Is pasta salad a healthy lunch?!

I’m trying to loose a few pounds, especially around my stomach area, I’ve cut out bread as much as possible and have been taking pasta salads to work for lunch instead . I admit I’m not doing much exercise so I can’t expect miracles but I’m not noticing a difference at all for cutting out bread! What are healthy lunches to take to work?! And any tips to loose a few pounds would be very appreciated!

I love pasta salad but it's not low calorie!
Cutting out bread isn't a magic weight loss trick. You need to be in caloric deficit. Salad isn't actually a great low calorie meal since to make it tasty and filling you need to add some carbs and/or protein and dressing. It stacks up.
