What do you do for lunch?

I was just wondering what everyone does for lunch? I usually go out with the guys to a pub, diner, or a fast food place and wind up spending 5-10 bucks every day. It really adds up over the course of a week, so I've decided to start bringing my own lunch to work to save some loot.

Depends on how much money I have.
Sometimes I swipe a hot dog from work or we go pick something up and bring it back so we can chow down. Lately we have been on the Mexican kick because we found a new resturant near us. I need to start taking my own lunch also.

Lunch? I'm not familiar with that concept....

Wendy's

#2 with a mello yellow.

Today it was warmed up leftover bbq porkchops with glass of Coke, and now snacking on Cheese Nips. Yum.

Wendy's

#6 Spicy Chicken No-Mayo Biggie Sized w/ Coke


McDonald's

#4 Double QTR PND w/o Cheese SuperSized w/ Coke


Subway

Meatball sub combo (forgot number) footlong, white, parmazean (spelling?) nothing else. Lays Classic Chips w/ Coke.

I find the pub's the ideal solution, the more you drink, the less of the afternoon you notice or care about.

Uh.. as a general rule, I eat.

Was this a trick question?... :)

Usually a sandwich and veggies unless I'm in a mood where I don't detest the thought of cooking. Then I might even throw something nice on the grill. I looooooooove fast food but can't do it these days. Trying to wean myself for good. :(

It really depends. If we have work, I wont eat a lunch. It we dont have much work, Ill usually go out to Subway, browse around the mall and waste some time...

Well for the last week and the next several weeks :( I take my crutch bang the top of the ceiling (I'm set up in the basement). My wife and I then turn on our T-5100 Motorola Walkie Talkies (the blasted things eat up batteries if kept on all the time). I ask her what's for lunch? And she say's whateverthahell I bring down to you! Now stop banging on the friggin' ceiling I'm playing BugleBingo! ;) :D

hahahahahahaha :D

I bring my lunch usually, and eat it in a common break/dining area. Where I work, it's mostly women (medical claims office), so I just keep my mouth shut, and just watch and listen. There's more entertainment and drama than any show or movie you'll ever see. :rolleyes:

humm ate

I hear ya Sowulo. I think I've lost almost ten pounds since I started my own business and I wasn't heavy to begin with. Lunch just seems to have disappeared out of my daily routine.

:(

Bag lunch - surprise every day as I don't make it myself.

Well, I *am* married :D

Whatever I feel like at lunchtime, which usually occurs around 2PM when the rush dies down a bit :rolleyes:

I usually eat once a day, sometime between 2pm and 2am....I don't understand the whole breakfast, lunch, and dinner thing.....If our bodies need fuel they tell us...we get hungry. I eat first chance I get once I start feeling hungry--sometimes two or three times a day--sometimes not at all. I have no doubt that when we follow the old, "It's noon, I must be hungry." or, "I just got home from work--time for dinner." is when we start packing on the pounds....

Agreed. Eat when hungry, otherwise its just something to kill the time

...and pack on the pounds..... ;)

Actually I am trying to eat 4 or 5 meals a day, but it is tough when you only get one lunch break(that I spend the entire time reading through). I am working out a lot now, mixed with keeping up with an extremely active girlfriend. The body needs fuel, and if you eat several small meals a day, the metabolism actually goes through the roof. My biggest problem is keeping it sensible, but I have all but stopped eating all fast food. Of course, I also don't keep track of actual weight either, I vary 5 - 7 pounds every couple of days depending on the time, due to the intensity of my lifting, so it is not really worth it.

Lunch? what is this l.. lu.. lunch you speak of?

If i dont go home for lunch, we usually hit the feeding trough (AKA Golden Corral Buffet). Sometimes on fridays we get mexican or go to Hooters for some wings. I try to eat at home as often as possible though.

One word.....Nooner. Honestly

I grab some food and stare at the hotties.

today for my break i went to seven eleven and got some nachose with cheese and a slurpee. ;)

Used a completed Subway Sub Club card to get a free 6" sub today. And for later, I have a completed Bagel club card for a free bagel w/ cream cheese. :D

usually the mess hall
$5 all you can eat any kind of food.
very gluttonuos and wasteful place but you can't beat the price
