Brown Bagging ...
 

I stopped buying my lunch at work and now bring a lunch everyday to save money so I can buy Sebilles .. :uhuh:

Why, you are quite smitten,, aren't you....

I do it so I can eat good food, and not crap. The money saved is icing on the cake :btu:

I brown bag it so the wife can have money to buy sebilles or whatever else she wants:wall:

That's impressive !!!! Bonus points ,, chorlesterol went from 243-165 .. all my other #'s just as dramatic .. I'm better than when i was 25 .. (smoking 3 packs a day then),, after a self distructive youth last 20yrs. have been damage control .. If I knew you then i could have been a leper ..

tavern stress diet? :rotf2:

I brown bag lunch and breakfast....same deal here....I dropped over 50 lbs since I started doing it...(Actually 60....but a few creeped back on :hee:)

Who can name the single most popular food for brown bagging in the US

I don't brown bag my local pizza joint makes a great garden salad with chicken strips. $5 every day that isn't bad.

Peanut butter and Jelly would be my guess

I have put on 7 pounds sense I got laid off June 6th Back to work tomorrow hopefully being busy will help to lose a few extra pounds

I always bring my lunch, and water

An Apple

peebee and jay

TUNA FISH SANDWICH

187 Billion dollars a year I heard on TV...

During the summer I do a bag salad lunch. Topped SPARINGLYwith a lite salad dressing. During the cooler/solder months I bring in canned soup, the "healthy" type that are lower in fat, cholesterol and sodium.
My personal fave is the grilled chicken and sausage gumbo. :drool:

I also drink water and TRY to eat some fruit & veggies to balance things out. I'm not loosing weight, but I'm not putting any on either.
I will try and tweak the menu so as to promote some weight loss.
