What do you ladies usually eat for lunch?

I'm here eating my 100 cal pita thingy with deli meat and mustard, a yogurt, and an apple......

I love routine but sometimes it just gets old.

    Main dish: either leftovers, PB&J, or a big salad with cheese and a hard boiled egg

    Sides: sometimes leftovers, carrots, fruit, yogurt, string cheese

    I try to keep lunch pretty healthy so I can justify a small dessert in the evening. I also eat a morning snack and an afternoon snack.

  • Lunch? Oh right, it's lunch time! Better go dig through the fridge and find something...

    Usually I take leftovers, but last night there weren't any.

  • I got a sandwich from the hospital cafeteria.  I had a turkey and american cheese sandwich on flax and grain bread with a little mayo, lettuce, and bannana peppers.

    A dill pickle on the side and a small baggie of chips....and a Wild Cherry Pepsi.

    Just had my lunch dessert of a York Peppermint Patty.

  • A salad, w/turkey, or half a turkey or PB sandwich, crackers, a cheese and a fruit leather. 

    Sometimes I'll have a yogurt or some leftover.  I need to get back on the wagon and plan things better.

  • If its not leftovers, Lean Cuisine or Kashi meal or pj&j with pretzels/chips and cream cheese (or cheese stick) with some kind of fruit. I have a greek yogurt for snack or pretzels, depends on how I feel that day.

  • Most often leftovers of some sort.

    I get bored with food pretty easily, so our dinner menu is pretty varied.

    My back-up is always a HC or LC meal with a veggie.

  • I usually bring a piece of fruit for breakfast.

    Lunch is usually a sandwich: deli meat, tuna, PB&J (accompanied by goldfish), or soup (sometimes with a grilled cheese or whole grain English muffin), or pasta with sauce & cheese, or leftovers from dinner/restaurant, occasional homemade mac & cheese.

    And I bring a yogurt and/or granola bar in case I get hungry in the afternoon (like when I only have soup for lunch) but don't always eat it.

  • I usually get something for the hospital cafeteria. And that could be really anything from soup to salad to a main course. If I remember I will bring leftovers but I usually forget it.
  • its almost lunch time?!

    Usually they are leftovers with either a fruit or veggie.

  • I've been eating soup for lunch. Boring, I know. Once a week I order out usually a salad

  • My actual lunch is usally a frozen lunch (Smart Ones, Lean Cuisine, Michalina's Lean Gormet, etc.). I try to keep them as healthy as possible. If I don't have one of those, I'll take left overs if I can. Once or twice a month I'll get Subway or similar.

    For snacks, on a daily basis, I bring a banana, a TLC granola bar, carrots, and a yogurt. Sometimes I'll mix it up, but that's my usual. Sometimes I eat everything I bring, sometimes I don't.

  • I have pretty much the same as Jo, minus the salad and egg :)

    Today it was leftover pizza and piergoes. I brought apples and PB crackers for snacks.

    ETA: packing lunch is an art for me. I ALWAYS eat everything I bring but so I don't like to bring "just in case" snacks, but if I don't pack enough I end up buying something. This happens pretty often Embarrassed

    I have a whole drawer dedicated to snacks, gum, and tea to avoid going out and buying stuff. I'm not even joking. I'm constantly eating or drinking something.

  • I stopped eating lunch meat over a year ago so I was on a PB&J kick for a while, like months. I started eating PB with my breakfast and I didn't want it twice in a row so I've started a veggie sandwich kick. I make whole wheat bread (or buy ww pitas) and put spinach, almonds, cranberries, carrots, tomato, and hummus. So good! I will eat it with a piece of fruit and a small piece of dark chocolate.
