Im very mad at myself. I made grilled shrimp last night for dinner and completely forgot to make extra for lunch today so I didnt bring any food. We have a cafeteria here at my job but im not sure what i should get. We have a salad bar and i can have the cook make me a grilled piece of chicken. They dont have low fat dressings but they do have balsamic vinegarette. Ill put some fresh veggies on the salad and call it a day. I did bring my snacks. i think ill go to the grocery store and buy a few lean cuisines for this purpose. ive stopped eating sandwiches and salads for lunch because i dont seem to be content after. So i like to bring leftover meat and veggies.

Anyone forget your lunch or have a suggestion what to eat?

Don't worry! Hihi. You seem upset over it, while - it's one meal! Sonds like a plan to have some grilled chicken with leafy salad. That's what I had for breakfast actually. With some walnuts, eggwhite and mayonaise.

If you can get groceries then you could make a few fibre crackers with feta cheese or brie. Protein & fats to satiate you like the shrimp would have.

Goodluck!

Yea ill get some groceries after work. While ive been doing fad diets my whole life im new to calorie counting. I try and find things that fill me up longer because i HATE being super hungry to where your stomach actually hurts. if i dont feel like cooking ive been eating eggs with a slice of whole wheat bread. i love my first 9.8 lbs pretty quick but most likely water weight. Now for the hard part. Actually losing fat. I havent started exercising but plan to soon. Ive been giving my body time to adjust because ive significantly cut my cals.

When I forget my lunch I usually grab a salad with chicken and veggies...and no dressing.You might find you don't need it!

Next time though you might do as I say: "plan for the unplanned." I always try to keep something on hand at work in case I'm running short on time and can't make lunch or if I forget it. It came in handy when one time I ran out of the house and left my lunchbag on the table!

I also research nearby options and have several meals I can get that I know are "safe." The last school I worked at had a Panera 5 minutes away so I had several meals that I knew I could just call up, order, and go pick up.

I know this doesn't help you NOW but hopefully it'll be handy for next time!
