Hi Mark. You didn't elaborate what you do for work, whether it be a desk job, or even a construction/outdoor type job. Or maybe you're having a hard time finding the time to eat? Don't know if you're possibly having a hard time having access to a refrigerator and/or a microwave, so I'll answer the question as best I can. If you have a job that you don't have access to refrigeration, I would recommend a small cooler. High protein lunches can consist of a couple of slices of cheese and/or low fat lunchmeat. You can also purchase protein bars at GNC. However, BJ's Club and Sam's Club have Carb Solutions bars, same as GNC, but for much less (less than $16 per box of 12, GNC's price, I hear, is about $3.00/bar. BIG savings!). You can bring a shake, nuts, etc. There's lots of ways to get your protein in while you work!
