Portable foods for work

I know that a lot of you work. What kinds of foods to you take to work to eat and how do you manage the small meals? I teach school but have a morning break and lunchtime, drinking is not a problem even in the classroom although I dont do it now cause I dont feel that it is professional to do that, however from a medical perspective it will be necessary. Help please?????

I don't work & I haven't had surgery. So, I don't know what everyone does. But if I were you, I'd tell the students they're required to bring a protein snack or meal in for you. At least once a month Wonder if they would buy that ??? Tammy

Nope, they would not do it but they would LOVE to eat my lunch! :P They always drool or at least peep to see what the teachers have and if we have a bit more we always share! The school lunch is awful, all carbs and fat. It is a crime and the kids pay about 5 bucks for it!!!

OMG !!! And the world wonders why there are so many fat people. And about $5.00 Your kidding right ??? That's !!! Oh well, share a boiled eggs with them. They are cheap, easy & good. Hey, you might could start selling lunches from your desk !!! Tammy

When I was fresh out I would bring my lunch... I would have a protein drink for breakfast on my way (this helps me as I pass McDonalds, Wards, Burger King, Krystals, Waffle House and another Wards) ---pure torture. Boiled eggs for snack...Get you a small 3 seperate container thing and put some sort of protein and green veggie and some fruit in it. Put the boiled eggs in a ziplock bag. Have cheese on hand. Beef Jerky for snacks... I am also fixing to get myself back into this routine. I have gotten into a bad habit of going to lunch with my friend and its not a good idea. Its poor choices and I am spending money on food that I shouldnt be eating. Either way its stupid. Gonna get me a 3way container and take cottage cheese, beets, and some eggs..

Good ideas! We dont have the time to go out so I will have to plan carefully!

you frogot the new Wendys by the gas station . hehehehehe I am in a mood today aint I lol. See what happens when I miss a meeting lol. Barry

Its funny how you knew that.. I can do good in the morning to pass Wendys cause they dont have breakfast. We missed you at the meeting. But you had bigger fishes to fry to than to worry bout us.

hehehehe it wasnt hard all ya have to know is Hattiesburg and once you mentioned Krystals I knew which way you were driving lol. Talk to you soon. Barry

I take things I can fix the night before. I take chicken salad, tuna salad, lettuce wraps (big lettuce leaf, ham or turkey, cheese all rolled up), soup, left overs from the night before dinner as we have a microwave we can use. I have one of those insulated lunch bags and I buy those ice paks and that keeps my stuff cool all day. I also take apples, bananas, cheese, nuts. Anything easy. The ice paks and lunch bag allow me to take whatever I want anywhere I go. First out from surgery, all you need is your protein drinks, and puddings, canned soups and stuff like that. Melissa
