What Lunch Do You Take To Work?



Recommended Posts

Hello Fellow Bandsters,

After making a career change, I am now in a position to brown bag my lunch. I was wondering if anyone has an band friendly lunch ideas. Thanks.

I prefer to stay with a simple, small salad. I use romaine lettuce, slice up a hard boiled egg, and add an ounce of Boar's Head deli turkey or roast beef, then just ~1/2 teaspoon FF/SF Salad Dressing.

I make and freeze Soup in small portions for something hot, and usually have with a couple of cruskits or similar. I also bring Snacks.

Today I had greek yogurt with bananau and walnuts (half a cup total) for morning tea, high fibre crisbreads with some tuna, avocado, sliced Tomato and cucumber for lunch and have some carrot sticks and almond butter for afternoon tea. Sounds like a lot but I have a lot of really small containers!

I love veggie patties or lettuce wraps for lunch. They are simple, don't weigh me down and i can pack it up quick before heading out the door. I also like to keep almonds on hand for a good high Protein snack.< /p>

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
