Long Day, pack a lunch

Skip the fast food and pack a lunch.

It takes a bit of effort, but it could make all the difference in the world. One meal a week picked up through the fast food window may not kill you, but it could sabotage your diet and fitness efforts.

Pack a lunch and a health snack to get you through that long shift and extra job.

• low fat turkey sandwich
• tuna lunch kit
• left over chicken breast with brown rice
• fruit
• almonds
• snack bar -look for something less that 200 calories
• water

How bad was lunch?

SUBWAY:

6" meatball marinara on wheat with cheese has -560 calories and 24 grams of fat, 11grams saturated fat. That means if you have a foot long you will take in 1120 calories and 22 grams of saturated fat and 3180 mg of sodium. The worst sandwich on the menu is the chicken and bacon ranch, but just barely. The Tuna sandwich is the 3rd highest with 530 calories and 31 grams of fat for the 6".
