Don`t Skip Lunch If You Want to Stay Thin
By Neil Stadford, Project Weight Loss Editor - Diet November 25, 2007
An important moment of your day is lunch because you usually ask “what should I eat?” Unfortunately, what you eat is not up to you all the time. It also depends on whether you`re at the office, go to the gym, have little time to eat, etc.
Here are a few suggestions for lunches in different situations: when you`re at work, when you`re on a diet, when you go the gym, when you`re in a rush, or when you have a difficult digestion.
When you`re on a diet.
You should eat a portion of 0.22 pounds of lean cheese with 0.50 pounds of tomatoes and a slice of bread. This lunch contains 285 calories and small amounts of carbohydrates. As a drink, you may have fresh orange juice. If you don`t like dairy products, replace the cheese with the same amount of beef or turkey steak.
When you go to the gym.
In this case try 1.76 ounces of pasta salad with 0.71 ounces of peace, 1.06 ounces of ham, and 0.71 ounces of Rumanian pressed cheese. This lunch has the necessary amounts of proteins, minerals, vitamins, and contains 540 calories. As an alternative, you may have rice salad instead of pasta, or a sandwich with ham, vegetables, and cheese.
The lunch for those who are always on the run.
If you`re always busy have a whole yogurt with a sliced fruit for lunch and five biscuits. The fruit may be an apple, a pear, half a banana, or 3.53 ounces of grapes or pineapple. If you feel tired and crave for something sweet, choose a vanilla pudding with three biscuits.
Lunch for those with digestion problems.
2.12 ounces of boiled rice with 1.06 ounces of carrots, 0.18 ounces of oil, the same amount of cheese, three slices of toast is a good combination for lunch in case of those who have problems with the digestion. The rice is easy to digest and will provide you the necessary amounts of carbohydrates and the carrots contain a lot of fibers.
