HEYLP! Blue collar lunch?!



Recommended Posts

Does anyone have good lunch ideas for someone who works outside?? I need something that will survive about 4hours in a cooler with cold packs. I go back to work tomorrow and I'm stressing out over what to pack/eat!

What phase are you in for foods?

Hard boiled eggs or edamame and garbanzo bean salad. Soups in a thermos. Yogurt frozen before you pack it. If you can stomach it at the point chicken salad made with plain Greek yogurt or smashed avacodo.

YES!! Thanks. Just picked up some Starkist. Also some stuff to make turkey salads. My VSG date was 7/11(almost 5 weeks) and I'm on solids (no red meat/pork yet) and I'm doing great but I've had the luxury of a microwave and fridge at home. Tomorrow I'm back to the grind (although I'll probably spend the day in retraining at my garage). Got a nice big 36oz RTIC bottle and a case or Propel to keep me liquefied. B)

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
