Calorie-counting

Best Low Calorie Weekday Lunches

Hi all,

Have started to calorie count what I'm eating the past few weeks in an effort to lose a little weight (nothing drastic, maybe a stone at most). I wondered if anyone had any ideas for low calorie lunches during the working week? At the moment, as a teacher, I'm on school holidays so it has been easier to do at home, but when I go back to work, I don't want to be eating large meals at lunch and overdoing my calorie limit. We have a kettle and a microwave but no toaster.

Thanks in advance.

If I've had a big post-gym breakfast then I just have a smallish snacky lunch at work. Usually something like a couple of boiled eggs dipped in salt & pepper, some veggie sticks (carrot, celery), maybe a small pot of yogurt and some fruit. Or I take a flask of homemade veggie soup. A homemade sandwich (eg tuna mixed with cottage cheese or greek yogurt and chopped veg) and fruit.
