I just had a lovely lunch of salad and tuna. Some days I take in a wrap and that adds a bit of variety.

My go to office lunch is a 2 oz can of tuna in Water drained and mixed with fat free Salad Dressing, 4 wheat thins and a smal pre packed snack pack of fat free cottage cheese. No nuking required.

I like to make a cold Pasta salad (w/ veggies and sometimes added ham or chicken for extra protein); however, I use multi-grain Pasta by Barilla as it is loaded w/ Vitamins and Protein. I add fat free Robusto (or Zesty) Italian dressing and whatever veggies. You can add low fat or fat free cheese too (just make sure to keep your serving size under a cup).

Any chance you could talk to your work to see if they would allow a microwave or a toaster oven?

Traveling and being a consultant makes lunch a little hard on occasion. Key things I stick to include:

- tuna, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, avocado or mayo on toast or mini crackers

- sushi if I can buy some on the way or the night prior

- yoghurt, bran and fruit

- plate of salad, with Beans or cheese like feta or cheddar cubes

- prawns, smoked salmon or a boiled egg are also good as a lunch Protein if you need to eat cold food.

I to used to have this problem. For a while i did my protien shake at lunch instead of Breakfast. Then I started doing yogurt and a fruit or string cheese and some veggies with low cal veggie dip.

In still on liquid/soups. This is day 13! I got creative. Bought Carraba's chicken Soup asked them to hold the Pasta. Took it home blinded it. Hmmm. Had plenty to divide into 6 one ounce portions.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
