FYI - some of the Irvines or Watties frozen meals have the same number of points as the WW ones and can be much cheaper to buy (often 2 for $5). Or you could make extra dinner and take that for lunch either next day or freeze to take later in week.
If you have rice for dinner you could make some fried rice to take for lunch (not if you're preggers though!). YUM!
For a sweet treat at the moment I've been making WW jelly with canned natural fruit in it then I put some light yoghurt on top. Delish and 0 points on their new core plan so even better!]]> Sun, 12 Aug 2007 09:07:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9562&PID=195729&title=ww-lunches-for-working-mums-dads#195729 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9562&PID=195018&title=ww-lunches-for-working-mums-dads#195018 Author: caliandjack

Pak n Save have WW meals on special this week as well. I've been having those. I hate sandwiches. I buy those frozen meals - WW, McCains Healthy choice or Lean Cuisine and have one of those.

I got a recipe book out of the library and am going to make roast vege salad for next weeks lunches.]]> Fri, 10 Aug 2007 11:50:18 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9562&PID=195018&title=ww-lunches-for-working-mums-dads#195018 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9562&PID=194996&title=ww-lunches-for-working-mums-dads#194996 Author: shaz

I really need to do WW again but I'm not motivated at the mo. OH well maybe this will get me started.
Here are some ideas I used to do while I was working.

Salad - mixed lettuce, cucumber, feta, red onion, cherry tomatoes. Then take a can of either salmon or tuna and I always had a bottle of balsamic vinegar at work.

Bread roll and cup of soup.

Yoghurt and fruit salad (fresh or canned)or banana.

Crackers with cottage cheese and tomato (take your own sharp knife so tomatoes can be cut fresh.

I aways had arrowroot or gingernut biscuits to snack on it was about 1 point for 2 biscuits I think. It felt like I was getting a treat and really good for that 3pm sugar craving.

I just went down to Foodtown (in search of exciting lunch ideas lol) and they have almost 1/2 price WW frozen meals, some only have 2 points!

So for lunch I'm having Beef Burgundy with a wholegrain roll YUM ]]> Tue, 31 Jul 2007 10:57:34 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9562&PID=189287&title=ww-lunches-for-working-mums-dads#189287 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9562&PID=189203&title=ww-lunches-for-working-mums-dads#189203 Author: Freesia

We have those Tuna and Cracker Snakit's. It's a little tin of tuna (can get flavoured ones) and they come with a few crackers too. But we butter a couple pieces of bread and take them to work with the tuna, then come lunchtime you just need to put the tuna into the bread and there's your fresh sandwich. Could pop salad items in it too I guess. Then we eat the leftover tuna with the crackers.

One of my fav sandwiches is lettuce & marmite and it's really good pointwise for WW too.]]> Tue, 31 Jul 2007 09:33:09 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9562&PID=189203&title=ww-lunches-for-working-mums-dads#189203 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9562&PID=189200&title=ww-lunches-for-working-mums-dads#189200 Author: Paws

I'll sometimes make up lunches in the weekend to freeze....like a tuna bake, a pasta or rice dish or something like that.

Otherwise sammies and rolls.]]> Tue, 31 Jul 2007 09:28:27 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9562&PID=189200&title=ww-lunches-for-working-mums-dads#189200 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9562&PID=189197&title=ww-lunches-for-working-mums-dads#189197 Author: Guests

ham and salad sandwich or a salad were mine. You could do soup perhaps?

This is for those doing WW who are working too.

What do you do for lunch?

I'm finding the evening meal is fine because I've been using the cook books and pre-plan the week but trying to sort out lunches that can be made quickly/night before and will be ok to sit in a manky office fridge for a couple of hours really has me stumped!]]> Tue, 31 Jul 2007 08:37:27 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9562&PID=189167&title=ww-lunches-for-working-mums-dads#189167
