Try to keep away from processed lunch meat like bologna. Have Roast beef or sliced smoked turkey. Also, you don't have to just think "lunch meat anymore." You can either cook up a fresh whole chicken or buy a whole cooked chicken from the market and slice it up for your lunch or supper. It's much better tasting and healthier than lunch meat. If you like fish --- use salmon or sole or shrimp. You can make up your own meatballs and freeze them and take them out as you need them (do not buy meatballs ready made from the store because they are full of filler). If you are keeping your carbs pretty low -- you can use ham or sausages. As cool weather comes along --- take a nice thermos of thick stew or chili. Also --- make extra food for supper and take it the next day for lunch.

Tuna/chicken/egg salad with whole wheat crackers is always a winner!

Also baby carrots dipped in hummus is awesome. Best of luck!

I bought these little containers where you put the lid in the freezer, so anything you put in stays cold. Thy are from Wal-Mart in the back to school section.

      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.
