I usually have the same thing everyday. I am a creature of habit.(I just have to make good habits now :) ) I eat 1/2 full snack size ziplock bag of Special K (that's as close to measuring as I get), sugar free Jello, & a tangerine. It fills me up & it is very easy. I can keep all of it in my classroom so I don't have to worry about fixing lunches everyday.

Today is a turkey sandwich: Arnold select sandwich thins, deli sliced turkey, 2% cheese slice, mustard. 195 calories, 17g Protein, 24g carbs.

Also for Breakfast I make a burrito: ½ whole wheat low carb tortilla, ¼ cup egg beaters, 1/8 cup 2% shredded cheese, 1 oz deli sliced ham, bit of hot sauce or taco sauce. That has 150 calories and 19g protein, 13g carbs. It's really good!

Todd - What do you make your chicken salad with? I'm always looking for new ideas.

Most of these other tuna / chicken ideas sound awesome!

I'm definitely a seafood lover, and the shrimp and spinach salad sound soooo nummy! As does the smoked salmon.

These are all great ideas :-)

JOJO1 - your salad idea sound wonderful also. I love canned salmon. So, do you use any kind of recipe? Or just use whatever amount you're feeling up to that day ?

My lunch is usually the previous night's dinner. I always cook double portions so when I'm clearing the food away after dinner, I just pack everyone's lunch for the next day.

Thursday - chicken tenderloin (about 3 oz) that was dipped in egg and a mixture of flour and French's french fried onion rings and then baked and a small spring greens salad with caesar dressing.

Wednesday - 3 oz crab cake and a small salad made with spring greens and blue cheese dressing.

Tuesday - spinach and cheese filled ravioli with a small salad and italian dressing

Monday - 3 oz of thin sliced roast beef spread with a bit of mustard, sprinkled with shredded asiago cheese and then rolled up with a green onion. Small salad with caesar dressing and garbanzo Beans.

If I bring my lunch, it's usually tuna salad made with chopped celery, pepper, Old Bay seasoning and 1tsp of real mayo. I can't stand the low fat mayo; it ruins my whole lunch. I'd rather use less of the real thing. I also have some no sugar added apple sauce and 3 pieces of whole grain melba toast.

If I eat out, I'll treat myself to some grilled fresh fish and sauteed spinach at my favorite seafood joint, Legal Seafood. :)

Dontgoggilme . I'm on mushies too but we still eat lunch! I'd be interested in hearing what people on mushies eat as well.

I went out to lunch yesterday to a Mexican food restaurant. I selected a side order of refried Beans. It was delicious and I felt like part of the group. I know I missed my vege, but I don't think that is going to do much damage just this once.

Favorite mushie lunch so far. pureed chinese chicken and broccoli. I separated the broccoli and chicken before blending, measure 1/4 cup of each. Add 1/4 c unsweetened applesauce on the side and yum! I froze the leftovers in 1/4 cup little balls and pull them out and microwave when I need a quick lunch. Delicious.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
