I'm Running Out of Lunch Ideas - Any suggestions.



Recommended Posts

I didn't bring my lunch today and I want to have something good. I'm leaning towards a small chilli from Wendy's and one of their low cal grilled chicken wraps. I would only have to spend $2.50 and be full. My job is near a lot of restaurants. Who has a good lapband lunch that eat that maybe I can go buy from one of the restaurants around here? I'm running out of lunch ideas

Have you tried the wrap? Can you eat it? One small bowl of Wendy's chili is plenty for me. I normally don't even finish the entire thing at lunch time.

I guess it depends on your restriction, but if you've never tried it for lunch, you may want to just start with the chili and go from there.

Refried Beans (I ask for onions in addition) & cheese from Taco Bell is also good. Or the filling from a variety of their burritos.

Thanks Ladies,

I can eat half of the chilli and half of the wrap, I usually let one of my daughters eat the rest when I take it home. The grilled chicken wrap is delicious. I go in for a fill on Friday so I'm hoping then that I will only be able to eat half of one and non of the other after that. Keep your fingers crossed for me. Thanks Indio thanks for the recipe, I buy a lot of ground turkey and I'm always looking for other ways to cook it. I've copied the recipes and I will make some tomorrow as I didn't thaw out any ground turkey.

I settled for a mini sub minus the bottom bread from Jersey Mikes, with a lot of lettuce, the sub is about 3 to 4 inches and I can only eat 3/4 of it with out the bottom bread so it's like a half sandwich. But I have lunch ideas for tomorrow thanks to you two.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
