I did Fast800 for around 10 days and lost 7 pounds, I then fell off the wagon. I want to start again tomorrow but am SO bored of salad for lunch at work.

What other (simple) options are there?

You can add a portion of all of the above to a basic salad base.

Experiment with different bases / leaves.

Personally I can't stand iceberg so travel further to shops / greengrocer who does Roundhead lettuce then switch with spinach, watercress, rocket, lambs lettuce, lollo rosso, baby leaf bags, Italian bistro bags et

Pinch of nom also do a great coleslaw recipe which can be low calorie as it's mainly yoghurt
