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 have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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.
