lunch in the office?
for you guys that are at work 9-5 or whatever, what are you bringing in to eat for lunch. Its hard to bring in just cold chicken breast. Even when you heat it up, its just too dry and plain.
any tips?

Every day I bring 30 oz of chicken and 24 oz of yams. I cook the chicken every 2 days. You have to buy the good chicken breasts that are thick enough to keep the juice. I cut off all the fat and sprinkle salt free miss dash then bake in the oven. No prob at alll. I also eat salsa with mine.

Hey Mark, lose the carrots! They are in the upper rankings on the GI scale believe it or not. If this is something you wish to steer clear of, better to take it out.

Hey Swole, thanks for the advice. I assume that's you in your avatar so therefore I will listen to anything you have to say. What's your stance on my eating of kidney and black beans every day at about noon? I work out from 8AM to about 9AM if that helps. Mark

Before you cook them. Be careful because cooking something too much can destroy some of the nutrients. Costco has big bags of chicken for a great price.

As far as including them other times of the day, well, nope. Not for your goals.

lifesabitch - you can't go wrong with the 5lb ice glazed frozen breast pieces at costco. seriously get like 2 bags for the week and just cook as you go - they taste awesome because of the ice glazed (not susceptible to freezer burn) and they have all the tendons and clear nasty stuff cut off of them already.
