100+ pounds. I am currently taking a break from losing weight and…

I use this mold with large eggs. I steam my eggs, peel them while hot, put them in the egg mold, let them sit for about 5 mins, and so far, all of them have worked out to looking just like the molds.

So I have done a few plain lunches here and there but have not been up to making my husband lunch at all lately :( Here is a lunch/dinner I made yesterday when going out due to my youngest being sick so we where on the go. It was 637 cals, chili with hot dogs, rice, and raw carrot and while not pretty at all, it was yummy.…

I like oatmeal squares, french toast crunch, multi grain cheerios, and so many more. When I could eat diary I love the overnight oats with greek yogurt or greek yogurt with fruit and cereal. I second getting some plain oats and not flavored ones and adding your own things to it. There is even savory oatmeal recipes if you…
