12-hr shifts
For those of you who take your food for you 12-hour shifts and stay within moderate calories, what does a typical day of breakfast, lunch, and dinner look like for you..if you don't mind sharing.

Healthy lunches to take to work
The cafeteria at my job makes some truly delicious food, but not always nutritious (hello Taco Tuesday!). I need some suggestions, other than a boring ole salad, that I can take to work. Some days I work 12 hours, so I need enough for lunch and dinner. Thanks in advance!

Starting for the last time!
I could really use some new POSITIVE MFP friends! I am in my 40's, and I need to lose about 30 pounds for many reasons! I am signed up for a marathon and I have a closet full of cute clothes that I can't fit in to. I'm ready to change my life! Send me a friend request if you're in a similar boat.
